CryptoQuant Analysts: Retail Investors' Interest in BTC Is Declining

Analysts at the CryptoQuant platform have noted a decline in retail investor interest in Bitcoin - over the past few weeks, demand from users making transactions of up to $10,000 has decreased by 2.45%.

According to their assessment, this suggests that small players are currently in a wait-and-see position and are in no hurry to actively enter the market. The decrease in the number of on-chain transactions reflects the generally reserved behavior of private investors, who are not yet showing mass enthusiasm for the first cryptocurrency. CryptoQuant emphasized that the current situation on the market has not yet reached the level of structural excitement or broad euphoria, which may be a signal that the potential for new growth remains. However, to launch a significant upward movement, sustained pressure from buyers will be required. Currently, retail market participants are waiting for clearer signals and, possibly, the approach of another historical maximum in order to start investing more actively in BTC.

At the same time, large holders, the so-called "whales", continue to consistently increase their positions, keeping bitcoins in their wallets. Their behavior remains stable, and significant changes in strategy can be expected only in the event of sudden, extraordinary events on the market.

Thus, analysts believe that further price dynamics will depend not only on the actions of small investors, but also on the state of the global economy, the monetary policy of central banks, as well as possible regulatory decisions that could affect liquidity and sentiment in the industry.
