The 30-day demand change from retails investors has just reached its highest level since 2020, as retail investors appear increasingly interested in Bitcoin.
This surge in retail interest may partly explain the strong ongoing demand, even as long-term holders begin to take profits.
🔸Historically, increased retail participation has often signaled a potential local top. However, it also highlights growing market engagement, which, when combined with institutional interest, can create sustained positive momentum.
With Bitcoin now entering a sideways phase, retail demand could gradually decline over time.
Bitcoin may continue to range for a while, with minor corrections, before making its next move upward to break the100k psychological key. This breakthrough might reignite retail demand, potentially fueling a euphoric phase in the market.
Monitoring the interplay between retail and institutional activity during this phase will be crucial, as strong retail participation often signals heightened market optimism, while institutional interest provides the foundation for sustained momentum.
