Eight straight days. That is how long US spot Bitcoin ETFs have been bleeding 
money, with more than $2 billion in net outflows recorded since May 14 — and 
Tuesday&#8217;s session added another ugly chapter to that streak. Related Reading:

Other A single trader sold over 29 million shares of BlackRock&#8217;s iShares 
Bitcoin Trust ETF on Tuesday through a dark pool, a private trading platform 
used by institutions to quietly execute large orders away from public markets. 
The transaction, valued at $1.3 billion, was executed at $43.16 per share at 
2:30 pm UTC. Alex Thorn, head of firmwide research at Galaxy Digital, said it 
was the biggest dark pool trade in the fund he had ever seen. Bloomberg ETF 
analyst Eric Balchunas added more weight to that claim, pointing out that the 
sell order was more than 22 times larger than the second-biggest IBIT sell 
order recorded on the same day. The identity of the trader has not been 
disclosed. massive $1.289 billion IBIT block sale by unknown party through 
dark pool at 10:30am today, biggest such trade i&#8217;ve ever seen

Bitcoin Slid Within Minutes Price data from TradingView shows Bitcoin fell 
1.45% — from $77,870 to $76,721 — within 10 minutes of the trade being 
executed. The drop did not stop there. Bitcoin continued sliding and hit a 
24-hour low of $75,600 roughly 12 hours later, marking a 2.5% loss for the 
day. Tuesday&#8217;s total outflow from US spot Bitcoin ETFs came in at $333 
million, with IBIT alone accounting for over $192 million of that figure. That 
brings the cumulative outflow since May 14 past the $2 billion mark. 
Institutions Pulling Back The sell-off fits a broader pattern of institutional 
retreat. Jane Street cut its Bitcoin ETF holdings by around 70% in the first 
quarter, while Goldman Sachs trimmed its position by 10%. Bitcoin has 
historically traded outside the orbit of traditional financial markets, but 
the rise of US-based Bitcoin ETFs has pulled institutional investors in — and 
now some are heading for the exit. Related Reading: When Bitcoin Gets Ignored,

Whether Tuesday&#8217;s massive dark pool transaction signals a shift in strategy by 
a major holder, or simply a one-time portfolio move, remains unknown. Featured
