<p><strong>Blockstream </strong>CEO <strong>Adam Back </strong>believes <strong>Bitcoin </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) is entering a fresh bull market, citing strong inflows from ETFs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43790066/institutions-can-earn-bitcoin-yield-with-lstbtc-while-retaining-custodian-security">and institutional investors.</a></p>
<p><strong>What Happened: </strong>"We're certainly in the early stages of a bull market," Back <a href="https://x.com/Cointelegraph/status/1892255600119001153">told</a> CNBC on Wednesday, emphasizing the growing demand for Bitcoin among financial institutions.</p>
<p>Back highlighted that Bitcoin ETFs are currently absorbing twice the daily mined supply, with firms like MicroStrategy further adding to the buying pressure. </p>
<p>"Really, there's a lot of inflow," he said, adding that despite short-term profit-taking by midterm investors, structural demand remains robust.</p>
<p>Bitcoin is currently trading at $96,000, gaining 2% for the day, while <strong>Ethereum </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) is up 3% at $2,705.</p>
<p>Other major cryptocurrencies are also rallying, with <strong>BNB </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/bnb/usd">BNB</a>) up 2.5%, <strong>Solana </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) up 3.5% to $170.5, and <strong>Litecoin </strong>(CRYPTO: LITE) surging 8%. </p>
<p>Meme coins <strong>Shiba Inu</strong> (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>)<strong> and Dogecoin </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) are trading flat.</p>

<p><strong>Why It Matters: </strong>Back noted that institutional adoption is accelerating, with ETF 13F filings revealing that 30% of Bitcoin ETF buyers are institutions.</p>
<p>He expects pension and mutual funds to increase their allocations in the coming cycle. "There's a lot of room for capital to come in," he said.</p>
<p>Additionally, Back suggested Bitcoin could soon compete with gold ETFs as capital reallocates from traditional safe-haven assets. </p>
<p>He also pointed to sovereign treasuries as a potential catalyst, stating that if one major nation adds Bitcoin to reserves, "others will feel forced to follow suit."</p>
<p>With institutional capital and treasury investments increasing, the market could be poised for further gains, reinforcing Back's view that Bitcoin remains in the early innings of a sustained rally.</p>

<h3>About Roblox</h3>
<p>Roblox operates an online video game platform with 80 million daily active users that lets young gamers create, develop, and monetize games (or "experiences") for other players. The firm offers its developers a hybrid of a game engine, publishing platform, online hosting and services, marketplace with payment processing, and social network. The platform is a closed garden that Roblox controls, earning $3.5 billion in bookings in 2023 through in-game purchases and advertising while benefiting from outsourced game development. Unlike traditional video game publishers, Roblox is more focused on the creation of new tools and monetization techniques for its developers than creating new games or franchises.</p>

Roblox's Options: A Look at What the Big Money is Thinking

<p>Shares of <strong>Alibaba Group Holding Limited </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) are off slightly ahead of tomorrow's report. The company will release its earnings tomorrow and is scheduled to have a conference call at 7:30 AM EST to discuss the results.</p>
<p>Even if the earnings are good, there is a chance that the stock heads lower. This is why it is our <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-of-the-day">Stock of the Day</a>.</p>
<p>BABA has rallied by about 60% in just a few weeks. Analysts attribute this move to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/02/43806017/alibabas-q4-shakeup-many-asian-funds-exit-while-us-based-funds-like-ubs-oconnor-marathon-assetmark-cantor-fitzgerald-double-down">optimism around AI advancement.</a></p>
<p>This could set the stage for what traders call a ‘crowded trade'. This would be bearish for the stock.</p>
<p>It means that because investors think the earnings will be good, the vast majority purchase shares ahead of the release. This makes the market effectively run out of buyers.</p>
<p>Stocks don't move higher unless traders and investors who wish to buy push the price up. A market with no buyers can't go up.</p>
<p><strong>Read Also:</strong> <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/02/43816112/hedge-fund-shake-up-tiger-appaloosa-soros-outperform-buffett-icahn-ackman">Hedge Fund Shake-Up: Tiger, Appaloosa, Soros Outperform Buffett, Icahn, Ackman</a></p>
<p>If the earnings are good and the stock doesn't rally, some will become concerned and may decide to sell.&nbsp; But they will have a hard time finding buyers for their shares. They may need to push the price lower.</p>
<p>Others will see this and may decide to do the same. It could result in a snowball effect that results in a selloff even if the numbers beat expectations.</p>
<p>Technically, as you can see on the chart below, Alibaba is also extremely overbought.</p>
<p><figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="545" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/19141022/119-1024x545.png" alt="" class="wp-image-789703" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/19141022/119-1024x545.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/19141022/119-300x160.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/19141022/119-768x409.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/19141022/119.png 1518w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure></p>
<p>This means the stock is trading above what would be its typical or normal range. Some technical traders will be anticipating a reversion to the mean or move lower. They may enter the market as sellers and this could put downward pressure on the stock.</p>
<p>The shares are also testing resistance around $124.00. The last three times they hit this level a selloff followed.</p>
<p>Resistance is a price level where there is a large amount of sell interest. Stocks can sell off of resistance if some of the people who created the resistance become willing to accept lower prices and start to undercut each other.</p>
<p>Excessive optimism about the earnings release, being overbought, and being at resistance means BABA may be about to head lower. Even if the earnings are good.</p>
