After asserting that this was \u201cwild but also normal,\u201d he explained what might be the cause and how ETFs are liquidation release valves.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Also no surprise record week for Put volume in <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24IBIT&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$IBIT<\/a>.. this is one thing that may help ppl stay the course, they can always buy some puts as hedge while they stay long.

IBIT has <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-suddenly-drops-below-90k-again-as-blackrocks-ibit-continues-to-bleed\/\">been<\/a> on a substantial negative streak for the past several weeks, and yesterday was no exception, with $122 million in net outflows. Interestingly, it has been in the green only once out of the past eight trading days.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the day turned out to be positive for the ETFs as a group, with $238.4 million entering the funds. The week, though, was deep in the red, with over $1.2 billion in net outflows, <a href=\"https:\/\/farside.co.uk\/bitcoin-etf-flow-all-data\/\">according<\/a> to FarSide data.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Price Update<\/h2>\n<p>These withdrawals from the ETFs are among the reasons why BTC\u2019s price has been falling hard lately. Recall that the asset entered the previous business week at $95,000, but it dumped hard by almost $15,000 in the span of just a few days to bottom below $81,000 on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Once the New York Fed President John Williams <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-rebounds-3k-in-a-flash-thanks-to-fresh-fed-rate-cut-optimism\/\">offered<\/a> some hope that the central bank might lower interest rates soon, BTC bounced to around $85,000. Still, the cryptocurrency has plunged by roughly 32% since its all-time high in early October, which <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/peter-schiff-taunts-bitcoin-over-40-loss-against-gold\/\">raises<\/a> questions about the state of the overall market and whether the bears are in full control now.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-etfs-smash-trading-volume-records-during-btcs-wild-friday-swings\/\">Bitcoin ETFs Smash Trading Volume Records During BTC\u2019s Wild Friday Swings<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States set a new record in terms of trading volume on Friday, which was categorized as \u201cwild but normal\u201d by experts.
