Large Investors reduce holdings, funds shift to safe havens – the truth about Bitcoin being marginalized

Abstract generation in progress

[BitPush] Large Investors continue to reduce their holdings, and Bitcoin's upward momentum is cooling. According to on-chain data analysis, Bitcoin's recent performance is significantly weaker than that of gold, silver, and tech stocks, with the core reason pointing to the ongoing selling pressure from institutional investors. Two data points best illustrate the issue: the Bitcoin ETF has shrunk by $5.1 billion from its historical high, and since October, large investors have not stopped dumping. At the same time, funds have started to turn towards safe-haven assets—gold prices are 25% higher than the 200-day moving average, and silver is even more aggressive, exceeding 45%, almost approaching the historical peak during the pandemic in 2020. In contrast, the stock market, driven by the AI boom, has the S&P 500 index close to its historical high, just 1% away from the record, and the Nasdaq is only 3% below its peak. As for Bitcoin? It is still 30% away from its historical high, showing a significant gap. Interestingly, the correlation between Bitcoin and the Nasdaq has weakened since August, and its correlation with gold has even reversed since July—this means Bitcoin is losing the acceleration of tech stocks and is instead fluctuating inversely with risk-averse sentiment. The key point is coming: the PCE data for July to September 2025 is about to be released, which may become a turning signal for the market. If the data is moderate, the market will bet that the Fed will loosen its stance, and Bitcoin may find a reason for a rebound.

Large Investors are dumping, isn't this an old routine... 5.1 billion dollars evaporated, I think this is really not a big deal, what’s truly painful is that 30% gap, when will this thing be able to recover losses?

The dumping by Large Investors has already been noticed by us. With gold and silver rising so intensely, Bitcoin is lagging behind. What does that indicate? Institutions are fleeing. 5.1 billion is gone, and we still have to fabricate stories?

Large Investors dumping is a bit harsh, 5.1 billion just disappeared like that... It feels like big funds are buying the dip in gold, while we retail investors are still here catching a falling knife.

It's really outrageous that Large Investors are dumping, 5.1 billion just disappeared... Gold and silver are going to da moon while BTC is still crawling on the ground, who can withstand this?

The dumping by large investors really seems never-ending, with 5.1 billion dollars just evaporated like that? The key point is that other assets are skyrocketing, yet this guy BTC has fallen behind by 30%, how ridiculous is that?
