According to Matthew Siegel, the company's head of digital asset research, financial giant VanEck is actively buying Bitcoin (BTC).
In a recent interview with CNBC, Siegel highlighted that several significant sellers have lowered the price of Bitcoin.
“The German government has sold off its entire Bitcoin, amounting to $2 billion. The US government is also selling tokens related to the Silk Road case. In addition, creditors from two major bankruptcies, Mt. Gox and Genesis, were recently paid,” Siegel explained.
He noted that despite this sales pressure, Bitcoin often faces a seasonal pattern where it struggles for one to three months after the halving event that occurred in April.
Siegel also pointed out that as the market adjusts to the results of the upcoming election, there is an expectation of continued reckless fiscal policy for another four years. Historically, this is the point at which Bitcoin tends to gain momentum.
“At this point, we are buyers. We believe it will recover,” he added.
Tokyo-based Metaplanet has continued its aggressive Bitcoin strategy, now holding over $400 million in BTC following its latest acquisition.
Bitcoin has staged a strong comeback, briefly pushing beyond $87,000 for the first time in weeks as liquidity conditions improve globally and institutional players show signs of renewed appetite, even while concerns around U.S. trade tensions keep broader markets on edge.
Bitcoin has marked one year since its latest halving event, and long-term holders have reason to celebrate.
A supermarket in Zug, Switzerland, has begun accepting Bitcoin payments, adding to the country’s expanding list of crypto-friendly retailers.
