Following a challenging week, the cryptocurrency market has shown signs of recovery, with *BTC* exchange-traded funds (ETFs) registering positive net inflows after five consecutive days of negative balances. This turnaround reflects a renewed investor confidence in the market.

All ten Bitcoin ETFs recorded minor fluctuations, each experiencing single-day inflows or outflows under $55 million. Notably, the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) saw its outflows halve from $90 million to $45.8 million, suggesting a decrease in selling pressure. Conversely, the BlackRock iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) reported weak inflows again overshadowed by the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) for the second consecutive day.

Bitcoin Miners Gain Stability

As the Bitcoin halving passes, miners are reportedly in a stronger financial position, benefiting from both a rise in Bitcoin’s pre-halving price and more effective cost management strategies.

Bitcoin mining now consumes 99 terawatt-hours (Twh) of energy. However, the industry’s shift towards sustainability is evident, as 54.5% of this energy now comes from renewable sources, a significant improvement from 39% in 2020.

These developments suggest a maturing market where investment vehicles and operational practices are evolving. The increased use of renewable energy sources also highlights the crypto industry’s commitment to addressing environmental concerns, which may be crucial in its long-term acceptance and success.
