🚨 Official: June was the worst month in the history of spot Bitcoin ETFs
It seems that big money decided to take a summer vacation. June 2026 closed with an absolute record for American spot Bitcoin ETFs - a whopping $4.5 billion was "taken out" of funds.
This outflow even eclipsed the difficult February 2025 ($3.56 billion) and became the main driver of the market decline.
📉 What is known in numbers:
➡️ The main blow: Almost 77-79% of the total June outflow fell on the market leader - the IBIT fund from BlackRock. Due to its large volumes, it lost over $3.5 billion.
➡️ $BTC price: Amid the capitulation of ETF investors, the main cryptocurrency fell by 20.48% in a month - the worst monthly result since the crypto winter of 2022.
➡️ Market sentiment: The Fear & Greed Index fell to 17 points (extreme fear zone).
🔍 Why are institutional investors fleeing?
1. Macroeconomics: The US Federal Reserve's tight policy and high interest rates make classic bonds more attractive, and venture capital is flowing into the shares of AI giants.
2. Market fatigue: Investors who entered the highs cannot withstand a prolonged flat and decline, recording losses.
3. Domino effect: The general slowdown in activity even from whales like MicroStrategy added fuel to the fire.
❓ What's next?
Due to such a failed June, the total YTD inflow (since the beginning of the year) in ETFs turned negative for the first time and is about -$5 billion. This is a serious structural alarm for the market.
