Bitcoin price surges past $91,000 as ETF inflows hit $381M; Trump’s Fed comments fuel risk rotation into crypto assets.
Bitcoin (BTC) crosses $91K as Trump ignites capital flight to crypto
Bitcoin (BTC) surged past $91,000 for the first time in 52 days, as institutional capital rotated into crypto markets following renewed political friction over U.S. monetary policy.
According to BBC reports, President Donald Trump’s has made fresh attacks on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell—accusing him of politicizing rate decisions and stifling economic recovery—amplified volatility in equities and bonds, driving risk-sensitive investors toward digital assets.
Speaking Monday, Trump warned that Powell “should do the rate cuts because the European Central Bank has already moved,” threatening his removal if reelected. Powell has maintained his intention to complete his term, which ends May 2026.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Dollar Index fell to 97.92—its lowest since 2022—while 10-year Treasury yields jumped above 4.4%, underscoring market unease over perceived political interference.
ETFs signal institutional conviction as Ark, BlackRock, Fidelity drive inflows
Crypto market reactions after Trump’s latest comments also reflect growing institutional demand. According to SosoValue data Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $381 million in net inflows Monday—the strongest single-day acquisition since January 2025. This prompted BTC price to rally 4.5% in the last 48-hours, to hit the $91,200 on Tuesday.
As seen in the chart above, Ark Invest’s ARKB led the surge with $116 million in flows, followed by Fidelity’s FBTC with $87 million and BlackRock’s IBIT with $41 million.
These inflows point to deepening conviction among U.S.-based asset managers that crypto remains a viable macro hedge, particularly as political instability clouds traditional monetary policy.
More so, the appointment of Paul Atkins as SEC Chair has also helped sentiment. Known for his market-friendly stance, Atkins has pledged to “prioritize a regulatory framework that supports innovation in crypto,” signaling a likely shift away from the enforcement-heavy approach of Gary Gensler.
Bitcoin Price Forecast Today: Breakout momentum targets $94,000 next
Bitcoin price forecast today remains bullish after BTC confirmed a breakout from a tight 3-week consolidation, rising 4.93% to $91,214.
The 12-hour chart shows BTC decisively above its 5, 8, and 13-period simple moving averages, with upward sloping angles—a classic continuation signal. The RSI reading at 71.77 indicates short-term overbought conditions, yet the divergence from the RSI moving average (57.46) reinforces bullish momentum.
This setup suggests BTC could extend toward the $94,000–$95,000 zone if ETF demand persists and macro instability continues. Traders should monitor $87,900 as the next major support, with a break below $88,500 potentially signaling exhaustion. Until then, the broader trajectory remains skewed to the upside.
