Whales Keep Stacking Amid Frustrated ETF Flows
Despite volatile conditions for spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), whales have not stopped adding to their BTC exposure. The trend is the same for institutional investors, who continue to accumulate Bitcoin through spot ETFs. This has led to a significant increase in supply and demand dynamics, forcing price action higher.
