In 2025, institutional investors continue to actively buy bitcoins, as evidenced by the growing demand for spot bitcoin ETFs. According to Bitwise, countries and large funds may purchase up to 200,000 $BTC for a total of about $20 billion in 2025. BlackRock has already bought over 3% of the total bitcoin issuance for its ETF, and MicroStrategy invested $101 million in 1,070 BTC in December 2024.
Analysts at Glassnode note that the bitcoin market is becoming more mature due to the participation of large players who view BTC as a hedge against inflation. It is projected that by 2026, institutions may accumulate up to 4.2 million bitcoins, which will significantly impact the asset's supply. The growing interest is supported by the easing of access to cryptocurrencies through ETFs and backing from regulators such as the Federal Reserve, which does not see bitcoin as a threat to the dollar.
This trend indicates a paradigm shift: bitcoin is becoming a strategic asset for corporations and governments. Stay updated with cryptocurrency market news and subscribe to #MiningUpdates
