Bitcoin surprised traders with a strong rebound after the halving, possibly setting a bullish path for BNB, NEAR, MNT and RNDR to follow.
Bitcoin (BTC) recovered sharply from the intra-week lows and is likely to close the halving week with a minor loss of roughly 1%. According to Farside Investors data, the spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds witnessed an inflow of $30.4 million a day before the halving, halting the five successive days of outflows.
The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) has seen the majority of outflows, while BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has continually attracted investments. Bloomberg Intelligence ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said in a X post that the IBIT has seen “69 days of straight inflows.”
The Bitcoin ETFs inflows are likely to grow from strength to strength in 2024. Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley believes that several wealth management firms will own Bitcoin ETFs by the end of 2024. He highlighted that the firms were “long only” and will be “an amazing new constituent in the Bitcoin space.”
