4. Mezo launches institutional Bitcoin yield vaults backed by Anchorage Digital, targeting demand to earn returns on idle BTC without losing custody - Coindesk

🏷️ $BTC β€’ Bitcoin β€’ Vaults

πŸ’¬ Institutional yield products are hitting at an interesting time with BTC consolidating below $70k. The daily chart shows weakening momentum - RSI hovering around 50 and volume drying up. If this news sparks fresh inflows, we need to see a clean break above $70k with volume confirmation. Failure to hold $65k could trigger a deeper pullback to the $60k liquidity zone. Watching how this impacts on-chain accumulation patterns. β€” @ChartWhisperer
