investment vehicles recorded $1.32 billion in outflows last week. During this time, US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs were the primary source of selling, with $1.48 billion in outflows.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading below the average cost basis of US spot Bitcoin ETFs. Data shows that US Bitcoin ETF products hold around 1.28 million BTC with a total AUM of about $113 billion.
This implies an average buying price of $87,830 per Bitcoin. BTC prices have moved well below that level following a recent sharp selloff.
Altcoins Weaken as Macro Pressure Builds
The broader digital asset market also declined as the total crypto market cap shrank by $400 billion over the past week.

One area that recorded inflows against the broader trend was short Bitcoin products with $14.5 million in inflows. Their AUM is up 8.1% year to date amid rising demand for downside exposure.
Meanwhile, the Crypto Fear and Greed Index dropped into extreme fear as the new week started.
Raoul Pal, founder and CEO of Global Macro Investor, recently argued that the ongoing selloff is due to a shortage of US liquidity rather than a structural market issue.

Pal pointed to temporary liquidity drains related to two government shutdowns and ongoing problems in US funding markets.
Some market participants now expect fewer and slower interest rate cuts under new Fed chair Kevin Warsh, given his firm stance on inflation and quantitative easing.
