Institutional Bitcoin adoption is a milestone for 2024
As reported by Livecoins, the listed company ‘Matador’ has added bitcoin to its reserves in recent days. However, the episode is not very prominent in 2024 as several companies bought their first bitcoin units.
Companies and investment funds, driven by concerns about global inflation and the quest for asset diversification, have intensified their Bitcoin purchases.
Additionally, banks and traditional financial institutions have further developed their Bitcoin strategies by launching products such as cryptocurrency ETFs and custody solutions that served both institutional and retail investors.
The launch of Spot ETFs in the United States were a milestoneattracting significant capital flows to the market and further increasing Bitcoin’s credibility as a viable financial asset. Major players like BlackRock and Fidelity led this change by introducing new products that facilitated institutional exposure.
Thus, the market expects that 2025 will intensify the search for bitcoin around the world, which could lead to a new price increase.
