Zakhil Suresh, CEO Of BitSave On Bitcoin
"Bitcoin breached k levels for the first time since November 2021. The world's largest crypto asset is now up more than 200% from its previous bottom levels in November 2022 post the FTX fiasco. This rally has been primarily triggered by institutional allocation and the increased retail participation in the last few months due to Bitcoin Spot ETF applications in the US and upcoming Bitcoin halving. Even though prices started dropping immediately after 11 spot ETFs were approved by the SEC last month, owing to profit-booking by early investors, Bitcoin found support below k which also coincided with 100 Day Moving Average.
AUM of all Bitcoin spot ETFs combined have crossed 39.40 billion USD (data source coinglass). Bitcoin is now the second largest ETF commodity in the US, surpassing Silver which has .5B in AUM. Fresh inflows from institutions have helped Bitcoin maintain its bullish trend.
Important level to cross right now for Bitcoin is the k resistance to continue its uptrend going into halving. Digital asset investment products saw weekly inflows totalling US8m last week (coinshares data), marking the fourth consecutive week of inflows. Bitcoin saw US0m inflows last week, bringing year-to-date inflows to US.6bn."
