0354 GMT - Bitcoin declines 0.2% in early Asian trading to $61,966.47. Strategy, the world's largest corporate holder of bitcoin, has become a net seller of the cryptocurrency, as it increasingly needs to generate cash to service dividend payments and other obligations, Crypto Finance's Matteo Bottacini says. "Periodic bitcoin sales may gradually become a feature of the structure rather than an exception," he adds. Bottacini sees fewer natural buyers compared with previous cycles amid continued bitcoin ETF outflows. From a technical perspective, bitcoin remains rangebound, with support at around $58,000 and resistance at $62,000-$64,000. The broader price structure of lower highs and lower lows signals a period of consolidation to come, Crypto Finance says. (jason.chau@wsj.com)
