    ​Bitcoin Surges Amid Eased Financial Conditions, Analyst Predicts All-Time High in Q2

    Bitcoin surged past $86,800 on Wednesday, climbing nearly 5% as investors responded to signals of looser financial conditions from the Federal Reserve and growing expectations of a liquidity-driven rally. The Fed announced that it would slow the pace of reducing its $6.8 trillion balance sheet, capping the runoff of Treasury securities at $5 billion per month, down from $25 billion.  The move aims to prevent disruptions in funding markets amid ongoing debt ceiling tensions.  The central bank als...

    Bitcoin Liquidity Drying Up as Market Adjusts to Sharp Correction

    Bitcoin’s market liquidity is tightening as the crypto continues to consolidate following a steep correction from its February peak above $102,000.  On-chain data from Glassnode shows that capital inflows have slowed significantly, with liquidity conditions deteriorating across both spot and futures markets.  Exchange inflows—a key measure of market activity—have dropped more than 54% from their cycle peak, reflecting lower investor participation, Glassnode wrote in a report on Tuesday.

    Bitcoin Slumps, But Trump’s Latest Reserve Push Adds New Twist

    Bitcoin’s sharp pullback is deepening as risk aversion grips global markets, yet a surprising policy shift from Washington could inject fresh momentum into the digital asset.  The U.S. government is reportedly seeking to expand its Bitcoin holdings, a move that—if executed—could alter the supply dynamics of an already tightening market. The crypto is now trading near $81,600, down 25% from its January peak of $109,000, with selling pressure intensifying as liquidity conditions tighten, according...

    A U.S. bankruptcy court has granted liquidators of defunct hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC) permission to expand their claim against FTX to $1.53 billion, rejecting objections from FTX’s debtors that the move was untimely and unfair. Judge John T. Dorsey of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware ruled on Thursday that 3AC’s liquidators had provided sufficient notice of their claim and were hampered in their investigation by FTX’s failure to share relevant records in a timely...

H.B. 230—Blockchain and Digital Innovation Amendments passed Utah's Senate by a 19-7 vote after legislators amended it to eliminate language that would have authorized Utah’s state treasurer to allocate state-managed funds toward a Bitcoin reserve.  Later that night, the House concurred with the Senat...

But the rally has faded as traders take profits and reassess the market impact of the government’s new digital asset policy.  Bitcoin has since rebounded slightly to $87,200, CoinGecko data shows.
