On July 3, 2025, Bitcoin rose above $109K, while Ethereum gained 6% due to institutional engagement and changes in U.S. policy.
Bitcoin Surpasses $109K Amid Institutional Influx
Bitcoin's rise above $109K comes amidst significant institutional inflows, particularly from BlackRock’s ETF, which outperformed many S&P 500 funds. This marks a significant institutional dominance in the crypto sector.
"ETF inflows, corporate treasury buying, and sovereign accumulation are now the dominant price drivers," stated Geoffrey Kendrick, Global Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered.
U.S. Policy Boosts Bitcoin and Ethereum Confidence
The rise in Bitcoin and Ethereum also reflects increased investor confidence, bolstered by favorable U.S. policies. This momentum is supported by executive orders favoring deregulation, enhancing trading volumes among both institutional and retail investors.
Sovereign Interests Fuel Crypto Market Changes
Previous Bitcoin surges were primarily ETF-driven, but the current rally includes a mix of institutional and sovereign influences. The integration of mainstream capital is replacing post-halving slump narratives seen in prior cycles. Experts note potential for sustained growth if institutional capital maintains momentum.
Current events in the cryptocurrency market indicate a significant shift in its dynamics, with a focus on institutional investments and public support, which may ensure long-term sustainability and growth.
