After almost two years, the total locked value reaches a new record, exceeding the <strong>100<\/strong> billion dollar threshold. The effect of spot <strong>Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs)<\/strong>, launched in January, was very decisive in this success.<\/p>\n<p>Especially institutional demand gained positive momentum in crypto markets as interest in spot <strong>Bitcoin ETFs<\/strong> increased. As a result, the Bitcoin price broke a new record this week, exceeding <strong>70,000 dollars<\/strong>. According to BitMEX Research data, assets in Bitcoin ETFs passed <strong>28 billion dollars<\/strong> on March 8. This assessment leaves out the Grayscale&#8217;s Bitcoin Trust while it&#8217;s important to remember that Grayscale converted from an OTC product to an ETF in January.<\/p>\n<p>On social media, rumors are circulating that OTC trading platforms are experiencing a Bitcoin shortage and usually turning to public exchanges to fulfill customer orders. OTC desks usually serve institutional investors, and such a move might indicate the increasing influence of institutional investors in the crypto market.<\/p>\n<p>After Bitcoin&#8217;s price exceeded the <strong>60,000 dollar<\/strong> level, popular centralized crypto exchanges such as Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, and Bybit experienced some service disruptions due to increased trading volume. Kris Marszalek, Crypto.com&#8217;s CEO, has announced that they had to hire 480 more customer representatives to manage the increase in demand.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>dYdX<\/strong>&#8216;s Chief Strategy Officer and Technical Leader in trading, <strong>Ivo Crnkovic-Rubsamen<\/strong>, said in his statement, &#8220;<strong>Due to much retail interest and rapid price movements, algorithmic trading companies are making a great effort to place and cancel their orders quickly to protect their positions,&#8221;<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>All these developments seem to create a wave of movement and excitement in crypto markets. Institutional demand and growth in the DeFi space could be a significant step towards wider acceptance of cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\"><em>You can freely share your thoughts and comments about the topic in the comment section.
