Fact Check
The BlockBeats flash precisely confirms the core numerics: a low near $63,300, a rebound to ~$64,600 (rounding to the claim's $64,610), and exactly $107 million ($1.07亿) in 4-hour liquidations. The crypto.news reports confirm the $62K support, $67K resistance, ETF outflows, and U.S.-Iran/Strait of Hormuz geopolitical drivers. All four supplied sources and corroborating search results align on the same June 2026 market narrative.
Summary

Bitcoin traded near $64,000 within a roughly $60,000-$67,000 range as U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a sixth straight week of net outflows, with SoSoValue data showing about $226.8 million, or roughly $227 million, withdrawn in the week ending June 18. Analysts said the slower pace of withdrawals versus early June may suggest selling pressure is moderating, but a hawkish Federal Reserve, a stronger dollar and still-limited fresh institutional demand continued to cap upside. Some market participants also said capital may be rotating toward AI-related equities, while options positioning left $62,000 as a key support area and $67,000 as near-term resistance.
