According to CoinShare, digital asset investment products saw outflows for the 5th consecutive week totalling US255m, the largest single weekly outflows on record representing 1.0% of total assets under management (AuM). Bitcoin is up 11.25% over the last 24 hours and rose to an intraday high of $24409.07. The aggressive purchasing of Bitcoin has been triggered by the banking crisis in the United States. The rebound of Bitcoin on March 13th, which saw it climb above $24,000 from a local low of $19,549 on March 10th, signals a significant change in market sentiment. This recent upward momentum has opened the door for a possible retest of the strong overhead resistance level at $25,250, and if buyers are successful in breaking through this level, the BTC/USDT pair could potentially surge to $30,000.
