Bitcoin Nears $116K as ETFs Drive Market Momentum

Over the past 24 hours, the crypto market has seen renewed institutional interest especially in Bitcoin boosted by easing inflation data, expectations of U.S. Fed rate cuts, and large inflows into exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Investors seem more confident, pushing Bitcoin toward new highs, while altcoins are trying to ride the wave. Below is the latest on Bitcoin, key takeaways, and price & chart movements of top 5 coins.

  • Bitcoin ETFs Surge: Spot Bitcoin ETFs have pulled in around $642 million in one day; Ether ETFs also saw strong inflows (~$406 million).
  • These inflows are part of a multi-day streak for Bitcoin, four consecutive days of positive inflows.
  • Macro support: U.S. producer price inflation came in cooler which increases chances of a rate cut by the Federal Reserve around mid-September.
  • Price action for Bitcoin has been strong: briefly breached $116,300 in intraday trading, currently around $115,000-$116,600.

What to Watch & Forecasts

Resistance Levels: BTC needs to clear ~$120,000 to confirm further upside; failure to hold ~$113,000-112,000 could see retracements.

Federal Reserve Decision: The next FOMC meeting (mid-September) will be critical. A rate cut or even strong hints could further fuel crypto gains.

ETF Flow Continuation: If ETFs keep bringing in capital, liquidity is tightening (less supply on exchanges), which tends to amplify price moves.

Altcoins Sensitivity: ETH, SOL, XRP etc are more sensitive to regulatory news and macro-economic signals; good upside but also higher risk.
