Institutional Demand Continues to Rise

The price of Bitcoin continues to rise as demand from institutional and sovereign investors, who are using BTC as part of their financial strategy, increases.

According to data from bitcointreasuries.net, there are now around 170 entities that collectively hold more than 3.1 million BTC.

With Bitcoin’s supply diminishing due to the halving mechanism and demand continuing to rise, the long-term trend for BTC remains bullish.

In addition, Bitcoin’s price movements are now increasingly aligned with gold, which recently set a new record high and entered the price discovery phase.

As more institutions accumulate Bitcoin while the supply continues to shrink, market conditions seem to be setting up for some significant price movements in the near future.
