Top Reasons Why Crypto Surged Today
High Demand from Whale Institutional Investors
The demand for crypto assets has significantly increased in the past few days amid the ongoing United States government shutdown. For instance, a weekly report from CoinShares shows crypto investment products recorded the highest weekly cash inflow of about $5.95 billion.
Bitcoin registered a weekly cash inflow of about $3.55 billion, Solana reported a record cash inflow of about $706.5 million, while Ether recorded $1.48 billion. According to on-chain data analysis from Santiment, whale investors with a MNT account balance of between 100 and 1000 purchased over 60k BTC during the past week, thus currently holding 5.11 million.
October Bullish Sentiment
Historically, the crypto market has performed exceptionally well during the fourth quarter, especially in October. With Bitcoin already following Gold price action, Wall Street analysts have predicted a parabolic rally for the crypto market in the coming months fueled by institutional investors and clear regulatory clarity.
The ‘Uptober’ bullish sentiment is bolstered by the notable spot crypto ETF application in the United States. With the recent approval of generic listing standards, ETF experts have predicted that dozens of crypto ETFs will be approved soon.
Technical Tailwinds
From a technical analysis outlook, the crypto market – led by Bitcoin, Ethereum, and BNB – has already broken out of a multi-week choppy consolidation.
