- The latest survey from QCP Capital indicates a resurgence of global liquidity flowing back into Bitcoin ETFs. Consequently, it anticipates that BTC could reach at least $70,000 by the end of March.
- Bitcoin (BTC) has once again surpassed $52,000, driven by notable inflows from spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) after a span of over two years.
- QCP Capital notes that a sustainable flow is expected with the redirection of global liquidity into these spot ETFs.
While the Bitcoin price continues to trade around the $52,000 level, according to the QCP Capital report, a new record could be set in March!
Is Bitcoin Ready for a New ATH?
Newly launched spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted billions of dollars with fresh daily inflows reaching new highs. Earlier this week, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) alone witnessed withdrawals of approximately $500 million. QCP Capital’s recent survey indicates a return of global liquidity to Bitcoin ETFs, hence the expectation for Bitcoin to reach at least $70,000 by the end of March.
Bitcoin (BTC) once again rose above $52,000 with significant inflows from spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) after more than two years. These inflows are coming from BTC spot ETFs, averaging between $500 million and $650 million daily. This flow translates to the acquisition of 10,000 to 13,000 BTC on a daily basis.
QCP Capital suggests that sustainable momentum is expected with the redirection of global liquidity into these spot ETFs. Institutions such as Fidelity, signaling the mainstream acceptance of the crypto asset class, have made a significant change by allocating 1-3% of All-in-One conservative ETFs to cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, we are already witnessing Bitcoin ETFs starting to gain market share, challenging gold’s position as the world’s largest asset class.
Beyond spot market activity, there is an increase in BTC call option purchases. Approximately $10 million in premiums has been spent this week for strike prices ranging from 60,000 to 80,000 between April and December.
With these significant capital inflows, QCP Capital analysts predict that Bitcoin could comfortably surpass its all-time high by the end of March. This clearly reflects growing investor confidence and bullish sentiment in the crypto market.
