Deep Tide TechFlow News, March 16 — According to Cointelegraph, investment research firm Bernstein stated in a recent report that the recent rebound of Bitcoin is primarily driven by the continued strengthening of long-term holder structures.

Over the past week, BTC has risen about 7%, and ETH has increased approximately 9%, outperforming gold and major stock indices. Bernstein attributes this to ongoing capital inflows into the US spot Bitcoin ETF and continued accumulation by companies like Strategy.

In terms of capital flows, the US spot Bitcoin ETF has experienced net inflows for three consecutive weeks, totaling over $2.1 billion; since the beginning of the year, net outflows have narrowed to about $460 million, with total assets under management around $92 billion.

Regarding holdings, according to Glassnode data, approximately 60% of Bitcoin supply has not moved on-chain for over a year. Bitcoin Treasuries data shows that ETFs and exchanges collectively hold about 1.6 million BTC, while listed companies hold approximately 1.15 million BTC.

On corporate accumulation, Strategy has increased its holdings by 66,231 BTC since the beginning of the year, spending about $5.6 billion at an average price of around $85,000 per BTC, with total holdings exceeding 738,000 BTC.
