- 15:55Analysis: The Current Bitcoin Rally is Led by Institutions, While Retail Investors Remain CautiousCoindesk analyst Aoyon Ashraf stated that Bitcoin reached an all-time high this week, primarily driven by institutions, with retail investors almost "absent" from this rally. A quick search for "Bitcoin" as a keyword on Google Trends reveals that the search frenzy seen during the 2021 bull market is now completely absent. Although there was a brief wave of retail enthusiasm during the U.S. presidential election, when a rapid Meme coin frenzy briefly ignited market sentiment, that wave of enthusiasm has long since faded. Despite Bitcoin breaking through $111,000 this week to reach an all-time high, Meme coin prices quickly fell, and retail enthusiasm cooled accordingly. Even though Bitcoin has reached an all-time high, traders remain cautious, as evidenced by lower funding rates and increased short positions. The current market sentiment shows a trend towards more sustainable trading behavior, which could pave the way for long-term gains.
