<p>Yesterday’s inflation report from the U.S. sparked optimism across the market, leading to a significant rally in major cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin, the leading digital currency, experienced a 7.50% increase, reaching $66,350 and breaking through the $65,000 threshold.</p>
<p>Additionally, the release of milder-than-expected U.S. CPI figures prompted widespread short-covering, resulting in a sharp uptick in the cryptocurrency markets. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) data indicated a 3.4% increase, slightly down from the 3.7% figure published in March by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).</p>
<p>Now, the question arises: Is it a definitive trend reversal for Bitcoin or merely a temporary surge? Let’s assess all these carefully and consider all the other metrics.</p>

<p>Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) have recently seen a substantial influx, with investments nearing $303 million, equivalent to 4600 BTC.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Following a 7% increase in Bitcoin’s value after the release of U.S. inflation figures, Bitcoin ETF inflows reached a two-week peak. Fidelity’s FBTC led the charge with a $131 million investment, marking its most significant influx since March.</p>
<p>In addition, Bitwise’s BITB experienced an $86 million investment, while BlackRock’s IBIT did not record any new investments for three consecutive days. These developments suggest an emerging demand that could potentially elevate Bitcoin’s price beyond the $70,000 mark.</p>

<p>The softened inflation figures have relieved investors, as Bitcoin has shown resilience against further declines. Nonetheless, the upward path appears challenging, with the price persisting within a parallel channel pattern on the daily chart.</p> 
<p><a href="https://in.tradingview.com/chart/BTCUSD/esWbJAF6-Bitcoin-Price-Is-a-70K-Milestone-in-The-Loop-Amid-CPI-Data/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> </a> <a href="https://in.tradingview.com/u/Ritika_TCR/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> </a>&nbsp; <a href="https://in.tradingview.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> </a></p> 
<p>The recent price movements indicate that Bitcoin has bounced back from the channel’s lower edge and is now ascending toward the upper edge. Observing Bitcoin’s behavior upon reaching this upper limit will be intriguing.</p>
<p>Should Bitcoin break through the channel’s confines, it could confirm the onset of a bullish trend, potentially propelling the <a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2024/04/29/the-bitcoin-therapist-shared-cryptocurrency-investment-journey/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">cryptocurrency</a> to unprecedented highs. Conversely, if Bitcoin struggles to breach the upper edge, it could be a precursor to further corrections in the near future.</p>
<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Conclusion</strong></h4>
<p>Yesterday’s U.S. inflation report, showing a CPI increase of 3.4%, sparked market optimism and led to a rally in cryptocurrencies, with Bitcoin rising 7.50% to $66,350. This surge surpassed the psychological level of $65,000 level.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Moreover, Bitcoin ETFs also saw a major influx of nearly $303 million. Despite this, Bitcoin’s price movement within a parallel channel pattern suggests uncertainty. If Bitcoin breaks above the channel, it could signal a bullish trend towards new highs. However, failure to surpass the upper boundary might indicate impending corrections.</p>
