- Bitcoin traded at USD 73,588.7 on Investing.com at 06:46 Berlin time on November 12, 2026.
- US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded another net outflow on November 11, extending the withdrawal streak to four trading days.
- Strategy and Metaplanet continued buying Bitcoin, offsetting part of the institutional selling pressure.
- Rate-hike expectations and the USD 73,000 to USD 74,000 support zone remain key near-term factors.
Bitcoin price remained near USD 74,000 on November 12 as continued ETF withdrawals and expectations of another US rate increase competed with buying from corporate treasury holders. Investing.com displayed Bitcoin at USD 73,588.7 at 06:46 Berlin time, with a 24-hour volume of USD 23.84 billion and a market capitalization of USD 1.48 trillion.
The same Investing.com snapshot showed Bitcoin down 3.2504% over seven days, 10.084% over one month and 16.0074% year to date. Its reported 52-week range was USD 57,832.5 to USD 104,008.7. These figures describe the market position shown on the page and should not be read as a UTC daily close comparison.
ETF outflows keep institutional demand under pressure
US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded roughly USD 109 million of net outflows on November 11, according to Proactive via Yahoo Finance. The report said withdrawals over the preceding seven days reached about USD 1.66 billion, with BlackRock's IBIT accounting for approximately USD 79 million of the latest selling.
A separate report by The Chosun Daily said the outflow on November 11 was USD 95 million and marked the fourth consecutive trading day of net withdrawals. The differing figures reflect separate reporting or data conventions; both sources describe continued net selling rather than a return of sustained ETF inflows.
Corporate buying offsets part of pressure
Corporate accumulation has not stopped. Proactive reported that Strategy disclosed a purchase of 7,212 Bitcoin worth roughly USD 530 million, while Japan's Metaplanet added 528 Bitcoin. That creates a more balanced flow picture: ETF investors have been reducing exposure, while corporate treasury buyers continue to accumulate.
Macro conditions remain a risk for the Bitcoin price. The Chosun Daily reported that futures markets assigned an 87.3% probability to a 0.25-percentage-point Federal Reserve rate increase at the December 8-9 meeting. Higher expected rates can make non-yielding assets less attractive, although the market outcome will depend on forthcoming data and central-bank communication.
Support zone remains in focus
Proactive identified USD 73,000 to USD 74,000 as the area Bitcoin needs to hold to avoid another leg lower, while a move above USD 76,000 would improve short-term momentum. For investors, the Bitcoin price therefore remains caught between weak institutional flows, macroeconomic pressure and ongoing corporate demand rather than a clearly established trend.
