What caused the $1.1 billion crypto inflows last week?

Easing U.S. inflation (CPI at 2.9% YoY) and reduced geopolitical risks boosted risk appetite, with bitcoin products capturing 85% of flows.

Will bitcoin hit new highs after these inflows?

Possible with Fed cuts ahead—echoing 2019's rally—but Mt. Gox distributions pose downside risk. Target: $70k by Q4.

Are crypto funds safe for regular investors now?

ETFs lower barriers, but volatility persists; treat as 5-10% portfolio allocation max, not a savings account.
