Bitcoin Experiences Mixed Reactions from Whale Investors
The demand for Bitcoin by long-term investors has continued to increase exponentially in the past year. The high demand from long-term investors is visible through the declining supply of Bitcoin on centralized exchanges, which is currently hovering around 2.17 million up from 2.72 million in January 2024.
Despite the poor performance of the majority of the US spot BTC ETFs, BlackRock’s IBIT has continued to accumulate more coins. On Monday, IBIT registered a net cash inflow of about $64 million, despite the daily net cash outflow of around $457 million.
Meanwhile, Metaplanet and MicroStrategy have sharpened their focus to strengthen their Bitcoin reserves in the coming quarters. On Monday, MicroStrategy announced the launch of STRK, a new convertible preferred stock offering, to sell 2.5 million shares and purchase more Bitcoins in the near term.
Earlier today, Metaplanet announced plans to sell 21 million shares to raise ¥116 billion as it aims to accumulate 10K BTCs by the end of 2025 and 21K Bitcoins by 2026.
Bigger Picture
The demand for Bitcoin in the near future will experience a sharp uptick catalyzed by the implementation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve in the United States, both at the state level and the federal government. According to Dennis Porter, the CEO and Co-founder of the Satoshi Action Fund (SAF), Arizona has become the first state in the United States to pass out of committee a bull to create a strategic Bitcoin reserve.
Meanwhile, the Arizona bill on a strategic Bitcoin reserve will soon move to the Senate for a floor vote backed by Senator Wendy Rogers.
As Coinspeaker reported, Senator Cynthia Lummis has already formed a team of 8 members to the Senate Banking Subcommittee on Digital Assets in preparation for creating bipartisan crypto regulations.
