Citigroup analysts attribute Bitcoin's recent price decline mainly to nearly $3.8 billion in outflows from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs between May 15 and June 2, rather than the sale of 32 BTC by Strategy. The ETF outflows are a stronger indicator of investor sentiment and have a significant impact on price movements. Strategy's Bitcoin sale was linked to managing debt obligations and does not change the long-term outlook for Bitcoin. Citigroup also notes that the potential passage of the CLARITY Act could boost digital asset interest, but sentiment will likely remain subdued without regulatory or macroeconomic catalysts.
