In early February, the cryptocurrency market experienced a significant decline of 11.65%. However, recent indications suggest a potential recovery. Notably, prominent crypto analyst Ali Martinez reported that over $6 billion in capital has flowed into the market within the past week. This influx is believed to have contributed to the market regaining some of its lost momentum. Nonetheless, experts caution that this recovery must be sustainable to be considered a real turnaround.
The Significance of $6 Billion Capital Inflow
According to Martinez, the recent $6 billion capital influx has triggered recovery movements within the crypto market. At the start of February, the total market value was approximately $3.45 trillion, but the market lost 11.65% in the first week, dropping to a value of $3.09 trillion. Following this, by February 8, the market value has rebounded by approximately 2.91% to reach $3.18 trillion. This rebound is interpreted as the market’s effort to recover from the severe correction experienced earlier in the month.
Despite the market’s short-term recovery excitement, experts emphasize that more is needed for long-term growth. While Martinez views this capital flow positively, some analysts stress the importance of sustainability and the need for more cautious analysis.
Experts Highlight the Need for Sustainable Capital Flow
Anonymous crypto analyst MR pointed out that a sustainable capital flow is crucial for the long-term growth of the market. According to him, a one-week increase in capital intake does not equate to meaningful recovery in the long run. He advised that investors should pay closer attention to market volume and the movements of large crypto wallets (whales).
Over the last week, the total trading volume in the crypto market saw a minute change of 0.00001218%, currently standing at $113.9 billion. The leading cryptocurrency, Bitcoin (BTC) 
$87,261, has a 24-hour trading volume of $34.3 billion. Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) 
$2,075 contributes $17 billion, Solana 
$143 (SOL) shows $4.5 billion, and XRP accounts for $3.4 billion in trading volume, indicating significant trading activity in the market.
All these data illustrate that trading volume serves as a more crucial indicator than sudden capital inflows. Experts urge investors to focus on trading volume and the movements of major wallets rather than getting swayed by headlines or social media trends.
