Bitcoin ETF Capital Inflows and Outflows
Galaxy Digital founder Mike Novogratz predicted a fall in Bitcoin in the event of capital outflow from the BTC-ETF. He believes that the cryptocurrency could fall in price to $50,000. Novogratz doubts that the price of the coin will fall below this level and predicts a continuation of the bullish rally after the correction, resulting in the price of Bitcoin exceeding $100,000.
