Landmark regulatory guidance, seven straight days of ETF inflows, and Australia's own licensing framework signal a market maturing well beyond its speculative origins.
Bitcoin decoupled from equities, ETF show sustained weekly inflows, whales accumulated quietly, and stablecoins hit records. Here is what the weekly close is telling us.
Bitcoin reclaimed US$70,000 (A$98,000), institutional ETF inflows hit US$1.56 billion for March, and the crypto market found its footing amid geopolitical uncertainty and tightening supply.
Bitcoin surged 7% overnight to US$73K, backed by heavy ETF inflows, a short squeeze, and rising odds of US regulatory clarity.
The total crypto market cap fell 1.87% to US$2.25T this week as geopolitical volatility and macro uncertainty weighed on sentiment, even as Bitcoin demonstrated resilience.
From a 50% drawdown to a sudden V-shaped recovery. Short sellers lost over US$500M in 24 hours as institutional buyers stepped back in, and altcoins led the rebound.
