Bitcoin has surged 25% from recent lows amid rising bond yields and escalating Middle East tensions, showing notable resilience compared to other risk assets. Institutional interest remains strong, with Bitcoin ETFs hitting all-time highs in assets under management and holders, indicating sustained accumulation by smart money. The Bitcoin-to-Gold RSI is at its lowest ever, historically a bullish sign, and the 200-week moving average remains intact, suggesting the bear market is not confirmed. Analysts see the current dip as a technical correction rather than a shift in momentum, with potential support around $70,000 but overall bullish outlook prevailing.
