Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP extend decline, pressured by increasing ETF outflows

Cryptocurrencies are trading under pressure on Thursday, weighed down by risk-off sentiment driven by Middle East tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty. Bitcoin has extended its decline below $65,000 and is targeting the key support area at $60,000.

Bitcoin price action over the last few weeks has felt less like a normal, healthy correction and more like a slow grinding crash that continues to wreak havoc on holdings and trading accounts. And everything suggests that the dramatic crash isn’t over.

Hyperliquid and Near Protocol fall sharply as Arthur Hayes dumps HYPE and NEAR for Worldcoin

Hyperliquid (HYPE) and Near Protocol (NEAR) prices have dropped 11% and 17%, respectively, at press time on Thursday, erasing gains as the well-known investor Arthur Hayes dumps HYPE and NEAR holdings.

Pi Network hits record low as market-wide risk-off sentiment weighs

PI price hovers around $0.1300 at press time on Thursday, reflecting a mild rebound from the $0.1186 record low reached earlier on the day. Deposits totaling roughly 1 million PI tokens on exchanges over the last 24 hours suggest waning investor confidence amid a broader market risk-off sentiment.

Billions in ETF outflows don’t bode well

Bitcoin (BTC) remains under pressure, trading below $74,000 on Friday, and is set to post its third consecutive week of losses. The institutional sell-off continues, with spot BTC Exchange-Traded funds (ETFs) recording billions in outflows. In addition, sticky inflation and macroeconomic headwinds suppress the Crypto King’s upside potential. Institutional demand continues to weaken so far this week.
