<p><em><strong>After the Current Ups &amp; Downs in BTC Price, Bitcoin ETFs Saw Huge Outflows. The Analysts at J.P Morgan Believe That Bitcoin is OverValued.</strong></em></p>
<p>Despite Bitcoin’s price facing pressure and currently trading at $64,051 with a market cap of $1.259 trillion, analyst Michael van de Poppe sees BlackRock’s consistent inflows into Spot Bitcoin ETFs as a positive sign of ongoing institutional buying activity, which suggests that the market cycle is far from over.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-outflows-in-bitcoin-etfs-strong"><strong>OutFlows in Bitcoin ETFs&nbsp;</strong></h2>
<p><a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2024/01/15/spot-bitcoin-etfs-would-push-btc-price-to-500k-crypto-trader/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin ETFs</a> saw a total outflow of over $888 million this week, with Spot Bitcoin ETFs experiencing a net outflow of $51.6 million on Friday, March 22. GBTC alone recorded a single-day outflow of $169 million. However, BlackRock’s ETF (IBIT) observed minimal net inflows, helping mitigate some negative impacts.</p>
<p>The persistent outflows from GBTC continue to impact the Bitcoin ETF market, with Thursday, March 21, seeing another substantial outflow of $359 million, summing up to $1.8 billion for the week. Additionally, Bitcoin ETF outflows accelerated, reaching $95 million on the same day.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-gbtc-s-single-day-outflow-strong"><strong>GBTC’s Single-Day Outflow</strong></h2>
<p>GBTC faced a significant single-day outflow of $386 million on Wednesday, March 20, while IBIT saw a considerable inflow of $49.28 million, bringing its total historical net inflow to $13.09 billion. However, concerns over central bank actions have led to a drying up of ETF inflows this week.</p>
<p>On Tuesday, March 19, Bitcoin ETFs saw outflows for multiple days, amounting to $326 million. It has caused a shift in the market sentiment. Institutional investors appeared to be cautious with the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decision scheduled for March 20.&nbsp;</p>
<p>As a result, there have been subdued inflows across most ETFs.GBTC’s losses were increased by a massive $444 million outflow on Tuesday, while BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF regained momentum on Monday, March 18, with $451.5 million inflows, contrasting with minimal inflows for other ETFs.</p>

<p>JP Morgan has warned that the recent slowdowns in spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) inflows cast doubt on the market’s optimistic prediction of year-end price hikes.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Expectations were optimistic for steady demand driven by bitcoin ETFs and the approaching Bitcoin halving event. However, these latest statistics indicate that the influx of funds into spot ETFs may not be as consistent as previously anticipated.</p>
<p>10 spot bitcoin ETFs that began trading in early January saw money flow out last week as Grayscale’s bitcoin trust (GBTC) continued to see significant outflows.&nbsp;</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-a-drop-coming-in-btc-price-jp-morgan-analysts-strong"><strong>A Drop Coming in BTC Price- JP Morgan Analysts</strong></h2>
<p>JPMorgan analysts have predicted a drop in Bitcoin’s price to $42,000 after the April halving. JPMorgan believes that the halving and Ethereum upgrade will not significantly impact the market as it has already factored them in. The bank’s CEO, Jamie Dimon, remains skeptical of cryptocurrencies and has no plans to invest in Bitcoin.</p>
<p>In an interview with CNBC, Jamie Dimon expressed his belief that cryptocurrency is a minor aspect of finance and requires too much attention. He compared crypto tokens to pet rocks and criticized the excessive hype around them. However, as always, Jamie has acknowledged the legitimacy of blockchain technology and Web 3.0.</p>
<p>He questioned why such illegal activities are allowed to take place and why banks are blamed while crypto remains unchecked. He also discussed the possibility of a wage-price spiral, which could be a concern.&nbsp;</p>
