Analysts say that despite Bitcoin's recent failure to break through the psychological barrier of $100,000, the revival of institutional interest highlights the growing confidence in digital assets at current price levels. Valentin Fourner, chief analyst at BRN, said: "ETF inflows highlight strong institutional support, especially as macroeconomic conditions improve and inflation appears to be easing." Bitget chief analyst Ryan Lee believes that AI-driven investments and high-performance DeFi platforms are becoming the next growth frontier, and investors are turning to DeFi and AI concept tokens such as HYPE and ai16z.
