Highlights
Bitcoin (BTC), the world’s largest cryptocurrency, maintains its market strength, firmly holding above the $72,000 mark. Investor sentiment remains robust as the Bitcoin price continues its ascent to new highs.
According to Bitcoin analyst Willy Woo, daily capital inflows stored by the Bitcoin network have reached $2 billion per day, a level comparable to the last significant bull market. Woo predicts that this time, the inflows are likely to increase even further. He attributes the notable increase in inflows to the opening up of spot ETFs, which has significantly boosted the influx of capital into the Bitcoin network.
On-chain data also shows that small Bitcoin wallets have been accumulating while whales have been selling their supplies. According to on-chain data provider Santiment, in the last two weeks as Bitcoin has consistently reached new all-time highs, the number of small wallets holding less than 0.1 BTC has continued to rise, increasing by 277,000. Conversely, wallets holding 1,000 BTC or more have decreased, with 105 fewer wallets recorded during the same period.
Renowned crypto analyst Ali Martinez sheds light on a significant development in the cryptocurrency market, as approximately $83 billion flows into various digital assets. Notably, a substantial portion of this influx, totaling $75 billion, is directed toward the two leading cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Martinez’s analysis, based on the Bitcoin MVRV Pricing Bands, suggests a pivotal price target for Bitcoin at $83,035. This observation underscores the growing momentum and investor interest in Bitcoin, with the cryptocurrency poised to reach significant milestones in its valuation.
The influx of funds into Bitcoin and Ethereum reflects a broader trend of institutional and retail investors seeking exposure to the cryptocurrency market.
On the other hand, U.S. equities also showed strength despite the inflation numbers for February coming to be hotter than expected. Director of Global Macro at Fidelity, Jurrien Timmer, highlights a significant trend in the financial landscape, emphasizing the resurgence of liquidity regardless of the Federal Reserve’s stance.
Timmer notes that overall liquidity, as indicated by the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet minus reverse repos (RRP) and the Treasury’s cash balance at the Fed (TGA), has been steadily increasing since mid-2023. This uptrend in liquidity has coincided with a rise in stock prices. Moreover, with liquidity staying strong, any major correction in the Bitcoin price or crypto looks like a distant possibility.
