Bitcoin Enters High-Risk Zone as Institutional Funds Continue to Withdraw, Highlighting Selling Pressure Concerns
MAY 26 (Crypto Brief) – Blockchain analytics platform Swissblock reports Bitcoin is gradually moving into a high-risk environment, driven largely by persistent institutional fund outflows—most notably net outflows from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs. Historical data shows whenever this metric signals structural selling pressure dominating the market, it typically aligns with systematic distribution activity by institutional players.
Separately, on-chain analytics firm Glassnode noted that since May 7, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have posted net outflows nearly every trading session, with institutional selling signals persisting for over two weeks. “These sustained outflows continue to weigh on the market’s supply side, and there’s currently not enough observable buy-side demand to offset them,” Glassnode added, further widening the supply-demand imbalance risk.

Canadian regulators have approved Robinhood's acquisition of the digital asset product and service company WonderFi
May 26 — WonderFi announced Monday that Canadian regulators have approved Robinhood’s acquisition of the digital asset product and services company, per official sources. Robinhood stated the deal will help boost its capabilities to offer programmable financial products, adding that its accessible, low-cost, secure platform will carry on WonderFi’s mission to make cryptocurrency trading simpler for millions of Canadians.

As PYMNTS reported last year, this transaction follows Robinhood’s 2025 purchase of crypto exchange Bitstamp, with the two deals closely interconnecte

Bank of America: Maintains Gold 12-Month Target Price of $6,000 per Ounce, Short-Term Pressured but Long-Term Bullish Thesis Unchanged
May 26 — U.S. Bank Managing Director and Head of Metal Research Michael Widmer noted that short-term gold prices are under pressure as market expectations for U.S. interest rate cuts have declined. That said, the firm maintains a bullish stance on gold and reaffirms its forecast that the precious metal will reach $6,000 per ounce over the next 12 months.
The near-term headwinds for gold tie back to a market re-assessment of inflation risks and the U.S. interest rate path, driven by rising energy prices amid the ongoing Middle East conflict. Still, several factors are supporting gold: persistent buying from central banks globally, rising investor demand, and weakening economic growth signals. These are expected to keep gold on an upward trajectory.
