- BlackRock’s IBIT records $217 million in BTC inflows, its highest single-day surge since early February 2025.
- Both high-level investors and institutions continue to stand behind Bitcoin by accumulating 167,000 BTC over one month due to ongoing price fluctuations.
- The capital raise at MicroStrategy exceeds $500 million while the company aims to obtain further Bitcoin acquisitions through the issuance of preferred stock to institutions.
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust has returned to positive flow territory after weeks of steady outflows. On Tuesday, the ETF recorded inflows of 2,660 BTC, equivalent to $217.26 million. This marked the largest single-day net addition since February 4, 2025, according to data shared by market analyst Trader T.
Trading Activity Surges Alongside Inflows
Traders elevated their activities at IBIT while the exchange experienced substantial fund influxes. The trading activities of the ETF reached $1.6 billion in one day indicating that market participation was starting to pick up again. Investor sentiment changed direction because institutions are stepping back into Bitcoin-related investment products.
Long-term Bitcoin holders maintain their accumulating trend according to on-chain metrics which show Bitcoin price swings persist. The Glassnode findings indicate this investor group purchased 167,000 Bitcoin worth $14 billion throughout the previous month. On-chain data demonstrates an institutional belief that Bitcoin will thrive as an investment over the long term.
MicroStrategy Plans Large-Scale BTC Acquisition
Strategy announced a plan to acquire more Bitcoin through $500 million in available fund capital after renaming from MicroStrategy. The company plans to release 5 million series A strife perpetual stock shares with an issuance rate of 10.00%. The price for each share stands at $100 to allow MicroStrategy a systematic way to grow its Bitcoin holdings.
The rising demands coupled with increased Bitcoin movements fail to raise the price above $83,000. The Simple Moving Average at 200 days creates technical resistance in the range of approximately $84,000. The price target of $91,000 functions as a strong barrier to upward market progression as it represents the location of the 50-day SMA.
The price movement of Bitcoin becomes negative when it cannot sustain support at the $80,000 level. The price will likely decrease toward $75,000 if it falls under this support level. Short-term market trends and investor attitudes will be influenced by the Federal Reserve interest rate decision that is set to occur on Wednesday.
