Glassnode founder and CTO, Rafael Schultze-Kraft, has taken to Twitter to share data about substantial capital inflows Bitcoin has seen over the past calendar month.

Approximately $70 billion put into Bitcoin in past 30 days

Rafael Schultze-Kraft tweeted that, over the past 30 days, capital inflows from financial institutions into Bitcoin have totaled an eye-popping $70 billion (as estimated by realized market cap).

He emphasizes that this is similar to the total Bitcoin market cap value back in September 2017 and winter 2019. In December 2017, Bitcoin reached its previous all-time high of slightly under $20,000 as it surged from the $7,000 area within just a few months. Back then, Bitcoin hype was high and lots of retail investors were jumping on the bandwagon.

Bitcoin struggles to recover to $40,000 but demand not strong enough: JP Morgan

According to JP Morgan analysts, Bitcoin's rise to the $42,000 level observed on Jan. 8 was due to cash inflows from investors into the Grayscale hedge fund.

However, the JP Morgan team says that the impulse Grayscale Bitcoin Trust receives from investors is not strong enough to push Bitcoin back above the $40,000 price mark.

Last week, the company's Bitcoin Trust saw several major drops in funds inflows (22 percent and 17 percent) with the company's total AUM slipping to $24.2 billion (as of Jan. 22).

The share of Bitcoin Trust in that amount is around $20 billion.
