According to DL News, Bitcoin’s price rose 5% over the past 24 hours, surpassing $72,000. Analysts say this price increase was primarily driven by short covering and retail capital flows, rather than a sign of strong market confidence. Nansen research analyst Nicolai Søndergaard noted that Bitcoin’s price has been trading between $60,000 and $70,000 over the past month and has not yet confirmed a breakout. Meanwhile, Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) attracted $462 million in inflows, and DefiLlama data suggests March could be the first month since October to record positive net inflows. Livio Weng, CEO of Bitfire, expressed optimism, stating that this rebound highlights Bitcoin’s value as a safe-haven asset, particularly amid heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.
