WE’RE BACK BABY šŸ¤‘

BREAKING: Grayscale’s GBTC records first week of net inflows

bitcoin

The Bitcoin ETFs are ā€œbackā€.

Last week saw net inflows every single day.

Can you believe this is the first full week of inflows since mid March?

In total, the Bitcoin ETFs bought in $948.3 million for the week.

That’s a huge step up from the prior weeks.

ETF flows

With inflows of this magnitude, the Bitcoin ETF’s purchased 4.5x the amount of Bitcoin mined.

That’s a pretty solid demand/supply dynamic…

AND, Grayscale recorded it’s first ever weekly inflow…

Last week Grayscale experienced net inflows of $12.3 million.

(it may be a little hard to see on the chart below, but it’s there)

Grayscale

BlackRock continues to edge closer and closer to flipping Grayscale as the largest Bitcoin ETF.

Currently the gap is down to 12,666 Bitcoin:

  • 🟢 BlackRock: 276,760 Bitcoin

  • šŸ”“ Grayscale: 289,426 Bitcoin

Flippening

And with the Bitcoin ETFs once again popping off, Bitcoin’s price exploded from ~$61,000 to ~$67,000.

We’re so back. šŸ˜Ž

Can they do it again next week?

WHY BITCOIN HITS $1 MILLION IN 2024 šŸ™Š

We’re going to see a $1 million Bitcoin.

This year. šŸ¤Æ

That’s the prediction out from Samson Mow.

smow1

Samson Mow is a renowned Bitcoiner, entrepreneur & investor.

He’s the CEO of JAN3, a Bitcoin focussed company aiming to speed up hyperbitcoinization.

In his latest interview, Samson broke down why he thinks we’ll see Bitcoin hit $1 million per coin.

By the end of 2024.

ā€œI think we’re going to see a million this year… 2024.ā€

Samson Mow

Samson believes Bitcoin's price has been suppressed for years. It should’ve already hit $100,000.

ā€œI think the Bitcoin price has been suppressed for a very long time. We should’ve hit $100k a few years ago. But if you look at the amount of fraud that was perpetrated by FTX and other companies - that’s what stole $100k from Bitcoin in 2021.ā€

Samson Mow

Samson argues the effects of FTX & other bad actors are still felt in the Bitcoin price today.

But - it’s coming to an end.

ā€œIt’s very clear, if you’re looking carefully, that there’s a massive amount of demand that’s increasing constantly from the ETFs. That will outpace any of the untangling of fraudulent activities.ā€

Samson Mow

Combine the increased demand of the Bitcoin ETFs with the supply reduction from the April halving?

A $1 million Bitcoin is no longer a pipe dream.

ā€œGiven all of that and given we’ve effectively almost reached the previous all-time highs pre-halving, I don’t see it being impossible that we see $1 million this year.ā€

Samson Mow

Our take?

A $1 million dollar Bitcoin by the end of this year is a touch too optimistic.

But - do we see prices significantly higher by the end of 2024?

Without a doubt. šŸ’£

ETHEREUM EXCHANGE BALANCE āš–ļø

Today we’ll be taking a look at the amount of Ethereum available for sale on exchanges.

This metric is super simple but extremely useful.

As always, here’s how to interpret the chart:

  • Decreasing exchange balances: Bullish indicator as it signals a shift towards long-term holding šŸ‚

  • Increasing exchange balances: Bearish indicator as coins being transferred to exchanges are more likely to be sold 🐻

onchain

Currently there is only 12,875,352 ETH available for sale on exchanges.

That’s ~10.75% of the entire circulating supply. And it effectively puts this metric at an all time low.

(it’s been hitting new all-time lows every week forever)

In fact, as a percentage there’s even less Ethereum on exchanges than Bitcoin.

That’s insane, considering Bitcoin’s exchange balances are already exceptionally low.

And like Bitcoin, there just isn’t that much ETH available for sale.

It just goes to show how good Ethereum’s supply dynamics are right now.šŸ‚
