Bitcoin experienced a correction after recently oscillating around the high of $98,000, with a decline of about 6%. Behind this adjustment, it is not only a release of technical pressure. The CLARITY Act has become deadlocked over stablecoin yield distribution issues, and banking institutions are worried that deposits may be attracted and flow out to crypto assets, adding many uncertainties to the policy level.

Interestingly, despite BTC facing a short-term correction, the US spot Bitcoin ETF recorded the strongest capital inflows since October last week, demonstrating resilience in the capital side. This indicates that institutional investors are still accumulating on dips.

The key focus moving forward is to observe the US PCE inflation data and GDP growth performance—these two economic indicators will directly influence the Federal Reserve's policy stance and thus determine the direction of market liquidity.

Institutions are bottom-fishing, retail investors are cutting losses, this is the gap. --- So what if 98k drops 6%? ETF capital inflow is the real signal. --- Banks are afraid of being drained, haha, that's a perfect reason. --- PCE and GDP are the real trump cards; everything will be clear then. --- While CLARITY remains deadlocked on one side, institutions are frantically deploying on the other. I wonder who will laugh last. --- Short-term correction? I see this as an opportunity to get in. --- The fact that spot ETF is taking over explains everything; retail investors' fear is the lunch for institutions. --- With so many variables in policy, who dares to hold heavy positions? --- Money talks. Don't listen to the news; watch where the money flows.

Institutions are bottom-fishing, retail investors are panicking—that's the market for you. The influx of funds into ETFs says everything; banks wanting to hold onto deposits—haha, dream on. Wait for the PCE data; once the Federal Reserve shifts, we'll take off. A 6% correction—what's there to fear? Standing firm at 98k is the real deal. Policy confusion is normal; institutions have already been positioning themselves.

Institutions are still bottom-fishing, indicating that this dip isn't a big deal.

What does a 6% drop mean? Institutions are still buying the dip. This is the real signal.

Institutions are buying madly, retail investors are panicking and selling, this is the market. Banks are panicking, afraid that deposits will be drained, haha. Let's wait for the PCE data; the real show is still to come. The supposed institutional bottom-fishing, just watch and see. Short-term corrections are normal; don't be scared out.
