President Trump’s Truth Social Is Not Done With Crypto ETFs – Files 3 New ETFs

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Jefferies’ Andrew Moss said the recent selloff was a correction, not a crypto winter, arguing that industry development and institutional activity remained intact.</li><li>Bitcoin had fallen about 47% from its early October high and moved closely with tech stocks, as its correlation with the Nasdaq remained elevated.</li></ul>Bitcoin’s (BTC) drop below $67,000 has rattled investors, but Wall Street analysts are not calling time on crypto yet. According to Andrew Moss, Jefferies’ senior vice president and head of digital assets research, this sharp decline appears to be a market correction, not the start of a new crypto winter.&nbsp;Speaking on Yahoo Finance on Tuesday, Andrew Moss&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tC_zAiK7mic">stated</a> that the pullback in the crypto market is a correction, not a structural downturn. “I’d argue that we’re not in a crypto winter,” he added. According to him, a true winter period would be when prices fall and “development slows, TradFi initiatives decelerate, and questions emerge about the longevity of this industry.”Moss added that Bitcoin is down about 47% from its all-time high since early October 2025, while Ethereum (ETH) has fallen roughly 55%, acknowledging that there are sharp price drops, but he argued that price drops alone do not equal a crypto winter.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Crypto Volatile, Retail Sentiment Wavers</h2><a href="https://stocktwits.com/coins/bitcoin">Bitcoin (BTC)</a> traded at $66,666.29, down by 3.32% in the past 24 hours. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around Bitcoin remained in a ‘bearish’ zone, as chatter around the coin dropped from ‘extremely high’ to ‘high’ over the past day.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/coins/ethereum">Ethereum (ETH)</a> traded at around $1,936.8, down by 3.7% in the last 24 hours. On Stocktwits, the retail sentiment around Ethereum remained in the ‘bullish’ territory, with chatter at ‘high’ levels over the past day.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Bitcoin Tracks NASDAQ As ETF Outflows Rise</h2>Moss said crypto is moving with broader markets. Bitcoin and tokens more broadly, he said, “don’t trade like gold.” They’re far more correlated with risk assets, far more correlated with the NASDAQ.”&nbsp;Adding to that sentiment, Bloomberg reported in early January that Bitcoin’s correlation with the Nasdaq 100 climbed to a two-year high ahead of U.S. inflation data, underscoring how closely digital assets move with tech stocks.On-chain&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.coinglass.com/etf">data showed</a> smaller retail holders have begun buying again, but larger “whales” remain inactive. Spot Bitcoin ETFs have also recorded notable net outflows in recent sessions.<h2 class="st-heading-2">U.S. Regulation Could Be The Next Catalyst&nbsp;</h2>Looking ahead, Moss pointed to a proposed U.S. crypto market structure bill as a potential catalyst. “A comprehensive regulatory framework is one of the largest drivers of TradFi adoption,” he argued that it would make rules clearer and could accelerate institutional blockchain adoption even as short-term volatility continues.

Bitcoin, Ethereum Extend Losses: Jefferies’ Andrew Moss Says It’s A Correction, Not A ‘Crypto Winter’

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Most of the selling is coming from longtime crypto holders, while newer ETF investors have stayed relatively steady.</li><li>Outflows at large issuers such as BlackRock reflect market stress and positioning changes, not panic selling by ETF investors.</li></ul>Crypto’s recent volatility has not led to widespread selling by ETF investors, according to executives at Bitwise and GraniteShares, even as spot crypto fund assets drop to their lowest level in nearly a year.On Tuesday, Bitwise chief investment officer Matt Hougan&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8vV8r4_8Us">said</a> that ETF investors are largely holding through the downturn. “It’s not the ETF investors who are driving the sell-off,” Hougan said as he explained that most of the decline in assets under management is due to falling crypto prices rather than heavy redemptions.<h2 class="st-heading-2">ETF Investors Hold Through The Downturn</h2>“Bitcoin is down more than 50% from its October 2025 peak,” he added, stating that the total outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs have been relatively limited at around $7 billion. He pointed out that much of the selling pressure is coming from long-time crypto holders who accumulated Bitcoin years ago and are now trimming positions, rather than from newer ETF investors.Hougan noted that about 40% of spot Bitcoin ETF holders are currently underwater, but added that “the vast majority of ETF investors showed they’re here for the long haul.”<h3 class="st-heading-3">Retail Sentiment Turns Bearish As Volatility Spikes</h3><a href="https://stocktwits.com/coins/bitcoin">Bitcoin (BTC)</a> traded at around $69,244.41, down by 0.8% in the last 24 hours. On Stocktwits, the retail sentiment around Bitcoin remained in the ‘bearish’ territory, with chatter at ‘extremely high’ levels over the past day.Adding to that sentiment, Will Rhind, the chief executive of GraniteShares, said ETF investors typically hold smaller crypto allocations and are more comfortable riding out volatility. “The selling has been pretty light compared to the total assets out there,” Rhind stated.<h2 class="st-heading-2">BlackRock ETFs Alone Show $3.6 Billion Outflow</h2>Against that backdrop, market pressure has increased in recent weeks, with Bitcoin testing the $60,000 level and Ethereum (ETH) trading near $2,000, as per records. This broader market stress has also shown up in flows at large issuers like BlackRock.&nbsp;Between Feb 6 and Feb 9, BlackRock-linked crypto products like iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF and iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF&nbsp; <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://intel.arkm.com/explorer/entity/blackrock">recorded</a> about $3.6 billion in net outflows.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/IBIT">iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT)</a> was trading at $39.19, down 2.29% in pre-market hours on Tuesday.

But&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/cryptocurrency/blackrock-bitcoin-etf-sees-record-trading-ibit-trading-draws-scrutiny/cZbFf9SR4nx">the evidence suggests</a> that IBIT was more of a catalyst than the main cause of the downturn, which was mostly caused by a broader liquidity sweep and forced deleveraging in the crypto markets.&nbsp;Hedging flows from banks and structured products linked to IBIT, probably made the downside momentum stronger once prices started to fall. However, the move itself was more of a general risk-off reset than a structural exit from Bitcoin by institutional investors.Read also: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/cryptocurrency/white-house-crypto-talks-stablecoin-yields-clarity-act/cZbUbatR4YB">White House Convenes Second Closed-Door Crypto Talks As Stablecoin Yield Fight Stalls CLARITY Act</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com

At Thursday’s sub-$2,000 ETH prices, that stash was worth about $8.4 billion, leaving BitMine with billions in unrealized losses.&nbsp;Despite the sharp decline, BitMine will not be liquidating its assets.

The proposal would have required payment networks to compete more directly on credit card swipe fees, an approach similar to the Credit Card Competition Act that Marshall has long supported alongside Sen.
