Bitcoin has experienced consistent gains throughout April, driving its price closer to the critical $100,000 mark. This upward momentum appears to be fueled by fresh capital inflows, as investor sentiment strengthens. If this trend continues, it could serve as a catalyst for Bitcoin to reach new heights, with the $105,000 level acting as a potential trigger for further rallies in price. Bitcoin Finds Investors’ Support In recent weeks, we have seen over $1 billion in daily net capital inflows, signaling a return of demand-side strength for Bitcoin. The Net Realized Profit/Loss metric reflects these inflows, showing that the new investors are absorbing the incoming supply. Sellers are capitalizing on their profits, while buyers continue purchasing Bitcoin at the current market price. Usually, heavy profit taking is considered a bearish sign as it tends to lead to a market top. However, in the case of Bitcoin, this point comes when realized profits cross the $1.5 billion mark, which leaves BTC room for growth at the moment. Furthermore, since October 2023, the market has maintained a profit-driven regime, with capital inflows consistently exceeding outflows. This steady influx of new capital reinforces the positive sentiment in the market and mirrors the bullish momentum seen during the October 2023 rally. This equilibrium between supply and demand indicates strong market sentiment, signaling that Bitcoin is poised for further gains. Bitcoin Net Realized Profit/Loss.

These inflows have remained largely positive over the past week, with the exception of May 6, when $85 million in outflows were recorded. This dip was linked to uncertainty surrounding the US Federal Reserve’s decision on interest rates. However, the overall trend in spot ETF flows continues to suggest strong demand, which could help support Bitcoin’s price movement. Bitcoin Spot ETF Flows.

If the market continues to exhibit strength and investor confidence remains solid, Bitcoin may flip $100,000 into support, paving the way for further gains. The next major target for Bitcoin is $105,000. Breaching this level is crucial for Bitcoin to maintain its momentum and remain firmly in the six digit range. If Bitcoin manages to secure this level, it could eventually make its way to $110,000, extending the bullish rally. Bitcoin Price Analysis.

In this scenario, the price may fall back to $93,625, invalidating the current bullish outlook and delaying any recovery.
