Bitcoin's price has seen double-digit gains in the past week due to institutional demand, as evidenced by major inflows to spot Bitcoin ETFs. This has led to a drop in retail participation during the ongoing rally. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez suggests that this indicates a potential reconfiguration of market dynamics as institutional interest takes center stage. Despite expectations of a supply shortage due to heightened demand from US spot Bitcoin ETFs, liquidity in the cryptocurrency market has actually improved since their introduction. However, there is a surplus of tokens circulating within the market and selling pressure may increase due to court rulings permitting companies to liquidate their GBTC holdings and miners increasing their selling activity.
