Global Market Downturn

The global markets experienced a significant downturn, with the Nasdaq falling over 2% and Japanese and South Korean stocks declining. The South Korean KOSPI index also fell by approximately 3.8%. This decline reflects investor uncertainty and concerns regarding economic outlooks.

Bitcoin ETF Flows

Bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows of $903 million, the second-highest daily outflow in history. This indicates that investors are withdrawing capital from these funds, which may negatively impact Bitcoin's price in the short term.

MicroStrategy Analysis

The CEO of CryptoQuant raised questions about the potential bankruptcy of MicroStrategy, but affirmed that the company would not go bankrupt even if Bitcoin's price dropped to $10,000. He noted the company has several ways to manage its debt, such as refinancing and issuing new shares.

Bitcoin Price Predictions

Predictions suggest that Bitcoin's price could fall to between $73,000 and $84,000, a range representing 'maximum pain' for investors. This prediction is based on the cost basis of Bitcoin held by BlackRock and Strategy, major Bitcoin investors.

Other News

  • Irys announced the tokenomics of its IRYS token, with an initial circulating supply of 20%, and 8% allocated for airdrops and future incentives.
  • Polymarket plans to raise new funding at a $12 billion valuation.
  • Tether announced an investment in Parfin to accelerate USDT adoption in Latin America.

The cryptocurrency market remains volatile, influenced by various factors such as macroeconomic conditions, ETF flows, and decisions by major companies like MicroStrategy. Investors should exercise caution and conduct their own research before making any investment decisions.
