Bitcoin this week
On Thursday, the Bitcoin ETF recorded their biggest entrance day from 2025 to 1.18 billion dollars. Andft ETF recorded its second largest entrance day at $ 383.1 million, according to Sosovalue.
The rally started slower Wednesday, after the publication of the minutes of the last meeting of the Federal Reserve, which showed a divergence among those responsible for the way they are aggressively reducing interest rates. Bitcoin, also helped by a gathering in technological actions, ran at the end, reaching his first new record since May 22.
“It was then that we started to really withdraw the upper range,” said Markus Thielen, CEO of 10x Research. “We expect the one who arrives to direct the following Fed will be dominant. We also know that saving the budget deficit has been sort of pushed under the carpet,” he added, nodding to the “Big Beau Bill Act”, which should increase the federal deficit-and which can be a positive catalyst for Bitcoin.
This week’s movement sparked a large wave of short liquidations. In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin has experienced more than $ 650 million in short liquidation and more than $ 215 million. When traders use the lever effect to short-circuit bitcoin and the price of cryptocurrency, they buy bitcoin on the market to close their positions, which increases the price and makes more positions liquidate.
The independence of the Fed was a theme for the institutions which date back to April 17 around April 17. It is at this point that the entries in the Bitcoin ETF increased, and when President Donald Trump suggested that the “termination” of the president of the Federal Reserve Jerome Powell may be necessary given the position of the central bank on interest rates. Since then, the entries have increased to nearly $ 16 billion.
Investors expected Bitcoin to reach new records during the second half of the business treasury bills accelerate their bitcoin which bought speeds and the congress is getting closer to the adoption of cryptographic legislation. It would take a macro-event to hit the price of Bitcoin or delete it, according to Thielen.
“Powell could become the end of the month at the end of the month at the Fed meeting, and maybe he won’t,” said Thielen. “So we have to take the market in the short term simply because there are no real macro catalysts during the summer, and normally, long equity investors also do not support their risk in summer.”
For the week, Bitcoin is on the right track for a gain of almost 10%, while Ether is up more than 20%.
