Bitcoin has experienced a significant surge in both institutional and retail investor activity, stabilizing around $34,000 after reaching its highest value since May 2022, surpassing $35,000. This marks a substantial 107% increase since the beginning of the year, driven by anticipations regarding the launch of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and rising safe-haven demand.
Last week, Bitcoin transactions exceeded $100,000, often associated with 'whale' investors, reaching the year's high of $23,400. According to data from IntoTheBlock, this uptick coincided with Blackrock's (NYSE: BLK) ETF registration filing, likely fueling increased interest in Bitcoin among large investors and institutions.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) plans to approve several spot ETFs next year. This development has the potential to propel Bitcoin's market value to $42,000 or even higher.
Meanwhile, data from Deutsche Digital Assets indicates a growing trend in retail investor activity. The on-chain activity index for small entities reached a new yearly high of 1.5 last week, indicating increasing participation from small investors.
This upswing in both institutional and retail investor involvement underscores the escalating interest in Bitcoin as it continues its upward trajectory. The anticipated approval of several spot ETFs next year could further stimulate this activity and potentially drive Bitcoin's market value to new heights.
