$1.04 Billion Bitcoin Stun Crypto Exchanges, What's Happening?

$1.04 Billion Bitcoin Stun Crypto Exchanges, What's Happening?
Bitcoin experienced a net inflow of $1.04 billion to exchanges this week, reversing the three previous weeks of outflows. This suggests hesitancy in the market due to global political and economic uncertainties. Large inflows to exchanges typically indicate potential selling pressure, leading to speculation about a significant price shift for Bitcoin. Additionally, GameStop is reportedly considering investing in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin's price briefly surged after the announcement of strong US retail sales figures, but it fell to near $94,000 as investors reacted to economic headlines, including higher-than-expected CPI data. The Federal Reserve Chair, Jerome Powell, reiterated the central bank's commitment to lowering inflation but stated that they were not rushing to decrease interest rates. At the time of writing, Bitcoin's price was down 0.21% and remained in a tight trading range, anticipating its next major move.
