The ETF Surge

The figure remains below January’s peak flow regime when multiple trading days topped $700 million.

The inflows come as Bitcoin continues stalling below $70,000, with weak spot demand and distribution by large holders capping upside. 

ETFs are increasingly offsetting that pressure, acting as the primary source of marginal buying.

The Iran Binary

Iran delivered its 10-point response to the U.S. peace plan. Key demands include guarantees Iran won’t be attacked again, permanent end to war, lifting of all U.S. sanctions, and opening the Strait of Hormuz in exchange—with a $2 million per ship fee split with Oman.

The White House holds its “no extension” posture, demanding…

McGlone bases his prediction on normal mean reversion patterns seen in commodities. 

He points to crude oil’s typical cycle from $120 to $40 and applies similar logic to Bitcoin, expecting a drop to $10,000 as part of a broader market downturn where the S&P 500 (NYSE:SPY) falls 50-60%.

“This is not a simple micro view where my math is wrong,” McGlone said. “I’m just pointing out normal reversion.” 

He argues Bitcoin faces unlimited competition from other cryptocurrencies and exhibits volatility multiples above the S&P 500, making it unsuitable as a store of value.

McGlone expects crude oil to hit $50 by midterms, natural gas to stay depressed at $2.84 (down 25%…
