Wisconsin Sells Entire $350M Spot Bitcoin ETF Stake

Wisconsin’s state investment board just liquidated its entire spot Bitcoin ETF position—$350 million gone in a flash. Was it risk management or cold feet?

Subheader: The Great Institutional Retreat?

While pension funds elsewhere double down on crypto exposure, Wisconsin’s exit raises eyebrows. Timing’s curious—just months before the next Bitcoin halving cycle.

Subheader: ETF Outflows Hit Record Highs

The move follows $1.2 billion in spot Bitcoin ETF outflows last week. Traders whisper about ’institutional profit-taking’ (translation: suits locking in gains before summer vacations).

Closing thought: When even pension funds trade like degenerate apes, maybe the ’mature market’ narrative needs recalibration.
