- Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) attracted approximately $1.3 billion in net inflows during March.
- Bitcoin’s price increased by about 9% in March, recovering toward the $70,000 level, though it remains down over 20% year-to-date.
- Around 70% of crypto investors hold Bitcoin, significantly more than stablecoins like USDT or USDC.
- In the U.S., only 3% of respondents expect Bitcoin to return to record highs near $120,000 by the end of the year.
Despite a rebound in U.S. crypto adoption rates and institutional demand for Bitcoin ETFs, consumer sentiment regarding future prices remains cautious, with many expecting declines below current levels.
