Analysts say this could reverse in 2025, especially if ETH’s price performance enhances ETF returns and regulators allow the funds to generate yields from staking.

This was partly offset by upward of $3.6 billion in net outflows from Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE), which the asset manager launched in 2017, initially as a non-listed trust.

Nevertheless, the US election results have overwhelmingly provided Bitcoin with unprecedented and extremely bullish conditions considering the backing of a US President who seems to be following through with his pro-crypto promises, among them to never sell Bitcoin from the US Bitcoin stockpile.

George S. Georgiades, a lawyer who transitioned from advising Wall Street firms on capital raising to working with the crypto industry in 2016, told Cointelegraph that enacting the Bitcoin Reserve Act “would mark a turning point for global Bitcoin adoption” and likely “trigger other countries and private institutions to follow suit, driving broader adoption and enhancing market liquidity.”

Basel Ismail, CEO of crypto investment analytics platform Blockcircle, agreed and said approval would be “one of the most bullish events in crypto history” as “it’ll catalyze a race to acquire as much Bitcoin as possible.”

The Bitcoin market would likely change radically if states become market buyers. A new wave of new investors from global financial centers would flood the crypto markets, changing the market dynamics, psychology and reactions to certain events.

Bitcoin is a unique market, driven so far by retail buying and selling with the price highly reactive to market psychology. The emergence of new types of investors could shift market dynamics, altering historical cycles.

Ismail believes that “investors from the equities market will behave differently” than hyper-reactive retail investors. Institutional players bring deep pockets and advanced risk management strategies, which allow them to approach Bitcoin differently than retail investors.

Georgiades believes that “price cycles will persist,” but “sustained demand from large-scale buyers like the US could reduce volatility and the swings we’ve witnessed over past cycles.”

Ismail meanwhile pointed out the Bitcoin market is already behaving differently from previous four-year cycles. Bitcoin’s price in the current cycle fell below the last cycle’s all-time high (ATH), “which everyone believed was impossible,” and then Bitcoin reached a new ATH before the formal Halving took place.
