Several key indicators suggest that this ongoing rally may be more sustainable than those in the past, hinting that BTC could have more room to grow before encountering a significant correction.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Quietly Hits New Record High<\/h2>\n<p>BTC reached a fresh all-time high (ATH) yesterday \u2013 trading above $111,000 \u2013 yet market conditions remained relatively calm, with little indication of the overheating typically seen during previous market tops.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent CryptoQuant Quicktake post, contributor Crypto Dan noted that funding rates \u2013 often used to gauge speculative activity \u2013 have remained subdued despite the recent ATH. While long positions have increased, their levels are still significantly lower than during prior bull cycle peaks.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-483863 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?resize=2850%2C1576\" alt=\"cq1\" width=\"2850\" height=\"1576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?w=2850 2850w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq1_8750e5.png?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"><\/p>\n<p>Dan added that by examining the proportion of BTC traded within the last one week to one month, short-term capital inflow into the Bitcoin market can be determined. During the current rally, such short-term capital inflows into BTC have not been as high as seen in previous rallies.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-483866 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?resize=2824%2C1578\" alt=\"cq2\" width=\"2824\" height=\"1578\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?w=2824 2824w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/cq2_5b2a22.png?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"><\/p>\n<p>While some short-term holders have realized profits, the scale of this profit-taking is far lower than in March or November 2024, both of which were followed by sharp pullbacks and billions in trader liquidations.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, old Bitcoin whales have been largely inactive in terms of profit-taking, even as the price has reached successive new highs. This reluctance to sell may indicate that major holders are expecting further appreciation in BTC\u2019s price.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, institutional demand continues to grow, especially through US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs.
