What’s Happening with BTC Price?
Market participants attribute the latest surge in inflows to U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent statement. Trump announced that the U.S. and Iran are involved in negotiation talks amid the US-Israel-Iran conflict. It helped ease risk sentiment, and the BTC price also recovered.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin price hovered around $71,198.86, up by 0.42% on Tuesday. It appears to be reinforcing investor confidence and boosting demand for Bitcoin ETFs. Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe spotlighted a strengthening trend in Bitcoin price.
He said, “Bitcoin constantly prints higher lows since the crash early in February.” He described this as a positive technical signal. Poppe wrote, “It’s a great sign and it shows that we’re about to witness more strength.”
However, Poppe cautioned that risks remain in the current market structure. “It doesn’t say that we’re out of the woods entirely, as those higher lows trigger a lot of liquidity if the markets get there,” he said.
Despite this, van de Poppe maintained a bullish outlook on price action. He noted, “However, overall, as long as we hold these levels, I think that we’re able to reach $77–80K.”
