Market Forecast:
This week, stablecoins continued to be issued, while the U.S. Bitcoin spot ETF experienced net outflows, breaking a trend of several weeks of net inflows, and the Ethereum spot ETF saw net inflows. After reaching a new high last week, profit-taking addresses began to take profits, resulting in a 7-day decline of 3.73%. The RSI index is at 30.63, indicating weakness, and the altcoin season index is at 18. This week, the U.S. reported a year-on-year core PCE price index for April of 2.5%, in line with expectations. The fear and greed index has returned to neutral.
The probability of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates by 25 basis points in June is only 2.2%. The current uncertainty regarding tariffs still has a significant impact on the market. Generally, after Bitcoin breaks a new high, the price tends to pull back, which is normal. It is expected that Bitcoin will fluctuate around $95,000 to $105,000 in the coming week, with a focus on ETF inflow conditions and the latest tariff policies from the Trump administration.
