Why Are Institutional Investors Flocking Back to Bitcoin?
After months of sideways movement, bitcoin is seeing renewed interest from "whales" — large holders who often signal major market shifts. Data from CoinMarketCap shows a 37% spike in transactions over $1M in the past week, coinciding with BTC’s climb above $75,000. "This mirrors the 2024 Q1 rally," notes a BTCC analyst. "When whales accumulate, retail FOMO usually follows."
Key Resistance Levels to Watch
Bitcoin faces a critical test at $78,000, a level that’s acted as both support and resistance since June 2025. A clean break could trigger algorithmic buying, but failure might lead to a retest of $70K. Historical data from 2020 and 2023 suggests October often delivers double-digit gains for BTC — though past performance isn’t a guarantee (and no, that’s not financial advice).
--- ###Market Sentiment: Greed or Caution?
The crypto Fear & Greed Index hit 74 ("Greed") this morning, up from 42 just two weeks ago. While some traders are loading up on call options, others point to risks like the looming SEC decision on spot ETH ETFs. "It’s a classic ‘buy the rumor’ scenario," says a BTCC market strategist. "But remember 2022? Yeah, that hurt."
