Last week, the U.S. Bitcoin spot ETF reported a net outflow of $1.72 billion, experiencing the largest single-week net outflow since February 2025. The largest Bitcoin ETF by net assets, BlackRock's IBIT, recorded an outflow of $1.34 billion last week, marking the largest single-week net outflow since its launch in January 2024. Overall, the ETF continued the negative outflow trend that began in May, ultimately recording a monthly net outflow of $2.43 billion in May.Andri Fauzan Adziima, head of research at Bitrue Research Institute, stated that the main driver of last week's ETF outflows was macroeconomic headlines, particularly recent U.S. employment data. The strong May 2026 (non-farm payroll) report confirmed the resilience of the labor market, lowering the probability of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates in the short term and pushing up U.S. Treasury yields, making income-generating bonds much more attractive than non-yielding Bitcoin.Additionally, geopolitical uncertainties have triggered widespread risk-averse sentiment in recent trading days, affecting not only the digital asset market but also other sectors including artificial intelligence, tech stocks, and gold. It is expected that the outflow pressure will continue in early June, but will stabilize or turn slightly positive by mid to late June, as panic sentiment bottoms out, seasonal factors in June provide some support, and any macro-level easing will trigger inflows.

According to Bloomberg, the U.S. government is betting that stablecoins issued by private entities like Tether, pegged to the U.S. dollar, will expand to a scale of about $3 trillion in the coming years to support the international dominance of the dollar and absorb more demand for U.S. Treasury bonds.However, the article points out that the current mainstream stablecoin issuers are concentrated in Tether, which has questionable compliance and anti-money laundering practices in its registered location. In the event of a run or smart contract failure, this could impact the large amounts of U.S. Treasury assets it holds and disrupt global payments and settlements. The European Central Bank is advancing the use of central bank digital currencies and "tokenized euros" to support atomic settlements, in order to avoid being locked into critical financial infrastructure by U.S. private dollar tokens.

The latest report from the blockchain analysis platform Swissblock shows that Bitcoin is gradually slipping into a high-risk environment, primarily due to continuous selling by institutional funds, especially driven by net outflows from the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF. Historical data indicates that whenever this index signals selling pressure overwhelming the market at a structural level, it often corresponds to systematic distribution behavior by institutional funds.On-chain data analysis firm Glassnode also pointed out that since May 7, the U.S. Bitcoin spot ETF has shown net outflows almost every trading day, with institutional selling signals persisting for over two weeks. "Such continuous capital outflows are exerting pressure on the supply side of the market, while currently, there has not been sufficient buying demand to hedge against this," further exacerbating the risk of supply-demand imbalance.In the market, Bitcoin faced short-term pressure on Tuesday due to geopolitical disturbances. Reports indicated that the U.S. is implementing a new round of military strikes against Iran, despite recent progress on a peace agreement between the two sides. Bitcoin's price fell by about 1%, briefly dipping from above $77,000 to around $76,500, but overall it still maintained a range-bound pattern for nearly four months.CoinEx Chief Analyst Jeff Ko stated that although geopolitical events may trigger short-term volatility, the market focus may still lean towards potential reconciliation progress between the U.S. and Iran, with the overall cryptocurrency market "still in a wait-and-see state." In summary, the current Bitcoin market faces dual pressures: on one hand, the continuous outflow of spot ETF funds has weakened key buying support; on the other hand, geopolitical uncertainty has amplified short-term volatility risks. If institutional risk appetite does not improve marginally, the risk index may rise further, necessitating caution against the adjustment pressure brought by technical selling and emotional resonance.
