Bitcoin has fallen approximately 14% over the past week and 22.7% over the past four weeks, trading at around $62,689.64. Strategy Chairman Michael Saylor attributes the decline to capital rotation into AI infrastructure, citing $400 billion deployed in AI over six months versus $4 billion outflows from bitcoin ETFs. He maintains that volatility creates opportunity and that the weakness is temporary. However, bears point to concerning signals: Strategy recently sold 32 BTC, which analysts say exacerbated bearish sentiment, heavy ETF outflows, and the fact that other asset classes are at record highs while bitcoin struggles. Pseudonymous trader QE Infinity stated 'Bitcoin just looks broken at this point.' Saylor's firm still holds 843,706 BTC, the largest corporate bitcoin holdings. The debate highlights a divide between those viewing the drop as a temporary rotation and those seeing structural weakness in crypto.
