White House blocks Anthropic’s Mythos expansion over security concerns

Bitcoin was trading at $75,900 on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve&#8217;s latest 
rate decision sent a chill through crypto markets, capping three straight days 
of withdrawals from US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds that together erased 
more than $490 million. Related Reading: Trump’s Bitcoin Reserve Could Be Near 
As White House Signals Major Update Fidelity And BlackRock Lead The Exodus 
Fidelity&#8217;s FBTC took the heaviest hit, shedding $191 million over the period. 
BlackRock&#8217;s IBIT — the largest spot Bitcoin ETF by assets under management — 
wasn&#8217;t far behind, with close to $167 million flowing out. Ark Invest&#8217;s ARKB 
recorded another $73.3 million in withdrawals. The selling was spread across 
the week: Monday saw the worst single-day figure at $263 million, followed by 
$89.7 million on Tuesday, and $137.6 million on Wednesday — the day the Fed 
announced its decision. The outflows came right on the heels of a strong 
stretch. According to reports, Bitcoin ETFs had pulled in steady money for 
nine consecutive days before the streak snapped, with total inflows during 
that run reaching a little over $2 billion. Last week alone brought in almost 
$824 million. The reversal was sharp. Fed Holds Firm, Markets Respond The 
Federal Reserve kept its benchmark rate unchanged at 3.50%–3.75% for the third 
meeting in a row. Fed Chair Jerome Powell gave no hint of cuts ahead. No 
softer tone on inflation. No signal of easier financial conditions on the 
horizon. That message landed hard on risk assets, and Bitcoin felt it quickly. 
At the same time, rising tensions between the US and Iran added to the unease. 
Reports indicate that US President Donald Trump warned the Strait of Hormuz 
could be blocked if Iran does not stand down. Global markets were already on 
edge, and that kind of geopolitical pressure tends to push investors toward 
the exits. Meanwhile, fear has returned to the crypto market, with the Crypto 
Fear and Greed Index falling back into the “Fear” zone as investors grow 
cautious amid macro uncertainty and continued Bitcoin ETF outflows. What Comes 
Next For Bitcoin Bitcoin had bounced back from a low near $74,000 earlier in 
the month, briefly pushing toward $80,000 before this week&#8217;s pullback. With 
ETF outflows continuing, that $75,000 level is again in focus as a potential 
support test. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bull Run Brewing: ATH In Sight By Late 
2026: Analyst Data shows Bitcoin dropped about 3% following the Fed&#8217;s 
announcement. Some traders still expect a recovery toward the $85,000–$88,000 
range in May, though that outlook depends heavily on whether macro conditions 
hold steady. For now, the momentum that built over nine days of inflows has 
stalled. The question is whether it restarts — or fades further. Featured
