Key Highlights Bitcoin is trading near $61,661, holding above the key $60,000 level. Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $221.7 million in net inflows, ending a 10-day outflow streak. Total cumulative ETF
Key Highlights
Bitcoin is providing two reinforcing signals today — one from institutional ETF flows, and one from on-chain wallet behaviour — that together describe a market where the selling pressure that has defined the past several weeks appears to be genuinely exhausting itself.
Bitcoin is currently trading at $61,660.97, up +2.14% in the last 24 hours and +3.32% over the past 7 days. The token’s market capitalization stands at approximately $1.23 trillion.

The most immediate and market-significant development today is the reversal in Bitcoin spot ETF daily flows.
On July 2, 2026, Bitcoin ETFs recorded a +$221.72 million daily net inflow — ending a streak of 10 consecutive days of net outflows that had been one of the more persistent institutional selling periods of the current cycle.

Why the streak-ending matters:
Ten consecutive days of outflows represents a sustained, directional institutional decision to reduce Bitcoin ETF exposure — not random day-to-day noise but an extended period of consistent net selling from the institutional ETF wrapper. A $221.72 million single-day inflow reversing that streak is therefore a meaningful directional signal — suggesting that the cohort of institutional participants using Bitcoin ETFs has reached the point where buying is resuming rather than continuing to sell.
The cumulative context: Despite the 10-day outflow streak, cumulative net inflows remain at $51.08 billion — confirming that the long-term institutional demand thesis has not reversed. The recent streak was a correction within a structurally positive institutional adoption trend, not a fundamental shift in direction.

While the ETF data provides the institutional flow picture, on-chain wallet cohort data from @alicharts provides the behavioural confirmation from across the full market participant spectrum.
Over the past 30 days — following months of net selling pressure during the correction — investors across multiple wallet size categories have flipped from net selling to net buying simultaneously. As we covered in detail in our Bitcoin DCA below the 200-week SMA article, this kind of multi-cohort accumulation convergence is relatively uncommon and has historically been a strong signal that the market has found a high-value price floor.

Retail investors (under 1 BTC):
The smallest wallet holders — typically the most sentiment-driven and reactive market segment — have increased their buying intensity meaningfully over the past 30 days. Retail buying specifically during a price correction — rather than into price strength — reflects genuine value perception at current prices rather than momentum chasing. This is the opposite of the FOMO-driven buying that characterises less reliable retail accumulation signals.
Mid-sized whales (10–100 BTC):
This cohort — representing experienced individual investors and smaller institutional participants who have typically survived multiple market cycles — has also turned actively accumulative. The 10–100 BTC range carries particular signal weight because it represents participants with enough capital discipline to distinguish between short-term price volatility and longer-term structural value.
Large entities (1,000–100,000 BTC):
The largest tracked wallet category — including institutional funds, custodians, and major holders — has stopped net selling and flipped to net buyers, though at a more measured and cautious pace than smaller cohorts. This deliberate, gradual scaling-in is actually the typical behaviour pattern of large capital allocators — they enter slowly and systematically rather than aggressively, which is why their signal is no less meaningful for being measured in pace.
Today’s dual ETF and on-chain signal doesn’t exist in isolation — it joins a body of evidence that has been building throughout June 2026 pointing toward a market that is transitioning from distribution to accumulation:
The 45% of Long-Term Holder supply in unrealised loss that we covered in detail — at a level historically associated with major cycle bottoms — combined with historically elevated LTH accumulation at those same loss levels. The Ethereum monthly TD Sequential buy signal that has appeared for only the third time since 2021. And now the first positive Bitcoin ETF daily inflow in 10 days, coinciding with all major wallet cohorts simultaneously in accumulation mode.
Each of these signals measures the same underlying dynamic from a different angle. The convergence across institutional flows, on-chain wallet behaviour, technical momentum indicators, and long-term holder positioning is the kind of multi-dimensional alignment that characterises the early stages of genuine market recovery phases.
Bitcoin at $61,660 is reinforcing its hold above $60,000 on a day when two independent signals confirm a meaningful shift in market dynamics: $221.72 million in Bitcoin ETF inflows ending a 10-day outflow streak, and all major wallet size cohorts simultaneously in accumulation mode for the first time in months.
Neither signal guarantees an immediate, linear price recovery — short-term volatility remains possible, and macro factors including the BOJ rate cycle remain live headwinds. But the combination of returning institutional ETF demand and coordinated on-chain accumulation across retail, mid-sized, and large wallet holders simultaneously provides one of the more constructive structural backdrops Bitcoin has shown since the correction began.
Watch whether the ETF inflow streak continues in subsequent sessions — a sustained return to positive daily flows over multiple days would significantly strengthen the case that institutional sentiment has genuinely turned.
