BTC Price Volatility Despite ETF Inflows
Meanwhile, BTC has encountered quite the turbulence over the past day despite inflows in Bitcoin ETFs. BTC price traded at $64,352 today, up slightly by 0.09%. Its 24-hour lows and tops are $62,248.94 and $65,593.24, respectively.
The recent volatile movement comes against the backdrop of massive $2.5 billion liquidations as BTC slipped below $63,000. However, on-chain data also spotlights significant accumulations over the past day. Also, 37,000 Bitcoin options expiry is scheduled for today, increasing uncertainty.
Besides, it’s worth mentioning that Microstrategy announced plans to file for a $2 billion equity offering to buy more Bitcoin, igniting optimism over future movements. Also, Coinbase beat its Q2 earnings estimates, offering further bullishness to the crypto industry and related financial products.
Intriguingly, institutional interest in Bitcoin also saw a notable increase in Q2 this year, as spotlighted by market data revealing institutions’ BTC holdings. Mercado Libre and BNY Mellon, among many other renowned institutions, revealed exposure to Bitcoin in recent 13F filings, stirring further optimism.
