During the Christmas holiday week (December 22-26), Bitcoin did not experience the legendary "Christmas rebound." Instead, Wall Street institutions heavily sold off. According to on-chain data and ETF monitoring, US Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a net outflow of $782 million in the few trading days before and after the holiday, equivalent to over 50 billion RMB, which is quite eye-catching.

Based on tracking by SoSoValue, from December 22 to 24 and then to 26, a total of 11 US Bitcoin spot ETFs experienced net outflows. The largest single-day outflow was on Friday, when Bitcoin's price plummeted, and ETF net outflows on that day reached $276 million.

Specifically, BlackRock's IBIT was hit the hardest, with redemptions of $193 million; Fidelity's FBTC was also redeemed for $74 million; Grayscale's GBTC saw smaller but continuous outflows. Behind this move, institutions may be adjusting their year-end positions during the holiday or holding back confidence in the subsequent market trend. While retail investors are still hoping for a rebound, large funds are quietly retreating.

Are big institutions already starting to withdraw during the holiday? Retail investors are still dreaming; they've already left.

Retail investors are still dreaming of a rebound, while institutions have already run away. How many times has this trick been played and fallen for?

Here we go again, institutions say withdraw and they do, retail investors are still dreaming Retail investors are always the last to know, and this time is no exception Over 5 billion flowed out? BlackRock's move is really clever, they just liquidated at the end of the year This is the reality, when big players are preparing to run, retail investors are still shouting rebound Institutions harvest at the end of the year, this trick has been played out I already said not to touch this week's market, and as expected

Retail investors are still dreaming, the institutions have already run away haha BlackRock IBIT directly invested 193 million, this move... is really a bit ruthless Christmas rebound? Wake up, this is just a reverse operation Over 5 billion RMB outflow, it seems this week is really an institutional harvest Wait, why are the big V's silent? End of the year, institutions are indeed playing their tricks skillfully I just want to ask, who is still holding? Retail investors are always no match for the Wall Street crowd This is not a rebound, it's institutions bottom fishing IBIT redemptions are the highest, what does that mean? It means someone is panicking Selling off during the holiday, this move is very covert 50 billion gone, are you still happy?

Institutions' move this time is really clever; they dumped the market smoothly during the holiday. Retail investors are still dreaming of a rebound, but big funds have already run away.
