US spot Bitcoin ETFs, which had seen two consecutive days of inflows, experienced a reversal with $90 million in outflows. This change in investor behavior coincided with Bitcoin's price falling below the $86,000 mark.

The current price of Bitcoin is $86,034, representing a 0.12% decrease over the past 24 hours and a 2.42% increase over the last seven days. Despite the recent decline, Bitcoin's market capitalization remains substantial at $1.73 trillion.

The broader cryptocurrency market cap is at $3 trillion, with the overall market showing a relatively flat trend. The Fear & Greed Index stands at 73, indicating a sentiment of 'Greed' among investors.

This development comes as Bitcoin trades approximately 32% below its all-time high of $126,000, reached in October 2025. The outflows from Bitcoin ETFs suggest a potential shift in short-term market sentiment.

The outflows from Bitcoin ETFs could indicate increased caution among investors following the recent price decline. However, the long-term outlook for Bitcoin remains positive given its significant market capitalization and historical resilience.
