One could argue that today's largest Bitcoin buyers are predominantly banks, institutions, and corporations. The market structure is becoming increasingly clear: retail investors are net sellers while institutional capital continues accumulating. Whether this trend holds long-term remains to be seen, but the current data paints a picture of institutional dominance on the buy side. This shift represents a fundamental change in who's driving Bitcoin's price action—the heavy hitters are stepping in while retail takes the other side of the trade.

Retail investors are still anxious about cutting losses, while institutions have already jumped in... This is what you call an information gap.
