Odaily News, According to Lookonchain monitoring, BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF has recorded net BTC inflows for four consecutive trading days. Over the past four trading days, BlackRock's related products have accumulated approximately 9,269 Bitcoin (worth about $604 million).Market analysts noted that sustained institutional inflows indicate that investor demand for Bitcoin remains strong in the long term. As spot Bitcoin ETFs become a key channel for traditional capital to enter the crypto market, ETF fund flows have emerged as an important gauge of institutional market sentiment.
Odaily News: U.S. July nonfarm payrolls unexpectedly decreased by 23,000, significantly missing market expectations. Although seasonal factors and the fading of the World Cup dividend disrupted the data, this still notably weakens the Federal Reserve's momentum for a September rate hike, shifting market focus to next week's CPI.Despite the "dismal" surface data, the unemployment rate unexpectedly fell to 4.1%. This seemingly contradictory phenomenon is actually attributed to a cumulative 0.7 percentage point decline in the labor force participation rate since the beginning of the year.Analysts are divided in their interpretation of this "terrible" report. Thomas Ryan, Senior Economist at Capital Economics, stated bluntly that although the current weakness has not yet shown up in broader indicators, it is sufficient to prompt Fed officials to reassess the health of the labor market and reduce their willingness to further tighten monetary policy in the near term.In the face of this report, which Adam Crisafulli, founder of Vital Knowledge, called "extremely terrible," the capital markets demonstrated typical contrarian logic. As traders bet that the rate hike process would stop here, U.S. stock futures rose accordingly, and Treasury yields collectively declined. According to data from CME Group's tools, the market-implied probability of a September rate hike has rapidly fallen from 55% on Thursday to 44%.
Odaily News: Whale "Set 10 Big Goals First" shared market views on X platform, writing "the last chance to get on board." Previously, they noted that the current market offers too low a risk-reward ratio for shorting, and that it is already a stage-by-stage bottom. They also sense that Bitcoin is likely about to break out and initiate a new round of upward momentum, fearing they might miss the starting signal.
According to monitoring by on-chain analysis platform Lookonchain (@lookonchain), the trader who previously shorted 1,600 BTC has again closed 500 BTC (approximately $32.58 million) in short positions to avoid liquidation risk.

Odaily News Crypto analyst Ai stated on the X platform that multiple technical indicators on Bitcoin's monthly chart are flashing bullish signals, suggesting that the market may have formed a macro bottom. Data shows that the TD Sequential indicator triggered a buy signal on Bitcoin's monthly chart last month. This indicator previously succeeded in identifying the 2022 bear market bottom, and a similar signal has now emerged again.Additionally, Bitcoin's current price is near the 50-month simple moving average (SMA). Historical data shows that since 2014, this long-term moving average has repeatedly served as a key support zone for Bitcoin and has corresponded with multiple market bottoms. Meanwhile, the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) has fallen back to around -71. The last time this indicator reached a similar level was in June this year, when Bitcoin's price briefly dropped toward $57,000. Historically, extreme CMO lows often coincide with market bottom zones.Analysts believe that Bitcoin may continue to consolidate within the $60,000 to $67,000 range in the short term, but the TD Sequential buy signal, support from the 50-month moving average, and the oversold CMO condition collectively suggest that a long-term cyclical bottom may have already formed. The market will be watching whether the price can break out of the consolidation range to confirm a new round of upward trend.
Sharplink CEO Joseph Chalom (former Head of Digital Assets Strategy at BlackRock) posted that the EIP-8363 "decreasing issuance burn" proposal currently being discussed in the Ethereum community will gradually reduce validator staking yields by about 2.75%, until yields reach zero when staking volume reaches about half of the total supply; validators will then rely solely on transaction tips, accounting for 15% of current yields, to maintain operations. Chalom strongly opposes this, listing four major reasons: 1. Harms DeFi: Staking yields are the benchmark interest rate for on-chain lending; cutting them will raise on-chain capital costs and compress the collateral value of liquid staking tokens (approximately $35 billion TVL); 2. Weakens institutional appeal: ETH's native productivity is a core advantage distinguishing it from BTC; EIP-8363 will erase this difference, affecting institutional capital inflows such as ETPs and DATs; 3. Destroys ecosystem capital circulation: Issuance rewards are not "leakage," but flow to node operators, client development teams, and ecosystem builders; burning them will cut off the return of capital; 4. Extremely poor timing: Top institutions such as Robinhood, BlackRock, and BNY have successively chosen Ethereum; on-chain stablecoin scale reaches $159 billion, RWA exceeds $15 billion; modifying the underlying economic logic at this moment carries extremely high risk. Chalom expressed support for ETH's long-term deflationary goal, but believes the existing base fee burn mechanism (EIP-1

Odaily News - Investment firm Bernstein recently released a report assigning different ratings to two major Bitcoin miners transitioning to AI infrastructure: maintaining an "Outperform" rating on CleanSpark with a price target of $24, and initiating coverage on MARA Holdings with a "Market-Perform" rating and a price target of $17.Bernstein analysts stated that the core reason for the valuation divergence between the two companies lies in their differing progress in executing AI infrastructure transitions. CleanSpark has already signed an anchor tenant agreement for an AI data center and commenced construction, while MARA is still awaiting its first commercial AI contract.Regarding CleanSpark, the company previously announced the signing of a 20-year triple-net lease agreement with a global high-investment-grade technology firm, covering 175MW of IT capacity at its Sandersville, Georgia project. The agreement also includes exclusive cooperation arrangements for CleanSpark's total 885MW asset portfolio in Texas. Bernstein believes that CleanSpark's collaboration with tenant-designated engineering and construction contractors helps mitigate risks associated with its first large-scale AI infrastructure deployment. The first data center hall is expected to become operational in the fourth quarter of 2027.In contrast, Bernstein's assessment of MARA is more cautious. Analysts pointed out that the first commercial AI contract will serve as a key catalyst for a re-rating of MARA's stock, noting that company management previously indicated expectations of signing at least two AI lease agreements by the end of this year.

Odaily News: Bitcoin's volatility has recently neared zero, but market risks have not been resolved. Data shows that spot Bitcoin ETFs have not seen any outflows in the first week of August, with cumulative net inflows of approximately $754 million. However, Bitcoin's price remains around $64,700, while the options market is heavily focused on downside protection near $62,000 and $63,000.Market signals are showing divergence: on one hand, demand for spot ETFs has picked up again; on the other hand, derivatives traders are positioning in advance for a potential pullback, especially ahead of the latest U.S. employment data release.However, looking at the overall positioning structure, the market still leans bullish. Bitcoin call options account for approximately 60.7% of total open interest, indicating that investors' long-term expectations remain positive, with recent trading more concentrated on short-term risk hedging. Meanwhile, the cost of volatility protection remains low. Deribit's DVOL index, which reflects Bitcoin's expected volatility over the next 30 days, is currently around 35—a significant drop from the high of 90 earlier this year—suggesting that the market sees limited potential for major swings in the short term.That said, U.S. macroeconomic data could break this balance. The market expects U.S. non-farm payrolls for July to increase by approximately 97,500, up from 57,000 in June, with the unemployment rate expected to hold at 4.2%. If the employment data comes in stronger than expected, it could push U.S. Treasury yields higher and reinforce expectations of Fed rate hikes; if the data is weak, it could push yields down, but also heighten concerns about slowing economic growth.Currently, the Bitcoin market presents a pattern of "ETF inflows underpinning spot prices while the options market hedges against downside." Potential risks remain a concern in a low-volatility environment. With low market participation and insufficient liquidity, even small changes in supply or demand could trigger sharp swings in asset prices. (CoinDesk)
