Following an impressive performance in the third week of April marked by $3.06 billion in net inflows, these Bitcoin ETFs did well to retain investors interest by attracting almost $2 billion in deposits over the past week.  Notably, Bitcoin has recently seen a market rebound, with prices moving from $84,000 to $97,000 in the last two weeks. The rising inflows to Bitcoin demonstrate a strong market demand backing this resurgence, hinting at the potential of a sustained uptrend. Related Reading: Bitcoin At Critical Juncture Price Levels To Watch: Analyst Bitcoin ETFs Drive Into May On Bullish Note According to ETF tracking platform SoSoValue, the US Bitcoin Spot ETFs recorded $1.81 billion in net inflows as the market crossed into the month of May. This represents the third-largest weekly inflow in 2025 as institutional investors actively rotate their capital into the cryptocurrency and all related markets. In a familiar tale, BlackRocks IBIT attracted the largest investments with over $2.48 billion in net inflows. Interestingly, IBIT  accounted for all deposits on Friday, May 2nd, valued at $674.91 million, demonstrating an unrivaled market dominance. Other ETFs that experienced a net inflow include Grayscale’s BTC, VanEcks HODL, and Invescos BTCO, with investments ranging from $10 million – $41 million. Meanwhile, Fidelitys BTCO accounted for the largest weekly net outflow at $201.90 million in what proved a bearish week for the second-largest Bitcoin ETF.

While Franklin Templetons EZBC, Wisdom Trees BTCW, Hashdexs DEFI, and Valkyries BRRR have zero market flows.  Following this bullish trading week, the US Bitcoin Spot ETFs boast of $40.24 billion in cumulative total net inflow. Meanwhile, their total net assets are now valued at $113.15 billion, representing 5.87% of Bitcoin’s market cap.

Bitcoin Spot ETF Records Consecutive Weeks Of Inflows As Investor Confidence Grows

Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETF) have been the talk of the town – and rightly so – after the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the listing of the investment products during the week. Meanwhile, the Bitcoin spot ETF market continued its resurgence on one side, marked by a second consecutive week of positive inflows. This streak of positive inflows represents a complete shift from previous weeks when investment activity was dangerously low. However, this recent turnaround reflects a rise in investor confidence over the past two weeks. Bitcoin Spot ETF: $252 Million In Net Inflows In One Day On Friday, May 24, the US Bitcoin spot ETF market saw another day of positive inflows, marking the 10th consecutive day of significant investment into these funds. According to data from SoSoValue, the market recorded a total net inflow of approximately $252 million to close the week. Related Reading: Lido (LDO) Takes The Lead With 13% Surge Post Ethereum ETF Approval Key Levels To Watch Breaking this down, BlackRock amassed a substantial percentage of the total daily investment, with the IBIT ETF posting an inflow of $182 million. Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), on the other hand, did not attract any capital on Friday, ending the week with zero daily outflows and inflow.  Other ETF issuers, such as Fidelity, Bitwise, and ARK Investment, also witnessed impressive inflows on Friday. Most notably, Fidelitys FBTC came second to BlackRocks fund after attracting about $43.7 million on the last day of the week. More importantly, this positive inflow day means that the Bitcoin spot ETF market has amassed significant investment every day for the second week in a row. And after the close of Fridays trading session, the net inflow in the past week stood at an impressive $1.06 billion. This sustained positive trend in terms of capital inflow suggests that investor confidence in Bitcoin ETFs might be back at an all-time high. The last time there was a consistent positive capital inflow into these products, the Bitcoin price rose to a new all-time high. With Ethereum spot ETFs on the brink of trading in the US, crypto exchange-trade products seem to be in fashion at the moment. And they might just be the catalyst that the crypto market – particularly Bitcoin – needs to resume what is left of the bull cycle. Bitcoin Price At A Glance As of this writing, Bitcoin is valued at $68,868, reflecting a 2.5% price increase in the last 24 hours. According to data from CoinGecko, the premier cryptocurrency is up by 3% on the weekly timeframe.

Crypto Analyst Explains XRP Price Roadmap To $37 As Bears Fight For Control

A crypto analyst has outlined a long-term bullish roadmap for the XRP price, forecasting a gradual climb toward staggering all-time highs of $37. While the technical analysis and chart patterns support this optimistic outlook, bearish signals still linger on the horizon, highlighting a critical battleground for control between bulls and bears.  XRP Price Roadmap To $37 Drawing on the historical behavior of the XRP price action, market expert Egrag Crypto has highlighted the significance of the relationship between two key Moving Averages (MA): the 21-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 33-week Simple Moving Average (SMA).  Related Reading: Two Major Fibonacci Levels Put XRP Price At $8.40 And $27 In a technical report shared on X (formerly Twitter), the analyst noted that the interaction between these two MAs has repeatedly provided strong signals during both bullish and bearish market phases. He emphasized that this relationship could either set the stage for XRP to skyrocket toward a final target of $37 in this market cycle or trigger a bearish price breakdown.  According to the analysts chart and historical data, every time the 21 EMA crosses above the 33 SMA on the weekly chart, a dramatic price rally for XRP has always followed. Previous instances have seen staggering gains of 520.25% in 2025, 855.36% in 2021, 1,600.63% in 2018, and even as high as 6,505.21% in 2017. These moves were all preceded by the same crossover pattern: the 21 EMA taking a dominant position above the 33 SMA.  Based on this cyclic behavior, Egrag Crypto projects that XRP could once again be poised for a parabolic move upwards. The most conservative bullish targets lie around $5.71 and $9.57, while more aggressive estimates point to $27, with an ultimate extension potentially reaching $37. These price levels have been mapped out by projecting the percentage gains from past bull runs onto the chart structure.  Egrag Crypto has further emphasized that XRPs bullish setup is being watched closely. Its price hovers around $2.34, signaling a substantial upside if history repeats.  Bears And Bulls Fight For Dominance  Despite Egrag Cryptos optimistic outlook for the XRP price, the analyst warns that the bears are not out of the picture yet. The same Moving Average crossover logic that signals bullish strength could also serve as a double-edged sword, potentially indicating a powerful bearish reversal.  Related Reading: XRP Price At $10-$20 Only The Beginning, Its Headed For $1,000 Analyst Reveals Historically, when the 21 EMA crosses below the 33 SMA (a bearish cross), the XRP price has entered significant downtrends. The past two bearish crosses on May 28 and November 2021 led to steep declines of 87% and 72%, respectively.  Egrag Crypto cautions that a similar bearish crossover could occur, potentially triggering a price drop of nearly 79.54% from XRPs local top. If this crossover does appear, the market expert has revealed plans to exit a large portion of his XRP position, signaling that the macro top has been reached and a prolonged bear phase is likely to follow.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Bitcoin Sees Largest ETF Inflows Since January, Becomes 5th Largest Asset In The World

Bitcoin has spent the majority of the past 24 hours on a notable rally that saw it price peak at an intraday high of $94,320. This rally marks an interesting change from the tight consolidation range between $80,000 and $85,000 that had defined Bitcoins trajectory through much of April.  Behind this breakout lies a significant uptick in institutional activity through Spot Bitcoin ETFs, which recorded their highest daily inflows since January. Interestingly, this inflow surge has helped push Bitcoin into the top five largest assets globally, surpassing Alphabet, Silver, and Amazon in market capitalization. Spot Bitcoin ETFs Sees Largest Inflows Since January According to data from SoSoValue, US-based Spot Bitcoin ETFs raked in $936.43 million in net inflows on Tuesday, April 22 alone, marking their best single-day performance since January 17 when it registered $1.08 billion. Wednesday, April 23 also witnessed similar performance, registering inflows of $916.91 million. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Crash: Crypto Analyst Reveals What Would Reject Current Bearish Hypothesis BlackRocks iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) led the way with a staggering $643.16 million in inflows, followed closely by Ark & 21 Shares’ ARKB with $129.5 million. Furthermore, Spot Bitcoin ETFs are now on four days of consecutive inflows of $100 million or more. The last time such happened was in the last week of January. These inflows into Spot Bitcoin ETFs follow a weeks-long dry spell in ETF activity, which saw many traders question the sustainability of institutional interest. Nonetheless, the timing of these inflows couldnt be more impactful. Bitcoins price surged in tandem with recent ETF activity, showing the the strong effect these ETFs have come to have on the spot price of Bitcoin. BTC Surpasses Amazon And Google To Become Fifth Largest Asset Worldwide The ETF inflows lit the spark and the resulting market reaction pushed Bitcoins rise up the global rankings. According to data from CompaniesMarketCap, Bitcoins total market value climbed to over $1.87 trillion as it crossed over $94,000 for the first time in eight weeks. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Warns Of Volume Drop That Could Trigger 60% Bitcoin Price Crash To $49,000 This interesting move allowed it to overtake both Google (Alphabet) and Amazon in market cap rankings, especially considering these stock prices have been on a notable decline in a 30-day timeframe. This development positions BTC not only as a leading cryptocurrency but also as a top-tier macroeconomic asset, competing on the global stage with traditional tech and commodity giants. As it stands, Bitcoin is now outperforming the NASDAQ 100, and analysts are pointing to signs of decoupling from traditional indices. Now that Bitcoin is trading above $90,000 again, the next focus is on where it goes from here. The bullish trajectory would be on the $100,000 price level, and whether BTC can break above this level before the end of April. That said, the $94,000 region is now shaping up to act as an early resistance band, and short-term profit-taking could cause pullbacks that might liquidate buy orders.
