Bitcoin Breaks $64,000 as Crypto ETF Flows Fluctuate

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024, allowing investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin through regulated funds. ETF flows are often viewed as a gauge of institutional demand, so the decline in fund assets as Bitcoin fell below $60,000 also signaled waning risk appetite.

On the latest trading day in June 2026, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows of $696.3 million, the month's largest single-day total. Bitcoin briefly fell to $58,900, while the Fear and Greed Index dropped to 12. The ETFs have lost $4.3 billion over 13 consecutive days of outflows, bringing year-to-date net outflows to $4.6 billion, while their assets have fallen 57% from their 2025 peak.

Bitcoin has not traded above $75,000 since February 2. After briefly touching $95,000 on February 5, it fell to about $62,000 and then entered a period of consolidation. Mati Greenspan, founder of Quantum Economics, said $75,000 is the key threshold for confirming whether the market can shift from consolidation into a fresh uptrend.

As of April 14, Bitcoin was closing in on $75,000. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $1.32 billion in net inflows in March, ending four consecutive months of net outflows. Han Tan, chief market analyst at Bybit Learn, said a decisive breakout could open the way toward the $85,000 range, while $65,000 would remain the main support level if the breakout fails.
