May 26: U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) stated that U.S. and Israeli fighter jets struck multiple Iranian vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

At the same time, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of around 16,000 BTC in that same period. Combined, this adds up to potential selling pressure of roughly 34,000 BTC. Glassnode data also indicates that the daily trading volume of spot BTC ETFs has dropped below $20 billion, down from over $50 billion at the end of 2025—a sign that speculative demand from traditional finance channels is cooling. However, market sentiment has improved recently due to expectations of a U.S.-Iran peace agreement. BTC quickly rebounded to around $77,800 after falling below $75,000. Derivatives dat
