Nearly $1B Entered Bitcoin ETFs. So Why Is $BTC Still Below $80K? One thing on my radar right now is the disconnect between institutional demand and Bitcoin's price. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted around $924M in net inflows last week. That is a strong amount of capital. But $BTC is still struggling around the $78K area. So the question is simple: Why hasn't Bitcoin broken $80K yet? My radar: 🟠 $BTC — strong ETF demand, but resistance at $80K 🔵 $ETH — watching relative strength 🟣 $SOL — sensitive to liquidity conditions 🟢 $XRP — institutional demand remains important The ETF data tells us institutions are still interested in Bitcoin. BlackRock's IBIT alone accounted for roughly $938M of the weekly inflows. But price is telling us something different. $BTC pushed toward $81K and failed to hold the breakout. Then price returned toward $77K before recovering. That creates an important battle between buyers and sellers. On one side, institutional capital is still entering. On the other, macro conditions are becoming less supportive. Fed rate expectations have increased. Treasury yields are rising. Oil is above $90. And geopolitical uncertainty is adding more pressure to risk assets. So strong ETF inflows are not automatically enough to trigger a breakout. For $BTC, the levels are clear. $77K is the support I am watching. $80K is the immediate resistance. $81K–$81.5K is the breakout zone. If Bitcoin can reclaim $80K with strong spot volume, the recent rejection could turn into a consolidation before another attempt higher. But if $77K breaks while yields continue rising, institutional demand may need more time to absorb the selling pressure. This is also where $ETH becomes interesting. If Ethereum continues showing relative strength while $BTC remains below $80K, it could suggest capital is rotating within crypto rather than leaving the market. $SOL and $XRP are worth watching for the same reason. #LaborMarketTestsWalsh #BTCGoldCorrelation #BroadcomDellAIResults
