What is causing the Bullish sentiment — Last week a series of events took place that have triggered a wave of positive sentiment in the market.

Let’s analyse

Bitcoin rallies towards $90k

BTC saw a significant uptrend this week and broke the resistance it was facing at the 85k level. In the past 24 hours BTC has gained 4% and is heading towards the $89k mark to test. It will be a crucial level for BTC as after this the psychological push towards $90k becomes easier.

Data from SoSoValue shows that Bitcoin ETFs saw a net inflow of $744.4 million, marking their largest gain in eight weeks and extending their daily inflow streak to six straight days.

Five funds contributed to the surge, with BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) leading the way at $537.5 million. Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) followed, bringing in $136.5 million.

Ethereum trades above $2k
