Bitcoin Bulls Trigger Unstoppable Crypto Buying Frenzy—Is This the Start of the Next Mega Rally?
Bitcoin maximalists are doubling down—sparking the largest accumulation phase since the 2021 bull run. On-chain data shows wallets with 10+ BTC just hit a two-year high.
Why the sudden surge? Three catalysts fueling the fire:
1. Institutional FOMO: BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF just crossed $25B AUM—wall street finally gets it (or pretends to).
2. Halving Hysteria: With less than 8 months until the next supply cut, traders are front-running scarcity narratives like clockwork.
3. Macro Meltup: The Fed's rate-cut whispers have degenerates levering long—because nothing says 'risk-on' like betting the house on internet money.
Cynical take? This could just be hedge funds recycling 2024 profits before the SEC drops another regulatory bomb. But when has rationality ever stopped crypto?
Bitcoin Accumulation by Corporations
When Strategy embarked on its Bitcoin$117,108 journey in 2020, it went largely unnoticed. Yet, by 2021, the gains it yielded had stirred excitement. Even amidst bear markets, the persistent accumulation of Bitcoin reserves became a subject of mockery at times. However, Strategy’s purchases, now accumulating to 628,000 BTC, underline the firm conviction underlying this endeavor. Interestingly, new companies are steadily joining this quest.
According to CoinGecko, the total bitcoin reserves held by corporations have surpassed 927,471 BTC, crossing a $108 billion threshold. Strategy remains the largest investor, and it is noteworthy that all entities accumulating reserves are publicly traded companies.
Stock-market listed corporations, aiming to boost their share prices, perpetuate a cycle of public offerings and increased cash generation to amass more BTC. Emulating Strategy’s footsteps, the goal for these firms is to accumulate over half a million BTC.
Constant acquisitions mark their journey. Japan-based Metaplanet recently made headlines with a $53.66 million purchase on August 4th, pushing its crypto reserves beyond $2 billion. Trump’s company, having invested $2 billion weeks ago, has already amassed $2.148 billion. Strategy, following a massive $46 billion expenditure on BTC acquisitions, now manages assets worth $73.3 billion. Had it remained solely in the software business, such rapid wealth accumulation in billions might not have occurred.
Expectations in the Crypto Landscape
Companies heavily investing in Bitcoin continue to grow their reserves. Additionally, the US government has formed its own reserves from seized assets. Significantly, retirement plans now permit investments in Bitcoin. Furthermore, financial giants are increasingly delving into cryptocurrency markets. Progress in regulatory measures is evident with an already established clarity concerning stablecoins. Approval for Altcoin ETFs is imminent, suggesting increased cash influx into the cryptocurrency markets.
But what is the short-term outlook? The prevailing sentiment towards cryptocurrencies is becoming increasingly optimistic. ETH’s struggle to maintain a level above $3,900 coupled with the conclusive resolution of the XRP lawsuit significantly boosts risk appetite. Should ETH surpass the $4,100 level, much-anticipated altcoin rallies could materialize.
DaanCrypto has analyzed the current trends around BTC and concluded:
“BTC continues to rise steadily after eliminating much of the local liquidity below. Currently, a significant cluster is above $120,000. Upon reaching this level, it could trigger numerous short stop-loss and liquidation levels, thereby accelerating the upswing.”
