Bitcoin failed to surge past the $72k resistance level on Tuesday despite net inflows into spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in recent days. Market analyst Skew pointed out that spot selling activity on crypto exchanges Binance and Coinbase and short positions on derivatives marketplaces are halting BTC’s price from surging higher.
Central banks have started easing monetary policies thanks to positive inflation data in recent weeks. The European Central Bank and the Danish Central Bank both cut benchmark rates by 25 basis on Thursday while the Bank of Canada lowered interest rates earlier this week.
The US Federal Reserve has maintained its interest rate in recent months and experts believe any monetary easing could be in 2025. These macroeconomic indications could lead to BTC surging higher in short to medium term.
