Financial markets sometimes hold paradoxes. While Bitcoin is experiencing a new surge, surpassing the symbolic threshold of 100,000 dollars, one surprising element stands out: the absence of individual investors. After the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, the Bitcoin futures market witnessed a rapid rise, with an increase of 1.2 billion dollars in just 24 hours. However, instead of widespread enthusiasm, the data reveals a significant retreat of small investors, whose activity has dropped by 50% since November 2024. This phenomenon highlights a profound transformation in the market, where financial institutions are taking over from individuals. Should we see this as a mere cyclical adjustment or a lasting change in the evolution of Bitcoin?

This institutional support, although counterintuitive in an environment of strong economic pressure, reflects a strategic confidence in the potential of cryptos. Concurrently, the data reveals marked divergences among products, reflecting a reconfiguration of investment priorities. This dynamic paves the way for an in-depth analysis of the motivations of institutions and their implications for the future of crypto markets.
