Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency market have staged<a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/bitcoin-btc-to-100k-by-2025-here-are-3-reasons-traders-believe-its-possible/"> a strong recovery,</a> with Bitcoin’s price surging 4% today, surpassing the $61,000 mark. The recent rise can be linked to the stablecoin inflows in the past week and the growing institutional demand for digital assets. 
Bitcoin traders closely monitor the impact of a substantial $2.5 billion in stablecoin inflows, which have injected fresh liquidity into the market. As reported by 10X Research, stablecoin leaders Tether (USDT) and Circle (USDC) have been issuing new tokens, which may indicate institutional money coming into the market.

This increase in stablecoin issuance has happened at the same time as the price increase of Bitcoin, pointing at a clear link between the two. Analysts suggest that the rise in the stablecoin supply has also contributed to the short-covering process in the Bitcoin market, pushing prices up.&nbsp; 
<h3 id="strong-institutional-buying-pressure-rises-with-spot-bitcoin-etfs-strong">Institutional Buying Pressure Rises with Spot Bitcoin ETFs</h3> 
The increase in stablecoin inflows is not the only factor&nbsp;boosting Bitcoin’s current performance. There has also been a rise in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/bitcoin-community-optimistic-as-btc-price-nears-key-resistance-2/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">institutional buying pressure</a> as more spot Bitcoin ETFs are&nbsp;launched. This can be attributed to the increasing attention from leading financial institutions in the digital asset space.&nbsp; 
The banking giant Goldman Sachs revealed its involvement in Bitcoin ETF trading for the second quarter, with a massive investment of $418 million in such products. This decision by Goldman Sachs just proves that institutional investors are now trusting Bitcoin, which boosts the price of Bitcoin.&nbsp; 
Also, on-chain <a href="https://twitter.com/spotonchain/status/1823538940697354516">data</a> shows that Tether has printed more than $1 billion USDT in the last 24 hours, and these tokens have been deposited into popular CEXs, including Binance, Coinbase, and Kraken. This activity shows how much liquidity is coming into the market, which has increased Bitcoin prices and the entire crypto market.&nbsp;

This has been particularly evident with the recent jump in the value of Bitcoin, which has led to a similar increase in the value of other cryptocurrencies. Ethereum, for instance, has been leading the way in terms of gains in the altcoin market, which has overall been positive. 
In the past week alone, Bitcoin has risen by 6% <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/bitcoin-community-optimistic-as-btc-price-nears-key-resistance-2/">on the weekly chart</a>, illustrating the positive sentiment in the market.&nbsp; 
The growth in stablecoin inflows and the involvement of institutional investors have contributed to the crypto market’s overall growth. However, the market’s further development will most probably depend on the forthcoming macroeconomic indicators, particularly the U.S. CPI inflation rate data.&nbsp; 
This increase in stablecoin inflows is not the first time either. The same trend was seen during Bitcoin’s bull run to its record high in 2021. At that time, the 30-day moving average of USDT and USDC exchange inflows was at $72 billion in daily deposits. This surge was a clear indication of the strong demand for Bitcoin, which in turn propelled the price of Bitcoin to new levels.&nbsp;
