Bitcoin Touches $71K Amid 'Unprecedented Inflow Access For Traditional Capital'

Bitcoin BTC/USD prices are on a tear, approaching record highs after BlackRock‘s BLK Bitcoin spot ETF achieved record-breaking inflows.

The price of Bitcoin touched $70,999 earlier today, currently sitting at $70,576, up 2.1% over the past 24 hours.

Other major cryptocurrencies also saw gains, with Ethereum ETH/USD at $3,822 (up 1.3%), Binance Coin BNB/USD at $666 (up 7.3%), and Solana SOL/USD at $168.8 (up 2.1%).

ETF Boom Fuels Bitcoin Adoption

The rapid growth of BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF has been a key driver of the current rally. This ETF crossed the $20 billion mark in assets under management faster than any other ETF in history.

QCP Capital, a leading crypto research firm, highlights the significance of these developments.

“Unprecedented inflow access for traditional capital around the world will undoubtedly keep BTC price supported,” they state in a recent research report.

Nonfarm Payroll Data: A Potential Catalyst?

The upcoming release of Nonfarm Payroll (NFP) data on Friday is seen as a potential catalyst for further price movement. While markets currently predict no rate cuts this summer, a weaker NFP report could change that narrative.

QCP Capital suggests this could be the key to breaking Bitcoin’s all-time high.

Looking Beyond Bitcoin: Ethereum’s Turn?

QCP Capital also sees potential in Ethereum, anticipating a price surge with the upcoming launch of its own spot ETF.

They’ve even introduced a new investment strategy, the “ETH Early Delivery Accumulator,” designed to capitalize on this expected rise.
