Bitcoin Slides Below $77K as $80K Sell Wall Holds Firm — $155B in Fund AUM and $2.44B in April ETF Inflows Keep the Bull Case Intact

Bitcoin has pulled back below $77,000 as the $80,000 sell wall holds for a second time — but crypto fund AUM sits at a five-month high of $155B and April ETF inflows hit $2.44B, keeping the underlying bull case intact.

A macro-heavy week ahead — four central bank decisions, Q1 GDP, PCE inflation, and big tech earnings — will determine whether Bitcoin slides toward $72,000–$74,000 or finally gets the catalyst it needs to clear resistance.

Bitcoin Funds Pull in $933 Million as Crypto ETF Assets Hit $155 Billion, Highest Since February

Key Takeaways:

Digital asset funds attracted $1.2B in inflows last week — a fourth consecutive weekly gain, per CoinShares

Bitcoin captured $933M of last week's inflows, lifting year-to-date flows to $4B

Ether drew $192M for its third straight week above that threshold

Total crypto fund AUM rose to $155B — highest since February 1 — though still well below the $263B October 2025 peak

Blockchain equity ETFs saw $617M in inflows over three weeks, including a record weekly figure, as regulated allocators rotate into equity wrappers

Summary:

Institutional money is returning to crypto at a pace outrunning retail participation. Four straight weeks of fund inflows and rising AUM set up a critical test: can the momentum push Bitcoin through the $80,000 ceiling it has twice failed to clear? The surge in blockchain equity ETFs adds a layer of structural demand that doesn't appear in spot Bitcoin flow data — a sign that a wider universe of allocators is finding ways into the trade.
