BTC Institutional Interest Spikes as Firms Capitalize on Price Dip

Over the past few weeks, Bitcoin’s price performance has remained majorly unimpressive. At the time of press, Bitcoin is down 0.9% in the past 24 hours, trading at about $83,440. In the past week, BTC’s price dropped 4.7%, fluctuating between $81,488.96 and $87,577.73. This price range underscores Bitcoin’s recent struggles to reclaim $90,000.

Despite Bitcoin’s persistent struggles, institutional interest in the token remains strong. On April 2, Metaplanet announced its most recent purchase involving 160 BTC. The company spent $13.2 million, with each token costing an average of $82,680. The purchase increased Metaplanet’s Bitcoin holdings to 4,206 BTC, worth approximately $359 million.

On March 31, Michael Saylor, Strategy’s co-founder, announced that the company purchased 22,048 BTC for $1.92 billion. Each BTC cost an average of $86,969. The purchase increased Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings to about 528,185 BTC, valued at about $35.63 billion.

Last month, GameStop announced plans to include Bitcoin in its treasury. In a follow-up news, Crypto2Community reported that the company plans to raise $1.3 billion by selling convertible notes in a private transaction. The proceeds from the deal will be used for the company’s general business needs, including Bitcoin investments.
