CryptoQuant’s Julio Moreno said Monday that Bitcoin had moved above its 365-day moving average, which he described as the final signal needed to confirm a new bull market.
US spot Ether ETFs attracted around $270 million on Monday, their biggest daily inflow of 2026. US spot XRP ETFs recorded no net flows, leaving cumulative net inflows at about $1.71 billion.
