Bitfinex analysts report bitcoin’s explosive 12.3% breakout from its January peak was fueled by aggressive bidding from short-term holders and massive institutional inflows. The rally marks a 65% rebound from April’s tariff-driven lows, reinforcing bitcoin’s role as a “macro-resilient, high-beta safe haven” that outperformed traditional assets like gold and equities amid global uncertainty.

With a $2.43 trillion market cap, bitcoin now ranks above silver and Amazon globally. Bitfinex attributes this milestone to “sovereign-grade allocators” validating bitcoin as a digitally native monetary asset. U.S. spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) were pivotal, absorbing $2.72 billion last week alone—peaking with back-to-back daily inflows exceeding $1 billion.

Blackrock’s IBIT ETF hit $80 billion in assets under management faster than any ETF in history. Simultaneously, grassroots accumulation accelerated. Wallets holding under 100 BTC accumulated roughly 19,300 BTC monthly—far outpacing post-halving monthly issuance of 13,400 BTC, reducing sell-side pressure.

“Bitcoinʼs strong relative performance during a period of geopolitical stress and fiscal recalibration supports the ‘digital gold’ thesis, but with a modern twist, Bitcoin behaves like a safe haven, just with higher beta,” Bitfinex noted.

The surge contrasts with hidden U.S. economic strains. Bitfinex highlights weakening labor markets, with continuing jobless claims hitting pandemic-era highs, and small businesses scaling back investments amid profit pressures.

In crypto developments, Nasdaq-listed Biosig secured $1.1 billion to tokenize commodities after merging with blockchain firm Streamex. Tether invested in analytics firm Crystal Intelligence to combat crypto crime, while South Korea moved to reclassify crypto firms as “venture companies,” granting them tax benefits and startup funding access.

Bitfinex concludes bitcoin’s ascent reflects a “fundamental repricing” driven by structural demand from institutional portfolios and macro frameworks.
