On Tuesday, US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded significant inflows, totaling a remarkable $886.6 million.
This influx marks the second-best day for joint net inflows into US spot Bitcoin ETFs. With these elements at play, crypto analysts and community members consider a bullish market outlook for Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Surges to $71,200
Leading the pack, the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) saw an inflow of $378.7 million. Not far behind, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) added $274.4 million. Additionally, the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) reported strong gains, securing $138.7 million in net inflows.
On another front, the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) also experienced a significant inflow day, bringing in $28.2 million. This marked one of the few inflow days since it transformed from a closed-end fund to a spot ETF earlier this year.
Contrastingly, Bitcoin ETFs managed by Invesco Galaxy, Franklin Templeton, WisdomTree, and Hashdex showed no new inflows on June 4, as per data from Farside Investors.

Despite this, the cryptocurrency community is abuzz with optimism. Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas highlighted the substantial inflows, suggesting a bullish wave.
“The third wave is turning into tidal wave,” Balchunas said.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s price soared to $71,200 in early Wednesday market hours, currently trading at $71,166.
“At the moment we’re still in familiar territory hovering near the all time highs. It’s gonna take a lot of pressure to break through $74,000, but once it does you can bet a lot of people will take notice. At this point I would say that most financial advisors are already familiar with Bitcoin and its potential to bring outsized returns to a well balanced portfolio. The only thing they need to decide is what percentage of their portfolio allocation makes sense for their specific needs,” Mati Greenspan, Quantum Economics Founder & CEO, told BeInCrypto.
Moreover, the Hash Ribbons indicator from Capriole Investments has recently signaled a miner capitulation period. Miner capitulation occurs when Bitcoin’s hash rate’s 30-day moving average (DMA) drops below the 60 DMA, typically signaling potential long-term buying opportunities.
Charles Edwards, the founder of Capriole Investments, emphasized the indicator’s significance.
“Everytime we get a Hash Ribbon buy, it get ridiculed. But the last occurred was when Bitcoin was in the $20,000 range. Time to pay attention,” Edwards said.

Miners are navigating the challenges post-Bitcoin halving — where block rewards are reduced, diminishing profitability for less efficient mining operations.
Miner capitulations often coincide with broader market weaknesses and volatility. However, they also align with significant market recoveries and are considered strategic investment points. Hash Ribbons’ reliability is supported by its historical performance, suggesting it remains a robust metric for predicting Bitcoin’s long-term value prospects.
