Bitcoin climbed back above $84,000 after peaking near $85,000 over the weekend, supported by continued inflows into U.S. spot cryptocurrency ETFs, which totaled $64.8 million on Monday despite an 80% drop from Friday’s $330.8 million. Bitcoin ETFs extended their positive streak to eight days, accumulating around $3 billion in that period. However, rising U.S. Treasury bond yields hitting 19-year highs and escalating U.S.-Iran tensions have increased market caution, reducing leverage in Bitcoin futures to a 2024 low. These factors suggest investors remain wary amid potential Federal Reserve rate hikes and geopolitical risks, even as institutional adoption grows with firms like Citigroup expanding blockchain services internationally.
