A key level to monitor for potential bitcoin support is the U.S. ETF cost basis. This metric represents the average entry price of bitcoin held by spot ETFs and is calculated by combining daily ETF inflows with bitcoin’s price at the time of each deposit to form a running average.

The aggregate cost basis for U.S. bitcoin ETFs currently sits near $83,000, according to Glassnode data, a level that bitcoin has rebounded from during the previous lows on Nov. 21 and Dec. 1.

Among BTC ETFs, Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) suffered $230.1 million in redemptions. Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) and ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) posted notable outflows of $44.3 million and $34.3 million, respectively.

Bitcoin (BTC) Rebounds Today: “This Level Must Be Broken for Major October Rally,” Says Analysis Firm

The post Bitcoin (BTC) Rebounds Today: “This Level Must Be Broken for Major October Rally,” Says Analysis Firm appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. QCP Capital announced that cryptocurrency markets are showing signs of recovery after last week’s selling pressure, paving the way for an “October rally.” The company’s report noted that Bitcoin (BTC) rose to $112,000 and Ethereum (ETH) to $4,100. Spot prices remained stable over the weekend, despite significant ETF outflows last Friday, suggesting that selling pressure was absorbed more strongly than expected. QCP Capital argued that quarter-end liquidations were the main driver of these outflows and that this week’s ETF flows will determine the direction of institutional demand. The report revealed that despite a challenging month, Bitcoin closed September with a gain of more than 3%. Analysts noted that the market is preparing for the seasonal rally known as “Uptober,” and that it is critical for BTC to surpass the $115,000 level to confirm the uptrend. Cautious optimism is prevailing in the options market. According to QCP Capital, investor confidence is slowly returning, bearish sentiment is diminishing, and open interest in both Bitcoin and Ethereum is beginning to stabilize. This suggests that a potential October rally is starting to be factored in among investors, according to the analyst firm. *This is not investment advice.
