Bitcoin surged over 25% as $1.4B in ETF inflows signal rising institutional demand.
BTC decoupled from risk assets, emerging as a safe haven amid strong ETF-driven momentum.
Bitcoin [BTC] is riding a fresh wave of institutional capital, with U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs pulling in a staggering $1.4 billion over just three days.
Since the 7th of April, Bitcoin’s price has risen by over 25%, bringing $100,000 back into focus.
This surge indicates a potential shift in perception—Bitcoin is evolving beyond its role as a speculative asset and is increasingly being viewed as a safe-haven investment.
ETF flows as a firehose of institutional capital

Over three days, $1.4 billion has flooded in, marking the second time weekly inflows have topped $3 billion, a milestone last seen post-election in late 2024.

The charts show a stark reversal from the sluggish March flows: daily net inflows swinging sharply positive, and weekly fund flows hitting levels not seen since Bitcoin’s ascent to previous all-time highs.
If capital is the lifeblood of rallies, Bitcoin’s veins are now overflowing.
Bitcoin leaves risk assets behind
For the first time this year, Bitcoin is defying traditional patterns.
While stocks and other “risk-on” assets falter under macroeconomic pressure, BTC is surging ahead. This divergence highlights a fundamental shift in investor perception—Bitcoin is increasingly seen as a safe-haven asset.
Pro-crypto policies under President Trump and rising institutional accumulation suggest a deliberate rotation into BTC.
The narrative tying Bitcoin closely to tech stocks and speculative assets is unraveling, paving the way for a new chapter: Bitcoin as an emerging haven
Are institutions leading the BTC price?
Since the bottom on the 7th of April, Bitcoin has rocketed over 25%, surging from below $75K to touch $94K. What’s striking is the sequence: massive ETF inflows preceded price liftoffs, not the other way around.

The clean, near-vertical candles since mid-April back this up. With Bitcoin now consolidating just shy of $95,000, the case builds that institutional demand is no longer just reactive but proactive.
In short, this rally has different fingerprints, and $100,000 is flashing on the radar.
