On March 12, Bitcoin spot ETFs experienced a net inflow of $13.33 million, marking a significant rebound after seven consecutive days of outflows.

The uptick in inflows helped boost the cumulative total net inflow to $35.42 billion, according to data from SoSoValue.

The daily total net inflow came at a time when Bitcoin ETFs had been facing negative momentum.

For example, the previous day, March 11, saw a net outflow of $371 million, following a similar trend in earlier days.

Smaller funds like BITB, HODL, and BRRR had modest inflows, highlighting mixed sentiment in the market.

As of the same day, the total value traded reached $2.01 billion, and the net assets of the spot ETFs amounted to $92.45 billion, which is 5.61% of the total Bitcoin market cap.

Meanwhile, Ethereum spot ETFs saw a net outflow of $10.4 million on March 12, adding to the recent string of negative inflows.

ETHA (BlackRock Ethereum ETF) showed no inflows or outflows, maintaining a steady cumulative net inflow of $4.20 billion.

Bitcoin Panic Selling Accelerates as Price Drops

Bitcoin investors who bought at its all-time high of $109,000 in January are now panic-selling as prices decline, according to on-chain analytics firm Glassnode.

The firm warned that continued selling pressure could push Bitcoin’s price down to $70,000.

Glassnode claimed that recent sell-offs from top buyers have led to “intense loss realization and a moderate capitulation event.”

This trend is evident in the short-term holder realized price—an average purchase price for those who have held Bitcoin for less than 155 days.

The firm also pointed out that short-term holders are “deeply underwater” between the $71,300 and $91,900 price levels, making $70,000 a possible bottom if the selling pressure continues.

“The probability of forming a temporary floor in this zone is meaningful, at least in the near term,” Glassnode added.
