In the past week, retail investors have accumulated over 4.37 million Bitcoin, suggesting a strengthening of the long-term bullish market structure, according to Akshat Siddhant, Lead Quant Analyst at Mudrex. Despite Bitcoin's slight decline of nearly 1% in the last 24 hours, the overall sentiment remains cautiously optimistic.

The global crypto market capitalization has decreased by 1%, now standing at $2.41 trillion. Analysts note that macro indicators such as US GDP and jobless claims are affecting market movements, with broader market sentiment still sensitive to geopolitical tensions and inflation. As the market stabilizes, a consistent move above $72,000 is necessary for clearer directional signals.
