Alex O’Donnell7 hours agoBitcoin oversold after German gov’t sell-off — ARK InvestBitcoin miners seem to be capitulating, a harbinger of a bullish reversal, according to ARK.5138 Total views4 Total sharesListen to article 0:00NewsOwn this piece of crypto historyCollect this article as NFTJoin us on social networksAccording to a report by asset manager ARK Invest released on July 18, Bitcoin became oversold in June after Germany’s government initiated a multibillion-dollar sell-off of 50,000 BTC seized in a 2020 police sting against Movie2k, a streaming platform for pirated content.


The sell-off sent Bitcoin (BTC) prices tumbling from highs exceeding $70,000 in early June to a low of less than $55,000 during a brief dip in July.


“Based on short-term-holder realized profits/losses and miner outflows, Bitcoin appears oversold,” according to the report, which focuses on the period through June 30 but includes more recent data. “Current levels [of miner outflows] suggest that miners are capitulating, a harbinger of a bullish reversal.”


Investors’ sustained appetite for BTC exchange-traded funds (ETFs) has been another bullish signal, according to ARK. The report noted that BTC’s sharp sell-off did not trigger a mass exodus from spot BTC ETFs. As of June 30, the drop in BTC’s spot price overshot the 30-day percent change in BTC ETF flows by 17.3%.


July has seen billions of dollars of net inflows into BTC ETFs, with approximately $1.35 billion pouring into the funds in the week ending July 15, according to CoinShares. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) saw $107 million in inflows on July 18 after nine straight days of inflows, according to Thomas Fahrer, co-founder of crypto data platform Apollo.Fund flow data indicates that BTC may be oversold.

One risk to BTC’s continued strong performance is global economic data. Corporate profits are steadily falling as pricing power diminishes, a sign of economic weakness, according to ARK.


Bitcoin prices also face potential headwinds from defunct cryptocurrency exchange Mt. Gox’s repayment of some $9 billion in BTC to creditors. However, unlike Germany’s abrupt sell-off, creditors may opt to hold on to BTC, softening any potential impact on the broader market, industry analysts said.
