And the broader crypto market has struggled to keep up with social sentiment for the past month. Meanwhile, the US BTC-based spot exchange trade fund (ETF) recorded its second largest cumulative monthly outflow in March.
The gradual decline in Bitcoin prices began on January 20th, shortly after the major digital currencies reached an all-time high of $109,114. BTC is down 23% from ATH.
As a result, overall bearish market sentiment led to Bitcoin’s worst first quarter performance since 2018, recording a 11.8% decline in the first quarter of 2025.
Bitcoin also discovered a negative performance in March for the first time in five years, falling 2.3% last month.
Additionally, US Spot BTC ETF recorded its second-largest sell after a $3.56 billion spill in February, with a net flow of $767.9 million in March.

The major assets closed the month in a bullish response from the crowd, sought to break the $100,000 price range. Santimento says there are opportunities for purchases where social signals begin to “start to show serious pain and fear.”
As history repeats itself, Bitcoin could see yet another fix before breaking the $100,000 barrier.
According to an expert analysis on March 31, Bitcoin is poised to witness a sale as its market value has been realized value (MVRV) ratio has formed a cross of death.
The Bitcoin Macro Index also suggests that assets may not reach $110,000, as metrics tracking technical and basic metrics show a divergence of bearishness.
