Recently, this market movement is interesting. Just look at the ETF performance — continuous net outflows for several days, but Bitcoin's price remains stuck in the 80,000 to 90,000 range, repeatedly oscillating without breaking downward. What does this indicate? It's simple: when ETFs are selling off, there are definitely buyers stepping in. Both sides have reached some sort of balance at this price level, making it difficult for the coin price to break downward. Institutions are reducing holdings, while retail investors or other funds are continuously taking over, which is why the seemingly bearish ETF outflows actually serve as a support level for Bitcoin's price.

Hmm, still the same old logic. When funds flow out, someone has to absorb the loss. Nothing new. Institutions run away, retail investors foot the bill. How long can this market hold up? The 80,000-90,000 level feels like it's just waiting for someone to give in first. ETF outflows actually support the market? Not sure whether to believe it or just laugh. In the standoff, let's see who blinks first.

Huh? ETF outflows instead become support? I need to think about this logic. --- Retail investors are about to be cut again, I see this wave as uncertain. --- Getting stuck at 80,000-90,000 is just a death cross, brother. --- Institutions are running, we're rushing in, a typical case of taking the last baton. --- How long can this support level hold? Ultimately, it's a gamble. --- Someone takes the plunge and refuses to break? I don't believe you. --- Watching outflows but still daring to buy the dip, you guys are really brave. --- Both sides are balanced? I think they're just watching to see who blinks first.

Institutions dump, and we pick up the pieces—this deal is a no-loss ETF outflows = free dumping? No, this is testing the bottom Simply put, someone is bottom-fishing, institutions can't run away 80,000-90,000 is the dead line; whoever dares to break below it is the fool

Damn, this is what they call the art of institutions running away and retail investors taking the fall ETF is being dumped wildly but the coin price holds up, what does that mean? It’s nothing more than someone really believing in this price level Institutions reduce holdings while retail investors step in, cycle repeats... feels like I’m doing charity The price fluctuates between 80,000 and 90,000 again and again, isn’t that exhausting? Outflows turn into support? Sounds right, but why do I feel uneasy? Timing is key for taking over the position. Should I buy now or wait and see? Both sides are stalemated, whoever can’t hold on first loses Feels like watching a silent game of chess, not sure who will be the last to laugh

Institutions run away, retail investors take the fall, this is what a bottom feels like.

actually let me break this down for you—if you examine the data on these etf flows, historically speaking we're seeing classic bid-wall dynamics. fundamentally the governance of capital here matters way more than surface-level flow metrics, ngl

Institutions are dumping, retail investors are buying the dip—that's the real truth of the market.

Institutions are running, retail investors are catching up, this is a game of strategy. 80,000-90,000 is the battlefield.
