- Bitcoin hits all-time high of $125,000 before slight pullback
- Ethereum and BTC ETFs attract nearly $5B
- Market sentiment remains in “Greed” territory
The crypto market is taking a breather following a massive rally that added over $410 billion in value last week. Bitcoin ($ BTC ) soared to a new all-time high of $125,000 before dipping slightly to $123,971, marking a modest 0.8% drop. Ethereum ($ ETH ) followed a similar pattern, trading at $4,574 with a marginal 0.09% decline.
Despite this slight cooldown, investor sentiment remains strong. The Fear & Greed Index (FGI) still sits at 71, reflecting sustained optimism and placing the market squarely in the “Greed” zone.
ETF Inflows Boost Market Confidence
One of the biggest drivers of last week’s rally was the continued interest in crypto ETFs. Combined inflows into Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs reached nearly $5 billion, showing growing institutional confidence in digital assets.
These inflows are significant, as they not only support price growth but also add legitimacy to the crypto market in the eyes of mainstream investors. With ETFs offering a regulated and accessible entry point, more capital continues to pour into the ecosystem.
What Comes Next for Crypto?
The total market capitalization now stands at $4.49 trillion, reflecting the long-term strength of the sector. While $257 million in liquidations over the past 24 hours hints at short-term volatility, the broader trend remains bullish.
Analysts suggest the current dip may just be a healthy correction after rapid gains. Many traders are watching closely for signs of consolidation or the next leg up, especially if ETF inflows persist.
With Bitcoin near ATH levels and Ethereum holding steady, the market cooldown may be a short pause before the next rally.
