With an average entry of $73,277, the firm is sitting on a paper profit of over $28.18 billion.
Despite the market’s lack of immediate bullish movement, institutional players like Strategy and Metaplanet seem to be using the current price range as a strategic accumulation zone.
At the same time, Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) saw another day of net inflows, bringing $79.97 million on July 29. This results in a streak of four consecutive days, indicating growing investor confidence.

Volatility Shrinks, But Pressure Is Building
Bitcoin is currently trading at just above $118,000, with minimal movement over the past 24 hours. This low-volatility phase comes as investors rotate their funds into penny crypto tokens. However, market watchers note that it could be calm before the storm.
Notably, the 30-day Bitcoin Volatility Index (BVIV) has dipped to 39.37, well below the 45 mark rarely crossed in the last 149 weeks. A similar setup in September 2023 led to a 50% price rally.

Over the weekend, Bitcoin’s liquidity was tested when an early investor offloaded more than 80,000 BTC (worth $9.6 billion) via Galaxy Digital’s OTC desk. The market swiftly absorbed the shock, temporarily pushing the price down to $115,000 before recovering to $119,000.
Despite this large distribution, Glassnode reports that 97% of all BTC in circulation remains in profit, totaling over $1.4 trillion in unrealized gains.

Several on-chain valuation models suggest Bitcoin is likely to stay range-bound between $105,000 and $125,000. Glassnode predicts that a break above this range could send BTC toward $141,000, where heavier profit-taking is expected.
