Why It Matters: The recent inflows into bitcoin ETFs suggest growing investor confidence, despite the lower trading volumes compared to earlier in the year.

On July 11, CryptoQuant reported a significant outflow of 35,486 BTC from BitMEX, marking the second-largest outflow in the exchange's history. Historically, such large outflows have been linked to bullish trends, as they often indicate that major investors are moving their holdings to cold storage, thereby reducing immediate selling pressure.
