Bitcoin stalls amid $18.5B Fed repo and $4B ETF outflows

Bitcoin’s price struggles continue amidst concerns in the U.S. financial system, including a $18.5 billion Federal Reserve repo operation and Blue Owl Capital halting redemptions from a private credit fund.
The Fed’s repo operation is characterized as a one-day event, not a sustained infusion, while reverse repo usage remained low.
Blue Owl’s decision is linked to liquidity terms rather than immediate losses, with loan sales near par value.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs are experiencing outflows, reversing the “Wall Street adoption” narrative.
Bitcoin’s positive correlation with the Nasdaq 100 causes it to initially react to risk-off sentiment by falling.
Persistent funding stress, potentially leading to Fed policy changes, could initially cause a dip before a Bitcoin rally.
