🧠 Crypto Word of the Day — Monthly Close
The final price at which an asset trades at the end of a calendar month. For institutional investors and technical analysts, the monthly close is the gold standard for determining long-term trend direction.

🔹ETF Validation: April has been a historic month with $2.44 billion in net ETF inflows. A strong monthly close today would prove that Wall Street's Institutional Absorption is successfully offsetting the selling pressure from high interest rates.
