Bitcoin’s exchange reserves have fallen to a record low of 2.4 million BTC, a drop from 3 million BTC in January 2024, as per a report on Coinpedia. This trend indicates a strong preference for long-term holding, particularly among institutional investors who are withdrawing their assets from exchanges. The tightening supply, combined with growing demand, has driven Bitcoin’s price to an all-time high of $108,000. Analysts believe this scarcity could propel Bitcoin to $120,000, especially following President-elect Donald Trump’s endorsement of a national Bitcoin reserve.
Namun, kekhawatiran muncul atas menurunnya permintaan di AS. Indeks Premium Coinbase, indikator utama minat Amerika Utara, telah turun meskipun harga melonjak, menandakan potensi kerapuhan dalam reli. Jika permintaan global tetap kuat dan cadangan bursa terus menyusut, harga Bitcoin bisa melihat kenaikan lebih lanjut, tetapi mempertahankan pertumbuhan ini mungkin bergantung pada minat investor AS yang diperbarui.
