Bitcoin sellers put a cap on $112,000, but technical, onchain data and the end of October US macroeconomic calendar suggest that the price compression will trigger a violent expansion. Key points: ETF inflows and spot accumulation by retail and institutional investors highlight the belief that Bitcoin trades at a discount.

Early BTC whales shift to ETFs, giving up keys for TradFi perks, as BlackRock conversions rise and onchain self-custody breaks a 15-year uptrend. Bitcoin’s (BTC) long-time whales, once the fiercest champions of self-custody, may be losing some of their grip on the market as more migrate toward the comforts of traditional finance. Earlier this week, a BlackRock executive revealed that several of Bitcoin’s earliest holders are quietly swapping portions of their spot positions for exchange-traded funds (ETFs), gaining access to broader wealth management tools in the process. While ETFs and spot Bitcoin have traditionally served different audiences, onchain data suggests the rise of spot ETFs may be coming at the expense of self-custody. According to analyst Willy Woo, the amount of self-custodied Bitcoin recently broke a 15-year uptrend, just as ETF adoption accelerated. In this week’s Crypto Biz, we look at Bitcoin whales’ turn toward TradFi, Ripple’s latest public market play, Galaxy Digital’s standout Q3 earn...

In an interview with Cointelegraph, Galaxy Digital’s head of research explains why Bitcoin is at a pivotal moment, and what could define its next downturn. Bitcoin’s bull market is holding strong, but a slip under $100,000 could spell trouble, Galaxy Digital’s head of research Alex Thorn told Cointelegraph. “I think the bull market is structurally intact, but it’s at risk,” Thorn said, noting that the market is at a “pivot point” where sentiment could shift quickly. “If you were to lose 100K now, I think it would create a lot of anxiety that could put that structural bull market in jeopardy.” Despite the massive Oct. 10 liquidation, he insists that the pullback was not driven by Bitcoin’s fundamentals. “Nothing about Bitcoin’s drop… has been fundamental about Bitcoin,” he said. “It’s really trading like a macro asset.” Read more
