📈 Market Snapshot – Mixed Signals Everywhere

  • Bitcoin (BTC): $96,144 (-2.08%) ⬇️

📌 BTC is testing $96K. If we lose this level, expect more blood before a bounce. If we reclaim $97K, the bears just got baited.

🏦 Institutional Flows & ETF Data – The Smart Money is Moving

📢 Bitcoin ETF Inflows – Institutions Are Still Stacking
🔹 Bitcoin ETF inflows surged 175% YoY, hitting $4.4 billion in new money between Jan 13 - Feb 5.
🔹 Ethereum-based ETFs saw $393 million in net inflows in February, outperforming Bitcoin for the month.
🔹 CME Bitcoin futures open interest is at its highest level since December—big players are loading up.

🔍 The Edge? Institutions aren’t scared of this dip. They are playing the long game, absorbing every weak hand panic sale.

📌 Translation? If BTC doesn’t reclaim $97K soon, expect a liquidity grab before the next leg.

🐋 Whale Moves – Who’s Accumulating & Who’s Dumping?

🔹 A Bitcoin whale withdrew 3,200 BTC (~$315M) from Coinbase to cold storage—Long-term bullish move.
🔹 Ethereum whales are stacking - $150M in net exchange outflows in 48 hours.
🔹 DEX activity surging - whales are moving away from CEX traps.

📌 If smart money is accumulating, don’t get shaken out.
