- Bitcoin’s price has increased by 4% in the last 24 hours, despite some bearish metrics.
Bitcoin ETFs have been a popular topic in the cryptocurrency world since their approval in January 2024. While the United States has been a global leader in the ETF sector, new players, such as Australia and Hong Kong, have begun to make their mark.
Hong Kong and Australia Leading the Bitcoin ETF Race
Hong Kong’s Bitcoin ETFs have seen a significant rise in flows recently, with a 28.6% increase from the previous reserve. This surge has increased Hong Kong’s Bitcoin ETF reserves to 4,941 BTC, valued at over $310 million.
Australia’s Monochrome Bitcoin ETF (IBTC) has also been making news. Since its inception, it has received an influx of 83 BTC, nearing the 100 Bitcoin threshold in total holdings.
Despite the increasing interest in Bitcoin ETFs, data from Dune Analytics indicates that the netflows of Bitcoin ETFs have been declining over the past few weeks. However, the net inflows remain high, indicating continued demand for Bitcoin and investor confidence.
Bitcoin’s Bullish Turn
Bitcoin’s price has been on the rise, with weekly and daily charts turning green. According to CoinMarketCap, Bitcoin’s price has increased by more than 4% in the last 24 hours, trading at $62,810.22 with a market capitalization of over $1.23 trillion.
Data from Coinglass shows a bullish signal, with Bitcoin’s Long/Short Ratio showing a significant increase. This suggests that the bullish sentiment around Bitcoin is growing. However, Bitcoin’s NVT ratio has also increased, indicating that the asset may be overvalued and hinting at a potential price correction.
If the bullish trend continues, Bitcoin’s price could reach $68k in the coming days. However, if a trend reversal occurs, as suggested by the NVT ratio, the price could drop to $56k.
