Bitcoin traded at $63,006, down 1.4% on the day, as it nears a power law support line Fidelity Digital Assets has monitored since 2015. The level sits near $62,762 based on the firm's logarithmic regression model. Meanwhile, U.S.-listed spot bitcoin ETFs recorded $197 million in net inflows, ending an eight-week streak of outflows.
The confluence of a decade-tested mathematical support and returning ETF demand suggests institutional participants may be using the geopolitical dip to accumulate. Fidelity's power law framework has historically marked zones where long-term holders step in, and the ETF flow reversal adds a measurable demand signal.
Ether slipped 1.1% to $1,781 with $7.9 billion in volume, while XRP and Solana fell 1.5% and 0.6% respectively. Funding rates remain slightly positive across BTC and ETH perpetuals, and open interest holds near $1.96 billion for bitcoin, indicating leveraged positioning has not flushed out.
Watch for a daily close above $63,500 to confirm the support hold, and monitor ETF flow data for a second consecutive week of inflows. The Fear & Greed index at 28 signals extreme fear, which has historically preceded short-term bounces when combined with structural support.
A decade-old quantitative support line meeting fresh institutional capital flow is a rare alignment , the tape will reveal whether it holds or breaks.
