BTC’s Long-Term Outlook with ETF Outflows, and Whale Activity

However, MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor remains optimistic about Bitcoin’s long-term potential, predicting it could reach $13 million per coin within the next 21 years. Saylor maintains a bullish outlook on Bitcoin, driven by the company’s vast holdings of over 226,500 BTC, valued at $12.84 billion.

On the ETF front, BTC exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have faced their longest streak of outflows, totaling $1.2 billion between late August and early September. However, experts argue this is a sign of healthy market growth rather than a cause for concern.Lastly, whale activity in the BTC market has also seen a downturn, with large transactions decreasing by 33.6% since their peak in March and April 2024. The combination of ETF resilience and whale activity signals that the market may be gearing up for its next significant phase.Highlighted Crypto News Today:DIA Redefines Oracles with ‘Lumina’: Boosting Decentralization and Expanding $DIA Utility
