Following Bitcoin's recent dip to $93,000, cryptocurrency analysis firm Santiment has shared an optimistic outlook, suggesting that both large-scale "whale" investors and smaller "shark" traders are not overly concerned.
Despite the decline, these key market players appear confident in the continued potential of Bitcoin.
Santiment reported that in November alone, investors holding at least 10 BTC have collectively acquired 63,922 BTC, totaling around $6.06 billion in value.
This significant accumulation indicates that major investors remain bullish on Bitcoin, which could point to a strong market sentiment, even if the short-term price dips continue.
The report also highlighted MicroStrategy’s recent purchase of Bitcoin, which some analysts initially found surprising given the price drop afterward.
However, the overall sentiment remains positive, with many in the industry speculating that Bitcoin could still hit $100,000 by the end of 2024.
Polymarket’s odds currently reflect a close call, with a 48% chance that Bitcoin will first hit $90,000, and a slightly higher 52% chance it will reach $100,000.
While MicroStrategy has become synonymous with corporate Bitcoin hoarding, Coinbase chose a different path.
Bitcoin is firmly trading above the $100,000 level, drawing renewed optimism from investors while also raising caution among analysts watching for potential turbulence ahead.
Metaplanet has stepped up its commitment to Bitcoin by securing $21.25 million through its latest bond offering, the company’s 14th in a series of ongoing capital raises tied to its aggressive crypto strategy.
Bitcoin has reached a major benchmark in its battle against traditional financial benchmarks, with its value relative to the S&P 500 hitting a record high of 17.725 on May 8.
