BlackRock’s IBIT sells $355M in Bitcoin
Large investor withdrawals signal increased volatility as Bitcoin prices face renewed downward pressure.
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) recorded more than $355 million in net outflows on November 20, according to Farside Investors. Withdrawals for the week have reached approximately $964 million so far, including a record $523 million on Tuesday.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US posted net outflows of around $903 million on Thursday, reversing the prior day’s inflow. IBIT, Grayscale’s GBTC, and Fidelity’s FBTC accounted for the bulk of the withdrawals.
Bitcoin climbed above $92,000 intraday but quickly reversed after US markets opened, sliding below $88,000 and extending its decline to $85,400, per CoinGecko.
