Bitcoin’s market structure is showing a split signal: institutional demand through ETFs is accelerating, while short-term holders are still selling into exchanges at a loss. That divergence is helping explain why BTC has held up near the $70,000 area even as retail stress remains visible in on-chain data. In his latest Morning Brief, Axel Adler Jr. said US spot Bitcoin ETFs absorbed 62,986 BTC over the past 30 days, equal to $11.3 billion in net inflows between February 24 and March 25.

The once-touted “Ethereum killer” is in extreme pain, wallowing in the depths of a bear market, but a bottom may be finally forming, say analysts. Cardano is showing classic bottom indicators with active wallets down 43% on their investments over the past year, and ADA dropping over 70% since September, said Santiment on Tuesday.

Over the last week, both Bitcoin and gold failed the safe-haven test. Bitcoin is still trading more like a risk asset than “digital gold,” while gold has also failed to behave like a clean geopolitical hedge as higher yields and inflation fears overrode the usual flight-to-safety bid.To start the week, Bitcoin rebounded to about $70,508 after falling as low as $67,436 earlier in the day, while gold was still trying to recover from a far steeper break, and the US 10-year Treasury yield remained above its Friday close after briefly pushing to a new high.That sequence changed the usual reading…
