BTC and ETH Market Insight

The U.S. core PCE rates aligned with expectations, and the probability of a rate cut in July has further decreased to 22%. U.S. stock market plummeted after President Trump says China has violated their trade deal with the US. After an initial breakout, BTC's price briefly retreated to $107k before settling around $104k for the remainder of the week. To maintain upward momentum as the price increases, greater buy-side demand is needed to absorb the distributed coins. Ethereum spot ETFs experienced a total net inflow of $70.24 million on Friday, recording ten straight days of inflows.
