Bitcoin ETF Inflows Hit $785M—Will BTC Surge to $90K Next?

We had a brief outflow in March when markets got uncertain and everyone pulled back. But the data shows institutions are positioning themselves for BTC price gains again.

So far a classic weekend for #Bitcoin flat Saturday with the deciding move up/down on Sunday, $BTC on 4h is printing flat candles imo we will trade at 80s before we push closer to 90k…tho I really hope Im wrong 🤞

Institutional Demand for Bitcoin Accelerates

As Bitcoin ETFs bring in billions, broader institutional adoption is ramping up. On-chain data shows 172,705 BTC have been accumulated by new investors since Feb 23—the most since the FTX collapse.

And analysts are pointing to a safari of capital from U.S. pension funds and Target Date Funds (TDFs). According to Grok, market analyst Trader T estimates $103-122 billion will flow into the U.S. equity markets from these sources.

• If 5-10% of those funds shift to alternative assets like Bitcoin, that’s $1-2 billion of BTC in the near future.

• With this demand and ETF accumulation, Bitcoin is about to break out.

Exciting times ahead with the bounce post-FOMC! Watching closely for Bitcoin to break $90K before making any big moves. $PROPC is definitely on my radar! #PROPC #ALTSEASON

Is Bitcoin Heading Toward $90K?

Despite the low volatility, analysts are saying an imminent breakout. BTC has been stuck around $83,000 for a week, with resistance at $84,000.

Crypto strategist Altcoin Sherpa is bullish: “I think BTC will go to $90,000 before any significant correction. It might eventually test $75,000, but first we’re heading to $89K to $90K.”

Other analysts are seeing further upside, with some thinking BTC will hit $114K in the next rally.

With institutional flows accelerating and sentiment turning bullish, the next few weeks are going to be big for Bitcoin.
