PANews reported on November 27 that according to incomplete statistics from OKLink Research Institute, only 0.01% of listed companies in the world currently hold Bitcoin, indicating that institutional purchasing power is still in its early stages. Since November 6, 17 listed companies in the United States and Japan have announced that they hold or approve Bitcoin as a strategic asset, among which MicroStrategy purchased 55,500 Bitcoins for $5.4 billion last week. Although the price of Bitcoin has fluctuated recently due to macro events, its attributes as an inflation-hedge and liquidity-sensitive asset are attracting more institutional funds.
OKG Research predicts that about $2.28 trillion may flow into the Bitcoin market in the next year, which may push the price to $200,000, confirming that Bitcoin is moving from an "elite experiment" to a critical stage in mainstream asset allocation.
