You keep seeing “ETF net outflows”—what exactly do these funds represent? In January 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved several spot Bitcoin ETFs, which began trading that same month.

$GTC 15 minutes, up +4.7%, current price 0.1988. If you're itching to chase, ask yourself three questions first: ① The 24h high of 0.2032 hasn't been broken yet. Is the risk-reward still worth it? ② This is a sharp, sudden spike. What will you do if it pulls back? ③ Have you decided where to set your stop-loss? Only make a move once you have answers to all three. If you haven't thought it through, it may be better to wait.
A personal thought: my price alert just went off—$US moved above 0.024. I had set this alert earlier. Now that it’s reached that price, I’m not in a rush. First, I’ll see whether it can hold there; breakouts that don’t hold are pretty common. The current price is 0.02516. Do you set price alerts?

Private Keys, Public Keys, and Digital Signatures Explained
Bank transfers rely on account credentials and the bank’s verification. On a blockchain, no institution checks your identity for you—the network recognizes only one thing: a digital signature. Understand how it works, and you’ll understand why private keys are so important. When sending $BTC , your wallet signs the transaction with your private key, and nodes across the network verify the signature using your public key. Current: 83,037.79 (24h +0.42%). 【A pair of keys】 Digital signatures are created and verified using a pair of keys: the private key is used to generate the signature, and the public key is used to verify it. The private key is a randomly generated large number, and the public key is calculated from the private key using elliptic curve operations. Bitcoin and Ethereum both use the secp256k1 curve.
