• Large institutional investors demonstrated significant faith in the asset's long-term potential by increasing their Bitcoin holdings

  • Some of the retail investors who invested in Bitcoin shifted to selling them when there was more fluctuation, volatility and risk.

  • The technical analysis of the Bitcoin’s chart shows several head-and-shoulders reversal patterns, which indicate that Bitcoin may turn bullish if buyers ignore the broader negative indicators.

The latest movements of Bitcoin prove that there are two distinct groups of holders in the market. When Bitcoin was trading at $54,800, the whales and the small-scale retail investors moved in different ways towards this bearish market. While holders with a smaller volume of coins decided to  withdraw from bitcoin, institutional investors went the other way round.

The data sourced from CryptoBusy and IntoTheBlock show that more institutions and governments have been purchasing more bitcoins during the price downturn. The fact that this group is rising implies that they are preparing for future profits. However, the overall participation for new retail investors has decreased significantly, which may be due to high risk and low return sensitivity of the current market.

While the broader markets may experience fluctuations ascribed to macroeconomic factors we have yet to see any specific negative news pointing at Bitcoin.Major organizations such as BlackRock, MicroStrategy, and Grayscale hold their BTC contrary to the cyclical waves of doubts regarding the coin’s reliability.

According to the technical analysis at least four head and shoulders reversals patterns are evident on the Bitcoin chart. These patterns are generally considered to signify the presence of bullish turnaround patterns. In combination with the argument that the Bitcoin price is free from negative headlines, this could trigger price drops. Analysis further strengthens the argument that current levels constitute an ideal entry point for those planning to invest in a possibly upward trending Bitcoin.

Additional information from IntoTheBlock strengthens such tendencies among Bitcoin holders. Wallets with 1000-10,000 BTC longs also added their positions during the market crash to show a bullish activity. 

Conversely, investors who held wallets with less than 1 BTC displayed large sell-offs which shows that the small investors do not have confidence in the market. Mid-size wallets holding 0.1 to 1 BTC holders remain pretty confident about their holdings.They have even slightly increased their positions, similarly to the larger holders.
