Bitcoin’s surge to new all-time highs signals its entry into the euphoria zone, accompanied by substantial capital inflows driven by the success of spot Bitcoin ETFs. 
<a href="https://crypto.news/tag/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bitcoin</a> has finally entered the fourth cycle in its history as its price keeps growing beyond the $70,000 mark, Glassnode analysts <a href="https://insights.glassnode.com/the-week-onchain-week-11-2024/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>, adding that the interest surrounding the cryptocurrency appears to be transitioning it into the euphoria zone.

According to on-chain data analysis, the Bitcoin Realized Cap, a measure of the total wealth stored in BTC on-chain, has surged to a new high of $504 billion, experiencing a $40 billion increase in capital inflows since Mar. 1 alone.

 “From an on-chain data perspective, this moment has historically triggered a distinct shift in investor behaviour patterns, particularly in the relative balance between HODLers and the Speculator cohorts.”

The Realized Cap is currently increasing at a rate of $54 billion per month, analysts say, adding that Bitcoin is now approaching levels last seen during the early 2021 bull run. This underscores the significant capital inflows into Bitcoin, partly fueled by the success and demand for new spot exchange-traded funds (<a href="https://crypto.news/tag/bitcoin-etf/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ETFs</a>), which were <a href="https://crypto.news/sec-approves-spot-bitcoin-etf-on-accelerated-basis/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">approved</a> by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission earlier in January. 
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"> 
 “Across numerous metrics, the current cycle is surprisingly and eerily similar to previous all-time high breaks, with the transfer of wealth from HODLers to new investors and speculators well under way.”

However, Glassnode noted that this week, a significant level of realized profit has been locked in through on-chain spending, surpassing “statistically high levels,” with analysts highlighting parallels to the onset of previous euphoric phases, such as those seen in the 2017 and 2021 bull markets.
