Bitcoin Continues to Attract Investors
More survey shows that BTC holders are accumulating the digital asset class despite the bearish nature of the cryptocurrency market. This development is no surprise because investors believe now is the right time to buy when the price is low. For example, Santiment on Saturday revealed that Bitcoin sharks had accumulated 52,000 BTC in 5 weeks.
Nonetheless, the asset’s price continues to struggle as inflation persists and institutional investors remain risk-off.
In a tweet on Wednesday, Vetle Lunde, an analyst at Arcane Research, revealed that ProShares short Bitcoin ETF BITI had seen massive inflows as investors anticipate US inflation data later today.
Shorts are piling in ahead of today's CPI release.
