Bitcoin (BTC) extended its gains from Tuesday amid tariff developments, boosting risk sentiment. Gold dove 2.75% on Monday after US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent signaled a de-escalation in the US-China trade war. President Trump also hinted at lower tariffs. The Nasdaq Composite Index rose 2.50% in response.
The US administration’s U-turn on China could be crucial for BTC’s price trajectory. BTC plunged from a January 2024 record high of $109,312 to a March 7 low of $74,394 on US tariffs and the escalation in the US-China trade war. A US-China trade deal could trigger a BTC rebound.
US BTC-Spot ETF Inflows Reflect Bullish Sentiment
The de-escalation in the US-China trade war has also boosted demand for US BTC-spot ETFs. On April 22, US BTC-spot ETF issuers recorded $912.7 million in total net inflows, the highest since $975.6 million of inflows on January 17. Inflows continued on April 23, contributing to Wednesday’s upswing. According to Farside Investors:
Eric Balchunas commented on the recent surge in BTC-spot ETF inflows, stating:
The spot bitcoin ETFs went Pac-Man mode yesterday, +$936m, $1.2b for week. Also notable is 10 of 11 of the originals all took in cash too. Good sign to see flow depth vs say IBIT doing 90% of the lifting. Price up $93.5k. Pretty strong all things considered IMO.
