The spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded their eighth straight day of inflows as early market panic from the Israel-Iran conflict appears to be cooling off.

US Bitcoin ETFs hit 8-day inflow streak despite Middle East tensions

Bitcoin has been crashing with the advent of the new week, spurred on by 
uncertainties that surround the growing conflict in the Middle East. There has 
also been a lot of negativity in the crypto market, with expectations that the 
Bitcoin price will not make new all-time highs after failing to reclaim 
$111,000. Even as the market continues to bleed, crypto analysts are still 
predicting further crashes for the digital asset, with some expecting a break 
of the psychological level at $100,000. Bitcoin Price Headed For Further 
Breakdown Crypto analyst TehThomas had previously called the Bitcoin price 
crash from the $108,000 territory, suggesting that the digital asset still had 
to fill Fair Value Gaps (FVG) at lower levels before it could continue to 
soar. Then recently, the crypto analyst has once again reiterated his stance 
as the price had begun to fall back toward $100.000. Related Reading: XRP To 
End 7-Month Consolidation After 700% Surge – Is A Major Move Coming? Thomas 
explained that Bitcoin was already showing signs of exhaustion. Hence, the 
reason for the crash was due to a loss of $108,500. At this level, with the 
price failing to break out higher, it showed that the initial surge had been a 
takeout, and the right direction was actually downward. The initial bullish 
move was seemingly a way for an internal liquidity grab while clearing out 
breakout buyers at the same time. Now, the Bitcoin price has broken below an 
important channel at $105,000 after a successful retest. The analyst explains 
that this aligns with the 50% equilibrium of the high-to-low range. Naturally, 
this means that the asset is still bearish and could continue to decline from 
here. The main levels to watch were initially at $104,600, but the Bitcoin 
price had first broken below this level on Tuesday. Now, if the decline 
continues, then the next major level investors are looking at is the $102,800, 
where support now lies for the cryptocurrency. Below $100,000 Is Still 
Possible In addition to Thomas, crypto analyst Xanrox has also predicted 
further price crashes for Bitcoin. He points out that the formation of a bull 
flag does not mean the price will continue to rise, as the flag could very 
well break. If this happens, then the analyst sees the Bitcoin price dropping 
to $100,000. Related Reading: Rising Bitcoin Dominance Above 64% Dashes Hopes 
Of Altcoin Season, Here’s Why Unlike Thomas, Xanrox places his support levels 
at the much lower price of $88,000, which would suggest a major price crash 
from here. “When we look at the current price action, it looks like a bullish 
flag consolidation pattern,” the analyst said. “In this case we will probably 
see multiple liquidity sweeps below the previous swing lows to kick out early 
longs.” Another analyst, Doctor Profit, has also turned bearish, predicting a 
decline below $100,000. In the X post, the crypto analyst said that the 
Bitcoin price is likely to fall to the $94,000-$95,000 level before seeing a 
bounce from there. Therefore, the analyst has told investors to prepare for 
more red candles. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

Bitcoin Channel Break Below $105,000 Sparks Panic, Analysts Predict Further Crashes

In a bold and alarming statement, on-chain analyst OxChain raised the 
possibility of a catastrophic collapse involving Strategy (formerly 
MicroStrategy), the Bitcoin proxy firm co-founded by Michael Saylor. According 
to OxChain, this potential downfall could surpass the infamous collapse of 
FTX. ‘Strategy&#8217;s Bitcoin Tactics Resemble Ponzi Scheme’ In a recent post on X 
(formerly Twitter), OxChain expressed concerns about Strategy&#8217;s aggressive 
Bitcoin accumulation formula, suggesting that the company&#8217;s operations 
resemble a Ponzi scheme. OxChain pointed out that since 2020, MicroStrategy 
has transformed from a traditional software company into a significant player 
in the Bitcoin market, currently holding around 582,000 BTC, valued at nearly 
$61 billion. Related Reading: Researchers Forecast Bitcoin At $4.3 Million By 
2036, Citing Institutional Demand However, OxChain claims that this impressive 
figure is underpinned by leverage, debt, and shareholder dilution, rather than 
genuine conviction in the cryptocurrency. The analyst outlined Strategy&#8217;s 
approach as a “cyclical financial loop”: the firm raises capital through 
shares or bonds, purchases Bitcoin, announces these purchases to drive up 
stock prices, and then raises more funds. The analyst asserts that this cycle 
has worked as long as Bitcoin&#8217;s price continues to rise. However, with plans 
for a new $1 billion share sale, OxChain believes that Strategy is increasing 
its risk exposure. Analyst Predicts Major Liquidation Risk OxChain warns that 
Strategy&#8217;s average cost per Bitcoin is approximately $70,000, creating a 
precarious situation. The analyst adds that if Bitcoin’s price falls 
significantly below this level, the company&#8217;s treasury, currently valued at 
around $25 billion, could quickly start to suffer losses. According to the 
analyst, despite Saylor&#8217;s public commitment to never sell Bitcoin, the 
realities of accounting and risk management may force the company to act if 
market conditions deteriorate. In the first quarter of 2025, Strategy 
disclosed $5.9 billion in unrealized Bitcoin losses, revealing the volatility 
of its assets. Under the new accounting standard ASC 350-60, the company is 
required to report fair value, eliminating the ability to hide behind book 
value. This transparency has already led to legal repercussions, with 
shareholders filing a class action lawsuit alleging that Strategy concealed 
the risks associated with Bitcoin&#8217;s volatility while aggressively raising 
capital. OxChain further claimed during his social media thread that 
Strategy&#8217;s role as a Bitcoin access point is diminishing, especially as 
institutional capital flows into “more transparent and regulated options,” 
such as BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which has amassed around $70 
billion in assets under management. The analyst stressed that unlike Strategy, 
which reportedly faces dilution risks and operates with limited safeguards, 
IBIT offers a “more stable investment” for those seeking exposure to Bitcoin.

Summer Season If Strategy were to falter, the implications would be far- 
reaching, OxChain added. The firm holds approximately 2.77% of Bitcoin’s total 
supply, and a significant liquidation could send shockwaves through the 
market. The analyst warns that a decline in Bitcoin&#8217;s price by just 22% from 
its average buy price could trigger corporate liquidations, potentially 
leading to one of the largest liquidation events in history. Ultimately, 
OxChain cautions that Strategy is neither a hero nor a villain in the crypto 
ecosystem; instead, he said that it represents a “risk vector heavily reliant 
on leverage and market sentiment.” Featured image from DALL-E, chart from
