The institutional trading volume of Bitcoin on CEX has reached 75%, indicating strong institutional demand.
On August 13, Charles Edwards, founder of the crypto quantitative digital asset fund Capriole Investments, stated that there has been a massive outflow of institutional funds from CEX. With US inflation cooling and the market expecting a rate cut next month, Bitcoin has once again become a target for institutional investors. Capriole's data shows that 75% of CEX's trading volume this Tuesday came from institutional investors. "Any reading above 75% indicates that prices will be higher a week later." Capriole calculated that the "excess demand" from institutions this week is approximately 600% of daily output, while the current daily production of Bitcoin is about 450 coins. On Tuesday alone, Bitcoin corporate treasuries added 810 BTC; Monday's increase was even larger, approaching 3,000 BTC. These actions were accompanied by the July US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data coming in below expectations, along with BTC prices making a push towards all-time highs. When asked why institutional investors are "buying in a frenzy," Edwards specifically pointed to expectations regarding interest rate prospects: "Because yesterday's inflation data matched expectations, it means the Fed is almost certain to cut rates next month, and there may be three rate cuts this year. Given the poor employment backdrop, the market is even assessing the possibility of a substantial 0.5% rate cut. Lower interest rates = rising risk assets, and Bitcoin has always been the fastest horse."
