📊 Wintermute's Latest Report: Institutional Buying Slows, Crypto Market Diverges from US Stocks
US stocks are partying while crypto is bleeding. The latest report from market maker Wintermute shows a clear divergence between the crypto market and the equity market. Here are the core highlights:
🚨 Core Status: US stocks hitting new highs, crypto feeling the pain
Market Performance: As of May 25, BTC is around $76,600 (down 1.5% weekly), ETH is about $2,140 (down 1.7% weekly). Meanwhile, the S&P 500 index has reached an all-time high during the same period.
Major Withdrawal: BTC spot ETFs saw outflows of approximately $1.26 billion in just one week, with total outflows exceeding $2 billion over two weeks. The institutional buying that pushed BTC from $70k to $80k is now signaling a significant retreat.
Ethereum Weakness: The ETH/BTC ratio has hit a 10-month low, down 35% from the August peak.
🌐 Macro and AI: Have Expectations Been Overextended?
Macro Data Disappoints: The Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index has dropped to a historical low of 44.8, while one-year inflation expectations have unexpectedly risen to 4.8%, increasing stagflation concerns.
AI Trading Fizzles: Nvidia's Q1 revenue rose 85% year-on-year, with Q2 guidance reaching $91 billion, data that is explosive, yet post-market stock prices showed little movement, indicating that the market has fully priced in the AI narrative.
📈 Market Outlook: Where to Look for Short-Term Lifelines?
Wintermute points out that the direction of the short-term market entirely depends on whether institutional funds return. Technically, keep an eye on the following two ranges:
Bullish Defense Zone ($75,000–$76,000): This is the current key support level. If it stabilizes here, the market may gather momentum to retest the $80,000 mark.
Bear Trap ($70,000–$72,000): If the above support fails, a downward channel will quickly open up, and prices may rapidly retest this range.

One Transfer… and the Market Flinched, Sometimes it only takes a single move.
#Wintermute just pushed out 17.16 million $B to Gate.io, about $6.67M in size. not absurd either… until you see what happened next.
Within three hours, price slipped hard. From $0.3914 down to $0.3257, a sharp 16.8% drop. Quick, almost reactive. Like the market saw the flow and didn’t wait to ask questions.
Now it’s hovering around $0.336, trying to stabilize… but the damage, at least short-term, is done.
And here’s the part that stands out. After that transfer, Wintermute’s on-chain balance of #B is basically gone, down to just $33K. That’s not trimming exposure… that’s clearing it out. Whether it’s inventory rotation, client flow, or something more directional, hard to say, but the timing with the price move? Yeah, people are connecting those dots.
Big transfer. Thin liquidity. Fast reaction. Doesn’t always mean intent… but it definitely leaves a mark.

Wintermute's observations are spot on. Right now, the macro market is showcasing a sort of 'split personality': US stocks hitting all-time highs, oil skyrocketing 15% boosting inflation expectations, yet the average Joe's confidence has plummeted into the ICU. In this extremely fragmented environment, Bitcoin is somehow being propped up above $76k thanks to ETF accumulation and short squeezes.
Honestly, this feels all too familiar; it's a completely irrational liquidity game. The fundamentals are crying out in pain, but the charts are partying, and shorts are likely getting chewed to bits in this 'anomalous' trend. BTC now resembles a monster that has layers of hedge and inflation expectations, moving in ways that defy logic. This serious divergence between the fundamentals and coin price is usually the prelude to a shift; in this kind of market, those recklessly opening leverage positions are pretty much becoming fodder.
Do you think this wave is the ETF holding firm, or will high inflation eventually drag risk assets into a pit? #Macro #Wintermute $BTC $ETH

📉 Wintermute: Macro pressures abound, why is Bitcoin stagnating?
After Bitcoin recently fell to around $62,800, market sentiment remains low. Crypto market maker Wintermute provides an in-depth analysis of the current market stalemate.
Key points summary:
The Federal Reserve in a dilemma: Due to persistent inflation, the Federal Reserve cannot lower interest rates; at the same time, constrained by economic slowdown, it cannot raise rates further. This weakens the stimulative effect of monetary policy on the market. Increased risk-averse sentiment: Investors are starting to doubt the profitability of the AI industry, with funds flowing from high-growth stocks to physical assets like gold, industrials, and defense. Cryptocurrency is currently viewed as a high-risk asset, facing significant pressure. De-globalization trend: Trade tariffs and fragmented supply chains have led to rising raw material costs. Under the shadow of de-globalization and stagflation, market liquidity remains scarce. Weak institutional demand: Continuous outflow of funds from spot ETFs, a decline in the open interest of the derivatives market, and investors flocking to purchase put options to hedge risks.
⚠️ Key support level:
Wintermute points out that after Ethereum (ETH) broke below the psychological level of $1,900, the real support range may be around $1,600.
Outlook:
The key in 2026 lies in the sustainability of macroeconomic transformation. If the de-globalization trend solidifies, Bitcoin will face long-term pressure; once risk appetite rebounds, the market is expected to welcome a comeback.

What do you think about Ethereum? Did I FOMO in for nothing? I reckon it might be a decent short opportunity, but I'm not recommending anything for others. I'm interested in your opinion and what you think about Ethereum's future. Will it finally hit 10k someday?$ETH #Wintermute #eth10k
