Impact of Institutional Investments
The assessment suggests that recent market fluctuations could contribute positively to Bitcoin's long-term outlook. Chung and his team are examining whether these fluctuations relate to the structural features of the crypto markets. Large-scale institutional purchases are believed to have a long-term impact on Bitcoin's price, particularly with the rapid growth of ETFs and the shrinking supply available on exchanges.
Chung's statements highlight the need to evaluate Bitcoin in the context of its technological structure and global liquidity dynamics. For investors, short-term fluctuations may present opportunities to reassess long-term strategies.
