Bitcoin Drops with ETF Outflows – Bitcoin slid 1.23% to $113,576 as ETF withdrawals hit $523 million, driving stronger market volatility.
Ethereum Holds Near $4,200 Support—Ethereum dipped 0.98% to $4,198 after $422 million in ETF outflows but maintained key dominance at 12.32%.
Altcoins Show Mixed Performance—Solana, Cardano, and BNB followed broader declines, yet smaller-cap coins displayed resilience, signaling selectivity.
Bitcoin dropped to $113,576 as the large withdrawals on ETFs placed a heavy burden on its short-term trend. This contraction of 1.23 percent was tied to widespread selling pressure affecting most major assets across the market. Nevertheless, Bitcoin still holds a solid dominance level of 53.61%, demonstrating its authority in shaping overall direction.
Market liquidations reached $446 million, reflecting aggressive positions unwound as traders exited during the retracement. These liquidations stemmed from leveraged bets that were forced out, further increasing volatility across exchanges. The impact of ETF withdrawals added further pressure, pushing sentiment toward short-term uncertainty.
Although Bitcoin corrected, the market structure remains supported by strong capitalization above $4 trillion. This resilience indicates Bitcoin continues to anchor broader market performance despite temporary weakness. The asset’s next path will hinge on whether stability holds above current levels or further declines develop.

Despite the retreat, Ethereum held relative strength within its accumulation range. Traders remained active near $4,200, a level that continues to serve as strong support. The asset’s performance remains closely tied to institutional movements and sentiment across the sector.
Smaller-cap altcoins reflected mixed outcomes, with some showing modest gains despite broader weakness. Solana, Cardano, and BNB tracked Ethereum with minor dips. However, selective resilience among niche tokens suggested ongoing market rotation.
