Inflows of $80 billion in a single day

in Project HOPE25 days ago

On April 1, 2025, the cryptocurrency market saw a massive infusion of capital, totaling $80 billion, signifying a big resurgence after a period of downturn. This spike was not limited to a single asset, but rather a wide market movement, with increases seen in all of the top ten cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, with the exception of stablecoins such as USD Coin (USDC) and Tether (USDT), which witnessed negligible price movements.

This unexpected gain in market capitalization came after a severe collapse earlier in the week, when the cryptocurrency market lost $100 billion in value in 24 hours. On March 31, the market hit a local bottom, with the entire market capitalization dropping to $2.63 trillion before recovering to $2.71 trillion.

Despite this good trend, macroeconomic fundamentals such as tariffs and inflation remain a source of concern for the rally's long-term viability.However, recent inflows indicate a revived interest in cryptocurrencies, which might pave the way for more market expansion in the coming months. Large investors, like MicroStrategy, have been aggressively purchasing cryptocurrencies, adding to the market's upward momentum. MicroStrategy just paid $584 million for 6,911 BTC, demonstrating its faith in the market.

Recent hints from US President Donald Trump regarding tariff flexibility have reduced economic uncertainty, encouraging investors to return to cryptocurrency. This adjustment in policy approach has helped to boost market sentiment.
