Grayscale's recent sale of 32 BTC from its large stash and $128 million in shares has raised concerns about its accumulation strategy led by Michael Saylor. The sales have negatively impacted market sentiment, causing Bitcoin's price to drop 16% this week and the Stretch equity instrument to fall 12%. Analysts warn that if Grayscale raises dividends due to falling prices, it could trigger more sales, creating a challenging cycle for the firm. Institutional outflows continue, with $1.4 billion withdrawn last week amid geopolitical tensions, while whale deposits on centralized exchanges have surged, signaling potential further weakness in the market.
