The latest decline was amplified by negative Bitcoin ETF flows, Strategy&#8217;s BTC sales, and leveraged liquidations.

However, the broader structure remains intact, with investors now looking toward upcoming inflation data for the next major catalyst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What to Watch<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>U.S. CPI &amp; PPI:<\/strong> These are the key macro events for Bitcoin. Softer inflation could improve expectations for future Fed easing and support risk assets, while hotter-than-expected data could strengthen the higher-for-longer narrative and keep Bitcoin under pressure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Institutional Demand:<\/strong> Watch Bitcoin ETF flows for signs of stabilization. Overall flows have remained positive over the past few days, but yesterday&#8217;s outflow highlights continued caution among large investors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Oil &amp; Geopolitical Developments:<\/strong> Any developments around the Strait of Hormuz and oil prices could influence inflation expectations and broader risk sentiment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bitcoin Price Action:<\/strong> Bitcoin is trading near the <strong>$64,000 region<\/strong>, with <strong>$65,000\u2013$65,500<\/strong> acting as key resistance and the <strong>mid-$63,000s<\/strong> as an important support zone in short term.
