Bitcoin price traded near $61,700 on July 3, according to crypto.news price data, after recovering from the sub-$60,000 area. 

Summary
  • Bitcoin price rebounded near $61,700 after ETF inflows ended a 10-day negative streak.
  • Analysts say BTC must reclaim $62,800 and $65,000 to confirm stronger bullish momentum.
  • On-chain data shows accumulation improving, but technical indicators still need clearer trend confirmation.

The move came as U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs returned to net inflows for the first time since June 16.

U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $221.7 million in net inflows on July 2, according to SoSoValue data. Fidelity’s FBTC led with about $166 million in inflows, while Ark Invest and 21Shares’ ARKB added $91.8 million. VanEck’s HODL saw $4.4 million in inflows.

The rebound ended a 10-day negative streak that removed more than $2.7 billion from the products. June was also the weakest month for U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs since their 2024 launch, with about $4.5 billion in total net outflows.

Bitcoin fell below $59,000 afterJune ETF outflows hit a record $4.5 billion. That selling wave kept pressure on BTC and raised doubts over whether the $60,000 region could hold.

Bitcoin faces $62,800 and $65,000 tests

The crypto has improved, but the chart has not confirmed a clean bullish reversal. BTC is trading slightly below the Bollinger middle band near $62,296. The upper band sits near $66,844, while the lower band is around $57,748.

This means the token has moved away from the lower end of the range, but it has not regained full control. A daily move above the middle band would strengthen the short-term setup and show that buyers are taking back momentum.

Market analyst Ted said Bitcoin is close to the $62,000 level and needs to reclaim $62,800 and $65,000 for a stronger rally this month. Those levels match earlier resistance zones watched by traders after the June selloff.

Previously, BTC needed to reclaim the$62,800 to $65,000 range to show that buyers were gaining short-term control. That area remains the key technical barrier.

Momentum improves, but not fully

The Awesome Oscillator remains negative near -3,085.64, showing that broader momentum is still weak. However, recent green histogram bars show that bearish pressure is easing compared with deeper negative readings from June.

That setup points to stabilization rather than full recovery. BTC needs the Awesome Oscillator to move closer to zero or above it before traders can call stronger bullish momentum.

The Bollinger Bands also remain wide after June’s decline, showing that volatility is still high. Price holding above the lower band is constructive, but the current position below the middle band shows that the market is still in repair mode.

As previously reported, Bitcoin’s earlier move above $60,000 lacked fresh buying fuel because stablecoin growth and spot demand remained weak. The latest ETF inflow helps that case, but one positive day is not enough to confirm a sustained trend.

On-chain data points to accumulation

Crypto analyst Ali Charts said Bitcoin’s Investor Price sits near $48,300. He described that level as a long-term cost-basis zone that has marked major cycle bottoms in past bear markets. If BTC drops toward that area, he said it may offer a high-conviction accumulation signal for long-term buyers.

Ali Charts also said wallet behavior has shifted over the past 30 days. Retail wallets, mid-sized holders, and large entities holding between 1,000 and 100,000 BTC have moved back toward net buying. He said this coordinated demand can help create a stronger price floor.

CryptoQuant analyst CryptoZeno gave a similar on-chain view. The analyst said Bitcoin’s adjusted sell-side risk ratio has entered a historical accumulation zone. Low readings often show that realized profits and losses are small compared with market value, meaning investors are less willing to sell at current prices.

The same analyst also said Bitcoin’s MVRV Z-Score has fallen below the +2 standard deviation level. That suggests the valuation premium is cooling, but it does not yet show deep undervaluation or a classic cycle-top structure.

ETF rebound does not remove risk

The return of ETF inflows gives the crypto its strongest short-term support in weeks. It also helps explain the move back toward $62,000 after June’s heavy outflows weakened institutional demand.

Still, traders will need more than one day of ETF buying. If inflows continue, BTC could challenge $62,800 first, then $65,000. A clean break above $65,000 would improve the recovery case and may open the way toward the upper Bollinger band near $66,800.

If BTC fails to reclaim $62,800, the rebound may remain a relief move. A drop below $60,000 would put $57,700 and $55,000 back in focus, especially if ETF flows turn negative again.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
