Top Reasons Crypto Rebounded Today

Rising Demand from Institutional Investors 

Amid the heightened fear of further crypto capitulation in the midterm, institutional investors have turned greedy and accelerated their accumulation rate in the recent past. According to the on-chain data analysis provided by Lookonchain, institutional investors have been increasing their purchasing power through depositing stablecoins in different centralized crypto exchanges.

Specifically, Cumberland, a leading provider of liquidity for crypto assets to institutional investors, deposited $372 million, received from Tether’s treasury, to different CEXs led by Binance, Kraken, OKX, and Coinbase.

The US spot Bitcoin ETFs registered a net cash inflow of about $45 million while the spot ETH ETF recorded an outflow of about $24 million.

Meanwhile, Metaplanet announced that it has secured ¥1 billion, for a 0.1 percent APR loan, to fund additional purchases of Bitcoin.

Final Ruling on SEC vs Ripple Case

The final ruling by US District Judge Analisa Torres on the SEC vs Ripple case has shed much-needed light on the entire crypto industry. Although the ruling much focused on XRP sales, Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse indicated that it was a major victory for the entire industry.
