Bitcoin’s price hasn’t reacted as expected after the approval of spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). Despite predictions of either surging to new highs or dropping to $30,000, Bitcoin is holding around $42,000. The influence of these ETFs is seen in increased flows into Coinbase, a major trading platform. 
When you look at how spot BTC ETFs affect the market, you can see an interesting interaction. Since the ETFs went live, there has been a noticeable rise in the amount of money going into Coinbase, a big spot market. According to an anonymous analyst, most spot Bitcoin ETFs that have been <a href="https://twitter.com/CL207/status/1747966068264509491">filed </a>with the US SEC use Coinbase as a custodian. This makes it a key tool for asset managers to buy and sell Bitcoin. But, even though there are more trades on Coinbase, Bitcoin’s price has been moving in a straight line. 
But the concerning indicator is the Coinbase Premium Gap, which reflects the price difference on Coinbase compared to other spot venues. Plus, the gap is signaling strong selling pressure and has historically hinted at potential significant downturns for Bitcoin. Analysts are <a href="https://twitter.com/JA_Maartun/status/1747968764065255474">advising </a>patience and a watchful stance, stressing the need to monitor the Coinbase Premium Gap for potential signs of a dip in support levels.

Looking at the other side the Reuters <a href="https://www.reuters.com/technology/spot-bitcoin-etfs-draw-nearly-2-billion-first-three-days-trading-2024-01-18/?taid=65a91af87279e300011794ff">reports </a>indicate that spot Bitcoin ETFs fetched nearly $2 billion in their first days of trading. Whereas BlackRock and Fidelity have led these capital inflows, questions have been raised about the accuracy of these numbers, with conflicting reports on the actual inflows. Despite the positive sentiment around spot Bitcoin ETFs, people are concerned about the ballpark figure of capital inflows, with conflicting reports suggesting figures of around $800 million in the first three days after the ETFs’ launch. The discrepancy raises doubts about the accuracy of reported numbers and emphasizes the need for a more nuanced understanding of the evolving market dynamics post-ETF approval. 
Such complex dynamics encircling ETFs, Coinbase flows, and Bitcoin’s price create an uncertain environment, prompting caution and a vigilant approach among investors.
