Odaily News Analyst Markus Thielen stated that the Bitcoin demand structure is gradually repairing. He pointed out that strategic holdings continue to increase, providing stable buying support, the Coinbase Premium has rebounded, and the single-day net inflow of spot Bitcoin ETFs once reached $664 million, the highest level since mid-January.He believes that corporate capital, ETF inflows, and U.S. spot demand are forming a combined force, coupled with the return of stablecoin capital, market liquidity is gradually improving. Against this backdrop, Bitcoin's price may enter a new consolidation range. If the related trends continue, the probability of an upward move has increased, but the price action may still be dominated by consolidation.
According to analyst Markus Thielen, Bitcoin’s demand structure is gradually recovering. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) continues its accumulation, providing steady buying support; the Coinbase Premium is rising steadily; and spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a single-day net inflow of $664 million—the highest level since mid-January. Corporate treasury purchases, ETF inflows, and U.S. spot demand are converging, while stablecoin liquidity continues flowing back into the ecosystem—collectively strengthening liquidity support. Analysts note that the market may be forming a new consolidation range; if these trends persist, the probability of price advancing toward the upper bound of this range is increasing—though the move will not be linear.

According to The Block, Bitcoin rose approximately 6% this week, briefly reaching $76,300—the highest level in nearly two months—yet the Crypto Fear & Greed Index remains at 21 (“Extreme Fear”). Multiple institutional analysts characterize this rally as “liquidity-driven” rather than a structural strengthening. Glassnode notes that while spot demand and ETF inflows have improved, the recovery lacks depth, institutional participation remains cautious, and options market positioning continues to favor downside protection. Bitfinex attributes this price increase primarily to concentrated buying by “Strategists” (who purchased 13,927 BTC last week), rather than an organic rebound in demand. Analysts broadly view $75,000 as a critical support level; if structural buying wanes and this level fails to hold, prices could retreat to the $70,000–$71,000 range. On the macro front, the Federal Reserve’s policy trajectory and the June FOMC meeting are seen as the next key risk catalysts.
Xie Jiayin, Bitget’s Head of Chinese-speaking Markets, revealed significant progress across multiple core business areas. In terms of liquidity, Bitget ranked first globally among centralized exchanges (CEXs) in net fund inflows over the past seven days. Its BTC reserves grew 86% year-on-year to 36,700 BTC. According to TokenInsight’s report, Bitget’s derivatives and spot liquidity both ranked among the top two globally. Strategically, the platform continues advancing its transformation into UEX, a comprehensive exchange. This quarter, Bitget completed a full app redesign, fully launched CFD trading—supporting 79 assets with up to 500x leverage—and expanded its U.S. stock token offering to 263 tickers. Per CoinGlass data, Bitget leads the industry in U.S. stock futures open interest, and its CFD daily trading volume exceeded $6 billion. On the product front, Bitget launched IPO Prime, an innovative token sale platform. Its inaugural offering is preSPAX—a digital token mirroring the listing gains of SpaceX. Additionally, Bitget completed a three-layer reconstruction of its AI trading engine and introduced GetClaw, a cloud-based AI trading assistant enabling users to execute automated live trades via natural-language commands. For its VIP ecosystem, Bitget established a $5 million Protection Fund and distributed nearly 1,000 preSPAX tokens to VIP users in two free airdrops: the first round (760 tokens) was distributed on April 16, and the second round (190 tokens) will be distributed on April 20.
According to CoinTelegraph, eToro’s latest data shows that during the sharp decline in AI and tech stocks in Q1 2026, investors in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) bucked the trend by increasing their positions—particularly in AI infrastructure and software stocks such as ServiceNow (+125%), Super Micro Computer (+65%), Adobe (+54%), and Oracle (+38%). Regarding crypto-related equities, Strategy Inc. remained the eighth-largest holding, reflecting investors’ continued exposure to crypto assets. Deutsche Bank’s report dated April 13 noted that this conflict is more likely to strengthen—not weaken—Gulf-region demand for AI, cybersecurity, and sovereign digital infrastructure.
According to CoinDesk, against the backdrop of the ongoing U.S.-Iran geopolitical conflict—now lasting approximately six weeks—the Bitcoin market is clearly bifurcating into two camps: “passive buyers,” represented by Strategy and spot ETFs, continue accumulating BTC, while whales, mining companies, and certain sovereign holders are shifting toward selling. The selling pressure is evident: whale addresses holding 1,000–10,000 BTC have shifted from net buying to substantial net selling, with their year-to-date holdings changing from roughly +200,000 BTC to –188,000 BTC; publicly listed mining firms, under mounting cost pressures, have also concentrated their selling—offloading over 19,000 BTC in a single week. Additionally, sovereign holders such as Bhutan have sold approximately 70% of their Bitcoin reserves since October 2024. Analysis suggests that although market sentiment briefly plunged into the “extreme fear” zone, Bitcoin’s price has remained range-bound between $65,000 and $73,000, indicating that this “floor” is primarily propped up by a narrow base of institutional buying. Currently, the buyer base continues to contract, and the market’s next directional move will hinge on whether institutional inflows can sustain momentum and break through key resistance levels.
According to BitcoinTreasuries.NET, Lance Vitanza, an analyst at investment bank TD Cowen—which manages $15 billion in assets—has lowered Strategy’s (MSTR) target price from $440 to $350 while maintaining a “Buy” rating.
According to The Block, Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman of Strategy, stated that Bitcoin may have already bottomed near $60,000, as forced sellers have gradually exited the market. Saylor also expressed skepticism regarding the security threat posed by quantum computing, describing the associated risks as still “theoretical” at present and believing the issue can be adequately addressed in the future—thus warranting no excessive concern.
