Bitcoin Soars To New Highs
Bitcoin, the king of cryptocurrencies, is trading at an all-time high of $72K. At the same time, BTC has been inviting extremely bullish value lately, with its institutional demand in custodial wallets peaking at a record pace.
“#Bitcoin institutional demand in custodial wallets is rising. Over the past year, 278K BTC flowed into U.S. spot ETFs (80% retail) vs. 670K BTC into whale wallets (1K+ BTC, excluding exchanges/mining pools). In custodial wallets, institutional demand is twice that of retail.”
Similarly, Ju outlined how Bitcoin is already on the verge of being adopted as a mainstream currency by 2030. Briefly explaining on X, Ju shared how Bitcoin’s institutional demand has grown rapidly.
This has led to a spike in entry barriers, which in turn has lowered BTC’s volatility. After the 2028 BTC halving, Bitcoin’s potential as a currency will increase, with the chances of being used globally consistently.
“#Bitcoin will likely be used as a “currency” around 2030. Bitcoin’s mining difficulty, which reflects the intensity of competition, has consistently hit all-time highs, increasing by 378% over the past three years. While 50 BTC could be mined with a single PC in 2009, it has become difficult for individual miners to participate. Large mining companies, backed by institutional investors, dominate the current mining industry. As institutional involvement grows, entry barriers rise, reducing Bitcoin’s volatility and its appeal as an investment asset. By the 2028 halving, Bitcoin’s potential as a low-volatility currency will increase.”
