Ki Young Ju corrects his Bitcoin market prediction citing institutional changes. Bitcoin selling pressure eases with ETF-driven capital inflows. New market dynamics questioned assumptions based on old whale behavior. Ki Young Ju, CEO of CryptoQuant, acknowledged his prior bearish stance on Bitcoin was inaccurate. The easement in BTC selling and substantial ETF-led institutional investments underpin this correction. The ongoing shift spots institutional funds diminishing the traditional influence of large-scale individual actors, overhauling market cycle predictions. Institutional Inflows Transform Bitcoin Market Dynamics Ki Young Ju admitted his earlier misjudgment about the end of Bitcoin’s bull cycle, highlighting remarkable changes in market behavior. Institutional inflows, primarily through ETFs, now significantly impact the Bitcoin market landscape. The prior dynamics, largely dependent on whale activity, are being supplanted by this new influx. The ongoing influx of capital via entities like ETFs and MicroStrategy is reshaping Bitcoin’s market framework. This development marks a departure from the reliance on whale selling to predict market peaks. Business capital investments showcase critical evolution in determining market cycles. My judgment two months ago on the end of the BTC bull market was incorrect. Current on-chain data shows that BTC selling pressure is easing, while institutional funds such as ETFs are flowing in on a large scale, driving changes in the market structure. The traditional ‘whale selling triggering the top’ logic is becoming ineffective. – Ki Young Ju, Founder & CEO, CryptoQuant Bitcoin Sees 4.91% Price Rise Amid Institutional Support Did you know?
