Banks are indirectly gaining exposure to Bitcoin by investing in MicroStrategy shares, which holds a substantial amount of BTC. Banks collectively hold nearly 40,000 BTC worth over $4 billion through these investments. The U.S. government also holds over 270,000 BTC and may acquire more. With institutional accumulation increasing and central banks showing interest in Bitcoin, financial institutions may be preparing for the next Bitcoin supercycle. Additionally, the U.S. government's large BTC holdings could trigger further institutional buying. The Governor of the Czech National Bank has proposed allocating up to 5% of the bank's reserves into Bitcoin. As central banks and institutions accumulate BTC, analysts are predicting a price surge, with targets ranging from $175K to $200K by 2025. This suggests that institutions are preparing for a significant Bitcoin price increase.
