Since the beginning of the new year, the Bitcoin market has experienced a strong rebound. Breaking through the long-term resistance zone around $87,000, BTC has been on a steady rise, with a 24-hour increase of over 4%, surpassing the $95,000 mark in a short period and even touching $94,400 at one point. During this rally, the total market capitalization of the entire crypto market increased by over $250 billion within a few days.



Not only Bitcoin, but the entire market is heating up. ETH has risen nearly 9%, mainstream coins generally grew by double digits, and Meme coins surged significantly. This is not just market volatility; several clear logical factors are supporting this movement.

**Year-end tax season pressure has been released.** The peak period of tax loss harvesting in Q4 last year has passed, removing a major factor that previously suppressed the market. A large number of pending rebound buy orders finally have the opportunity to enter.

**The flow of funds into spot ETFs has shifted.** Since October, the US spot Bitcoin ETF recorded the largest single-day inflow, which is a direct signal of increased market demand. The return of institutional funds usually indicates a larger market rally is underway.

**Macro expectations are quietly changing.** Against the backdrop of US debt reaching new highs, the market is betting that Federal Reserve policies will shift towards easing. Under this expectation, risk assets including BTC have gained a new upward channel.

**Technical support has also been established.** From the October high, Bitcoin has experienced approximately a 35% correction. From a statistical perspective, the technical conditions for a rebound are now mature.
BTC-4,19%
ETH-4,14%
MEME-4,3%

The 95,000 level has finally stabilized. That previous sell-off was really painful. Are institutions quietly coming back? The ETF data is right there, can't even pretend otherwise. Once the tax season is over, this is what happens. I knew there would be a rebound; I’ve been accumulating for a while. The Federal Reserve’s easing expectations are different now; risk assets are just riding this wave. The meme coin surge reminds me of last year's frenzy, but this time it feels a bit different. $250 billion flowing in so quickly—honestly, I’m a bit hesitant to chase the highs. A 35% correction and rebound... this math checks out, and the technicals are indeed mature. Now it’s just a matter of whether it’s really heading towards 100,000 or not—don’t want it to just dip back again.

Did the 95,000 break? Is this really the case, or are we about to experience another roller coaster... The tax season was this intense, are institutions really back?

Brothers, this rebound really can't hold anymore. Institutional funds flowing back in are causing a direct surge. That single-day inflow into the spot ETF is truly saying "We're coming." Anyway, I'm just waiting for the easing expectations to continue to ferment. BTC still has a chance.

Breaking the 87k resistance level and directly pushing to 95k, this momentum is a bit intense... Are institutions really bottoming out?

Damn, right after tax season, we're taking off. The institutional funds are really back. ETH up 9%—is that just the appetizer?

If I hadn't chickened out at 87, I would have at least doubled now... Watching other people's accounts feels like watching someone else's life, it's so frustrating.

After the tax season, institutions rush in en masse. I've seen this pattern too many times. The real test is whether they can hold steady at 94k.

Oh no, finally getting through the tax season. This rebound is really quite strong. Institutional funds are really entering this time, completely different from the previous bluff. ETH 9%? That data seems a bit conservative; the gains I've seen are already double digits. Wait, is the spot ETF inflow the largest? Is this about to trigger a new bull run? A 35% correction followed by a rebound—this pace... We'll have to see what the Federal Reserve does next.
