Wall Street's crypto darling takes a $474M hit—but the 'Rich Dad' crew smells discount BTC.

BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF hemorrhages cash as institutions panic-sell

Robert Kiyosaki doubles down on his 'buy when there's fear' mantra—just as the suits start paper-handing their exposure. Classic retail vs. Wall Street showdown brewing?

Meanwhile, crypto Twitter roasts the 'smart money' for buying high and selling low—again. Maybe stick to overpriced SPACs next time, guys.

BITCOiN CRASHING:

The everything bubbles are bursting….

Q: Am I selling?

A: NO: I am waiting.

Q: Why aren’t you selling?

A: The cause of all markets crashing is the world is in need of cash.

A: I do not need cash.

A: The real reason I am not selling is because the…

SoSoValue data confirmed the scale of withdrawals across the bitcoin ETF market. BlackRock’s IBIT fund recorded $463.10 million in net outflows. Fidelity’s FBTC posted over $2 million in withdrawals.

Grayscale’s GBTC shed $25.09 million, continuing its pattern of consistent outflows. Only one smaller Grayscale product added $4.17 million, providing minimal support against the heavy selling. Other major issuers including Ark 21Shares, Bitwise, VanEck, Invesco, Valkyrie, Franklin, and WisdomTree recorded zero inflows.

TWO MORE THINGS:

1: I willl buy more Bitcoin when crash is over.

There are only 21 million Bitcoins.

2: If you have a Cashflow Game FORM a Cashflow Club and bring Birds of Feather together…. Teach and learn together.

The record withdrawal comes weeks after JPMorgan disclosed holding shares of IBIT worth over $340 million. Market observers note that institutions appear to be selling due to urgent cash needs rather than doubts about Bitcoin’s long-term value.

Market Performance Shows Sharp Divide

Data from analyst Daan crypto Trades revealed that most crypto assets fell between 10% and 30% over the past month. Only a few dozen coins managed returns above 30%. The data shows extreme separation between winners and losers in the current market cycle.

The past month of returns within the crypto market is showing a very varied result yet again.

The majority of coins is down -10% to -30%.

This while there's a few dozen coins up +30% as well.

Daan explained that performance has been uneven throughout the year. He said investors cannot hold every token and expect strong results. The analyst recommended traders stay nimble or focus only on Bitcoin and major assets.

His analysis supports the view that liquidity concentrates around major coins during periods of market stress. The Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index dropped to 16, entering “Extreme Fear” territory. This level is historically viewed by some traders as a potential buying zone.

Kiyosaki Maintains Buying Plans

Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, told his 2.8 million followers on X that he is not selling Bitcoin or gold. He said the real reason for market declines is a global cash shortage. “The cause of all markets crashing is the world is in need of cash,” he stated.

Kiyosaki referenced analyst Lawrence Lepard’s “Big Print” thesis. The theory suggests governments will resort to massive money creation to cover mounting debt loads. He believes this will make Bitcoin, gold, silver, and ethereum more valuable.

In a follow-up post, Kiyosaki confirmed his buying plans. “I will buy more Bitcoin when crash is over,” he said, pointing to Bitcoin’s 21 million supply cap. He advised followers who need cash to consider selling some assets.

Kiyosaki said most panic stems from liquidity needs rather than lost conviction. He encouraged users to form study groups to learn together and avoid mistakes. The author noted he does not give investment advice and only shares his personal actions.

Analytics firm Santiment warned traders to be cautious as social media fills with claims that Bitcoin has already bottomed. The firm said widespread confidence in a market floor often comes before further declines. Bitcoin briefly dipped below $95,000 on Friday, sparking posts suggesting the worst is over.
