The analyst highlighted that BTC was up for several days before the ETF approval, with experts anticipating the crypto would hit $50,000. Thus, in a surprising turn of events, the asset’s price witnessed a drop of about 16%. In spite of the Bitcoin spot ETF approval, the market’s perception swiftly took an unpleasant shift. The correction took retail investors by surprise as they were unprepared since they had assumed that the price would rise. With the crypto asset experiencing such a collapse in price, it is believed that the market will see a massive liquidation. Remarkably, during this decline, liquidations were not as large as anticipated. Bitcoinhyper noted that during the decline, around $18.8 million in short positions were liquidated, which is less than expected. The news caused traders to become overconfident while ignoring the possibility of a correction. No Positive Impact On BTC Price Despite Substantial Inflow Reportedly, Bitcoin saw a whopping $1.18 billion inflow in digital assets funds worldwide following ETF approval. Despite the significant inflow of capital, the anticipated impact of boosting the price of BTC has not yet been realized.
