This indicator has failed to break above the neutral 4% threshold for over 3 months, reflecting Bitcoin&#8217;s -24% year-to-date performance. Still, Bitcoin&#8217;s 4% daily spike caught short sellers off-guard, triggering $210 million in liquidations.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin price is supported by spot ETF inflows and Strategy acquisitions<\/h2>\n<p>Part of the bullish sentiment stemmed from the $86 million net inflows into US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on Friday. While positive, this inflow was not nearly enough to reverse the heavy $730 million in net outflows seen since June 5.
