According to PANews, Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research, highlighted in a client report on Thursday that Bitcoin ETF inflows have surged since late April 2025. This increase is largely attributed to pressure on the Federal Reserve from figures such as U.S. President Donald Trump, who has publicly demanded that Chairman Jerome Powell reduce interest rates to 1% and resign. Additionally, Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte and Senator Cynthia Lummis have also called for Powell's resignation.
The minutes from the Federal Reserve's July meeting reveal growing policy disagreements among officials. The continuous inflow of ETF funds and mounting pressure for interest rate cuts have prompted previously hesitant traders to re-enter the market, leading to a revival in cryptocurrency bullish momentum.
Thielen noted that since mid-April, Bitcoin ETFs have purchased $15 billion worth of Bitcoin, with buying activity remaining uninterrupted. This steady demand is compelling traders to re-engage with the market. Considering the seasonal performance in July and macroeconomic catalysts, the market continues to support further growth.
