Bitcoin ETFs made a bold $250 million purchase of BTC within a single day, marking the largest acquisition in over a month. As the Federal Reserve prepares to announce potential rate cuts, all eyes are on crypto’s next move.
ETF Bitcoin Buying Spree Hits $250 Million
A big change has occurred: Bitcoin ETFs have bought a lot of Bitcoin—$250 million worth—in the last day.
Arkham Intelligence, a blockchain analytics service, reports that this is the greatest single-day acquisition by Bitcoin ETFs in more than a month. "Bitcoin ETFs are buying. The Bitcoin ETFs acquired $250 million of BTC yesterday - that’s the most in over a month," tweeted Arkham Intelligence.
The holdings of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which enable investors to have exposure to Bitcoin without actually owning the cryptocurrency, have been rising at a steady rate.
Surge in Bitcoin ETF Buys Raises Questions
According to Arkham Intelligence, Bitcoin ETFs acquired $250 million worth of BTC in a single day due to this rise. People are curious and speculating about the reasons for the increase, since this level of buying is the greatest in over a month.
The specific cause of the current surge in Bitcoin ETF buying is unclear, while U.Today reports that a number of variables could be at play.
Market Braces for Federal Reserve’s Rate Cut Decision
Market participants in cryptocurrencies are preparing for the effects of the Federal Reserve's meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday. Rate cuts, not seen since the start of the hiking cycle in March 2022, are widely anticipated at this meeting. In the event of a rate decrease this week, risk assets such as cryptocurrency might experience a dramatic shift.
After losing $1.2 billion, digital asset investment products saw a turnaround in their funding, with inflows reaching $436 million, according to the latest report from CoinShares.
Market anticipation for an expected 50-basis-point interest rate cut on September 18th, after remarks by former New York Federal Reserve President Bill Dudley, may explain the surge in inflows towards the week's end.
Bitcoin Inflows Surge After 10-Day Outflow Streak
After a 10-day outflow of $1.18 billion, Bitcoin saw $436 million in inflows, making it the main focus.
If the recent uptick in ETF purchases is just a fad or the start of a larger accumulation period that might push Bitcoin prices higher, the next several weeks will tell.
