Bitcoin Rebounds, Outpacing Gold and Nasdaq
Bitcoin once again stepped up—outpacing both gold and the Nasdaq, and reminding the world why it’s more than just digital money. Regarding the market price, Crypto News Flash (CNF) hinted that, driven by ETF inflows, whale accumulation, and macroeconomic shifts, BTC could hit even higher targets by year-end.
According to recent reports, U.S. President Donald Trump branded the day “Liberation Day,” unveiling a wave of reciprocal tariffs. While the Nasdaq dipped 0.2% and the U.S. Dollar Index fell 4%, Bitcoin rebounded sharply, reflecting renewed investor faith in decentralized assets during policy instability. As reported by Bloomberg, it was stated:
In April, investors have poured about $2.9 billion into U.S.-listed Bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds, marking a sharp reversal from March and February, when the funds saw net outflows of $811 million and $3.6 billion, respectively.
Bitcoin’s Changing Image
Bitcoin’s climb wasn’t just about performance—it was about public perception. Initially, it dropped alongside traditional risk assets but quickly diverged. Some analysts believe that rising Treasury yields, doubts over U.S. fiscal discipline, and political tension around the Federal Reserve pushed investors toward alternative safe havens—including Bitcoin. David Lawant of FalconX previously stated:
Bitcoin showed an unusually low beta during recent volatility. It is worth noting that this could signal a maturing market. Despite still having a 0.6 correlation with equities, BTC’s calm during chaos is drawing attention. On the other hand, Geoff Kendrick of Standard Chartered echoed that sentiment, saying Bitcoin is now seen as a legitimate hedge—not just against inflation, but systemic risk itself. And while gold still plays its traditional role, Bitcoin’s borderless, decentralized nature makes it a potentially stronger defense tool in today’s unpredictable environment.
Massive Inflows Signal Growing Confidence and BTC Price Check Outlook
The numbers back the narrative: U.S.-listed Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a dramatic turnaround in April, attracting $2.9 billion in fresh capital—following sharp outflows earlier in Q1. This trend may represent a “strategic reallocation” as institutional investors reevaluate where to place long-term bets. As of today, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $94,761, despite a weak weekly surge of just 0.65%, according to CoinMarketCap. This resilience, even as broader tech stocks wobble, reinforces Bitcoin’s role as a next-gen safe haven. Market confidence in decentralized finance continues to grow. See BTC price chart below.
