Bitcoin is once again at the center of market turbulence, trading just above the $110,000 level, which many analysts view as a critical zone of demand. While BTC is holding this support for now, volatility has surged as bears increase pressure and investor sentiment grows cautious. The market is closely watching whether Bitcoin can maintain its footing or if a deeper correction will unfold. Related Reading: Ethereum Demand Spikes As Whales Add 260K ETH In 24 Hours One of the biggest factors fueling this uncertainty is the recent capital rotation from Bitcoin to Ethereum, a shift that has rattled Bitcoin loyalists. Ethereum’s resilience and whale accumulation have put BTC under additional scrutiny, raising fears that Bitcoin’s dominance in the market could weaken if the trend continues. Adding to the caution, top analyst Axel Adler highlighted fresh data showing a surge in BTC+ETH inflows to exchanges following Bitcoin’s all-time high of $124,000. At the same time, stablecoin inflows lagged significantly, signaling that the recent increase in supply on exchanges was not met with fresh liquidity. This imbalance often points to profit-taking and excess selling pressure. Bitcoin Inflow Ratio Signals Bearish Setup According to Adler, the recent weakness in Bitcoin is strongly linked to exchange flow dynamics. He points to the Inflow Ratio (BTC+ETH ÷ Stablecoins), a key indicator that measures the balance between major crypto inflows and stablecoin liquidity. Recently, this ratio spiked to 4.0×, coinciding with a wave of selling pressure and a noticeable price pullback. Adler explains this as a classic case of excess supply overwhelming fresh liquidity, a dynamic that has historically placed downward pressure on Bitcoin. Since then, the ratio has eased to around 2.7× on a 7-day moving average, and inflow volumes of majors have cooled to approximately $5 billion per day. While this marks an improvement from the extremes, it still signals that inflows of BTC and ETH are relatively high compared to the stablecoin capital available to absorb them. Simply put, there is not enough new demand flowing in to support sustained upward movement at current levels. Adler’s assessment suggests that Bitcoin remains in a bearish setup, with limited buying liquidity keeping rallies capped. However, he also cautions that crypto markets are highly dynamic, and trends can shift quickly. A sudden resurgence in stablecoin inflows or renewed institutional demand could reverse the current imbalance, sparking another bullish leg. For now, though, the data leans bearish, highlighting the importance of monitoring exchange flows as BTC navigates this critical phase. Related Reading: Bitcoin Mirrors Historical Pullback Ranges – Healthy Correction Or Trouble Ahead? BTC Testing Pivotal Resistance Level Bitcoin is currently trading near $111,192, showing a modest recovery after last week’s volatility that pushed the price below $108,000. The chart highlights Bitcoin’s attempt to reclaim momentum, with the price hovering just above the 100-day SMA (green line at ~$111,737). This moving average now acts as immediate resistance, and BTC needs a clear breakout above it to signal strength. On the upside, the 50-day SMA (~$115,638) represents the next major barrier. If bulls manage to push above this level, it would open the path to retesting the local peak around $123,217, marked as a key resistance line. However, Bitcoin’s inability to sustain gains above the 100-day SMA in recent sessions suggests that sellers remain active. Related Reading: Ethereum Demand Stays Strong As Exchange Reserves Keep Falling – Details Support lies around $108,000, with stronger demand likely at the 200-day SMA (~$101,460). A breakdown below $108,000 could expose BTC to deeper losses, potentially dragging the price toward the psychological $100,000 level. Bitcoin remains in a consolidation zone, caught between major moving averages. A decisive move above $115,000 would tilt momentum bullish again, while a failure to hold current levels risks renewed selling pressure. Bulls must defend $108,000 to prevent further downside.

According to market reports, two ETF decisions are coming up in October. Grayscale faces an Oct. 18 deadline, while Canary is set for Oct. 24. Related Reading: Mastercard Stresses Crypto Is An Enhancement, Not A Substitute A Polymarket poll, which has roughly $150,000 in assets, shows approval odds rising to 87% from an August low of 64%. Some traders say those odds are helping prices because investors expect the US regulator to wrap up multiple ETF filings around the same time, as was the case with spot Bitcoin and Ethereum approvals earlier this year. Market Flows And Demand Data Reports have disclosed strong flows into crypto funds, and analysts point to those moves when discussing potential XRP demand. XRP rose 3% on Tuesday to $2.80, pulling back from this week’s low of $2.68. The move trimmed part of a slide that has pushed the token about 23% below its year-to-date peak of $3.6654. Traders told market watchers they were watching the pair of ETF deadlines on the calendar as one reason for the bounce. Spot Bitcoin ETFs have taken in over $54 billion in inflows, while Ethereum funds show about $13 billion. Existing XRP-related ETFs from providers such as Teucrium and ProShares have pulled in millions in assets, according to filings and industry commentary. The newly launched CME futures for XRP reached more than $1 billion in open interest quickly, a pace that has been noted by some market participants as a sign of appetite for XRP trading exposure. Technical Setup Points To A Possible Breakout XRP fell from a July high of $3.66 to roughly $2.80 recently. That drop is being read by some technicians as part of a falling wedge pattern, which many chart readers view as a bullish formation. Risks Remain Meanwhile, regulatory timing is uncertain. The US regulator has postponed related ETF decisions multiple times, and another delay is possible. Broader market weakness could blunt demand even if approvals arrive. Reports and market commentaries caution that past outcomes for Bitcoin and Ethereum do not automatically guarantee identical results for XRP, given differences in market structure and history.

For now, XRP sits between support near $2.68 and the $4 target that would signal a more sustained move higher. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView
