BIT: Bitcoin Faces Seasonal Pressure in June; Multiple Catalysts Could Drive Short-Term Rebound

According to independent analyst Markus Thielen, Bitcoin is down 16% year-to-date and is entering its historically seasonally weak June window—over the past decade, June’s average return has been just +0.7%.

Analysis: Demand for crypto ETF exposure diverges, BTC sentiment cools notably, HYPE sees inflows

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have experienced net capital outflows for nine consecutive trading days, totaling approximately $2.84 billion. This marks the longest consecutive losing streak since the product's launch in 2024, surpassing the previous record set on February 8, 2025. BlackRock's IBIT was the primary source of these outflows.Analysts indicate that this round of capital outflows reflects a notable cooling in institutional demand for Bitcoin ETF exposure. Meanwhile, the market is showing signs of divergence: Hyperliquid-related ETFs and certain XRP spot ETFs continue to record capital inflows. In contrast, spot Ethereum ETFs have also faced capital outflows for 13 consecutive days, with cumulative outflows reaching approximately $694 million. This suggests that capital within crypto asset ETFs is undergoing a reallocation. (Cointelegraph)

Wintermute: Institutional Buying Dries Up, Crypto Market Diverges from Stock Market

Wintermute stated that, as of May 25, BTC was trading at approximately $76,600 (down 1.5% weekly), while ETH traded at around $2,140 (down 1.7% weekly). Meanwhile, the U.S. equity market’s S&P 500 Index hit a new all-time high during the same period—highlighting a pronounced divergence between crypto and equities. BTC spot ETFs saw outflows of roughly $1.26 billion for the week, bringing cumulative outflows over two weeks to over $2 billion. Institutional buying—previously instrumental in driving BTC from $70,000 to $80,000—has clearly receded. The ETH/BTC ratio hit a fresh 10-month low, down 35% cumulatively from its August peak. On the macro front, the University of Michigan’s Consumer Sentiment Index plunged to a historic low of 44.8, while the one-year inflation expectation rose to 4.8%. NVIDIA reported Q1 revenue growth of 85% year-on-year and issued a Q2 revenue guidance of $91 billion—but saw virtually no after-hours reaction, suggesting AI-related trades are already fully priced in. Wintermute noted that BTC’s key support currently lies between $75,000 and $76,000; holding this range could enable a retest of $80,000, whereas a break below would rapidly open the $70,000–$72,000 zone. The near-term direction hinges on whether institutional capital returns to the market.

Analyst: HYPE and AI Tokens May Lead the Next Altcoin Season as Market Risk Appetite Returns

Hyperliquid has recently significantly outperformed the broader market. Its token, HYPE, hit an all-time high following the launch of two related ETFs in the United States. Meanwhile, European traders are accelerating their migration to the platform due to restricted access to perpetual contracts on regulated exchanges. Market analyst Michael van de Poppe stated that with Hyperliquid's continued rally and renewed interest in AI-related crypto projects, signs of improving risk appetite are emerging in the altcoin market. Hyperliquid’s expansion into tokenized stocks, commodities, and pre-IPO assets is strengthening the on-chain asset tokenization trend. He suggested that if market sentiment continues to improve, HYPE’s price could target $100 or even higher.However, Michael van de Poppe also stressed that while Hyperliquid holds a short-term advantage, Solana offers greater long-term investment certainty, transitioning from a "speculative ecosystem" to institutional-grade infrastructure. In the AI track, he noted that NEAR Protocol and Bittensor remain significantly undervalued, citing a disconnect between their fundamental growth and valuations. He pointed out that NEAR’s revenue growth potential and Bittensor’s subnet expansion could support higher valuation ranges. Additionally, he indicated that the privacy sector retains long-term demand, but fully anonymous systems face regulatory pressure. The future is more likely to be dominated by zero-knowledge proofs and compliant privacy solutions.On the macro level, Michael van de Poppe highlighted that bond yields and central bank policies remain the core drivers of the crypto market, with changes in Japanese government bond yields potentially serving as a key barometer.

Analysis: Rising U.S. Treasury Yields Weaken Market Appetite for Bitcoin Allocation

analysts suggest the rising yields on U.S. Treasury bonds and other major global economies' sovereign bonds are weakening the market's willingness to allocate to high-risk, non-yielding assets like Bitcoin.
