The total crypto market stabilized around $2.5 trillion after Bitcoin (BTC) price rebounded from the support level of around $64k in the past 24 hours. The demand for digital assets grew, fueled by institutional investors seeking to hedge against global economic uncertainties. Furthermore, it is safe to say that digital assets offer better long-term insurance than traditional investment products.

Bitcoin price has been trapped in a consolidation mode in the past four months. The flagship coin has been oscillating between $60k and $71k since March despite the notable cash inflows through the US spot BTC ETFs.
According to veteran trader Peter Brandt, Bitcoin prices have been forming lower highs and lower lows, an established characteristic of a falling trend.

In the past nine days alone, US spot Bitcoin ETFs have registered more than $2 billion in cash inflows, thus canceling the sales by Germany’s government.

Furthermore, Bitcoin’s dominance in the recent past signaled an inevitable reversal backed by the bearish divergence of the weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI).
Already, the US SEC approved two spot Ether ETFs – Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust and ProShares Ethereum ETF – to begin trading on NYSE Arca by next week.
The onset of spot Ether ETFs trading in the United States will trigger a major landslide win for the entire altcoin industry. Moreover, Ethereum is a major liquidity provider for the entire altcoin industry.
