#BTC, did multiple retest back to the zone and kinda have it break and retest. Price already rejecting the zone multiple times, which is sort of #bullish as of now. #ETFs also get approvals, good to see price sustaining over the zone.

Leading up to the approval of spot #ETFs in January, speculation surged, leading Long-Term Holders (#LTH) to either cash out for profit or reallocate their holdings into new #ETF products. This resulted in a significant decrease in LTH supply balance by approximately 299.5K #BTC since November, from a peak of 14.996M BTC. Notably, analysis of #GBTC flows, with around 661k BTC inflow and 151.5K #BTC outflows in 2021, suggests that remaining #LTH supply, totaling 148K #BTC, is being spent by investors. This trend aligns with previous research indicating LTHs begin distributing their holdings as the market approaches all-time high prices.
The new spot #Bitcoin #ETF products have also created a new source of demand for BTC, with an incredible +90K #BTC in net flows migrating into the ETFs. These inflows account for a staggering $5.7B, and bring the total AUM of the #ETFs to nearly $38B.
These #ETF products have for the first time allowed institutional investors to gain exposure to the BTC asset via traditional rails, opening a new degree of freedom for demand and speculation.
