Bitcoin (BTC) extended its decline on Friday as traders reacted to the year\u2019s largest options expiry and continued caution in crypto ETF flows.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n Summary<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n\nBitcoin fell below $66,000 after $14 billion in options expired and ETF outflows persisted Friday.<\/li>\nWhale and retail wallets added Bitcoin in March even as price dropped and sentiment weakened.<\/li>\nAnalyst XO said a drop toward $55,000 to $60,000 could set up longs in April.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\nConsequently, the drop pushed the asset to its lowest level in more than three weeks, even as some market signals pointed to rising accumulation and possible oversold conditions.<\/p>\nBitcoin fell to as low as $65,500 on Friday, its weakest level since March 2. At the time of writing, BTC traded near<\/a> $66,300, down 2% over 24 hours and 6% over the past week (per CoinGecko\u2019s data).<\/p>\n <\/p>\nMeanwhile, the move came as roughly $14 billion in Bitcoin options expired, based on open interest. That expiry added pressure to an already cautious market and pushed traders toward a more defensive stance during the session.<\/p>\nETF outflows add to market pressure<\/strong><\/h1>\nETF activity also remained in focus as investors continued pulling funds from spot Bitcoin products. Data showed that investors withdrew $171 million from spot ETFs on Thursday, adding to short-term pressure on price action.<\/p>\nStill, the broader monthly picture looked more balanced. March recorded about $1.4 billion in net inflows into Bitcoin ETFs after four straight months of net outflows, showing that demand had not fully disappeared despite the latest setback.<\/p>\nWhile price remained under pressure, on-chain data pointed to continued buying from large holders and smaller wallets. According to Santiment, wallets holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC added 61,568 BTC over the past month, a 0.45% increase.<\/p>\nSmaller holders also showed similar behavior. Wallets with less than 0.01 BTC increased their balances by 0.42% over the same period, nearly matching the pace seen among whales and sharks.<\/p>\nAnalysts watch for oversold bounce<\/strong><\/h2>\nMarket watchers also pointed to oversold signals as Bitcoin traded well below its October 2025 all-time high above $126,000.
