Although BlackRock did not clarify the purpose of the large Bitcoin and Ethereum deposits, the crypto community has tagged it as a major sell attempt from the firm considering the slow performances from its ETFs in recent days.
Also, market watchers noted that Coinbase is the firm's custodial platform, hence, it could be preparation for a major move ahead.
BlackRock leads Bitcoin ETF withdrawals
Since the inception of the Bitcoin ETF market, BlackRock has maintained dominance among all existing funds, whether in positive or negative market conditions.
The fund has also maintained its leadership during their last trading session, when all funds registered notable outflows, as the Bitcoin price volatility has fueled a negative shift in investor sentiment.
BlackRock registered the highest withdrawal of $41.92 million, surpassing all other Bitcoin funds, which recorded fewer outflows as momentum begins to fade.
