TradFi-DeFi links deepen as Uniswap lists BlackRock’s BUIDL and LayerZero unveils Zero.
As seen in Bloomberg: Market sentiment remains steady yet cautious today, with Bitcoin consolidating after a period of sharp volatility.
Crypto markets saw extreme volatility as ETF flows, derivatives and funding dynamics drove price action, with Bitcoin’s sharp drawdown, selective ETF inflows and ongoing deleveraging defining the week.
A volatile week saw Bitcoin slide, ETF outflows build, and network activity diverge from price. Institutions tightened risk, while builders kept shipping across Ethereum, XRP, and Solana.
Bitcoin broke below US$80K, hitting a low of US$75,719 and sparking US$2.5B in liquidations. ETH led the unwind, ETFs saw outflows, and macro jitters returned as DeFi security flashed red.
Bitcoin holds its range as ETF outflows climb, mining stress deepens, and stablecoin volatility rises. Markets stay cautious while institutional buyers quietly accumulate into weakness.
