Bitcoin price movements have recently stabilized around the $101,000 level, amid growing institutional confidence in digital assets, as a survey by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) and the Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA) showed that 55% of global hedge funds currently hold digital assets, while the Spanish Institute of Technology and Renewable Energy (ITER) plans to sell Bitcoin worth 10 million dollars. Each of them was purchased for $10,000.
At the same time, Robinhood plans to include Bitcoin in its balance sheet asset, suggesting growing institutional adoption of digital assets, even as technical indicators on the charts indicate the possibility of a retest of the critical support level of $100,000.
Hedge funds increase their exposure to cryptocurrencies as institutional interest increases
A growing number of hedge funds are now exploring digital assets. According to a joint report from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) and the Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA), 55% of global hedge funds currently hold crypto-related investments, up from 47% last year.
The survey, which covered 122 funds, showed growing engagement in the sector, but the majority of funds allocate less than 2% of their portfolio investments to digital assets, with an average allocation of around 7%. This increase coincides with greater clarity in U.S. regulatory guidance under President Donald Trump’s administration, which has encouraged stronger institutional engagement.
Even after the sudden decline due to leverage in October, 67% of hedge funds reported using cryptocurrency-related futures to gain exposure to their investments, highlighting the growing confidence in digital assets. As hedge fund investments reach an all-time high of $5 trillion, the increased participation reflects a growing belief that Bitcoin and blockchain assets are becoming an established investment destination within the global financial system.
The Spanish Research Institute intends to sell $10 million worth of Bitcoins purchased for $10,000 each in 2012.
The Institute of Technology and Renewable Energy (ITER) in Spain plans to sell 97 Bitcoins purchased in 2012 for less than $10,000 per coin as part of a research initiative on blockchain technology, and the value of these assets is currently more than $10 million.
The Tenerife Island Council, which oversees the ITER Institute, confirmed it was coordinating the sale through a bank licensed by the Bank of Spain and the National Securities Market Authority (CNMV), with profits to be reinvested in quantum research and other technical projects.
Officials also explained that this investment was made for research purposes and not for profit, but the sale process shows how public institutions are becoming increasingly comfortable in their dealings with digital asset management, even as European banks remain cautious, and the move highlights the exceptional potential for long-term returns of Bitcoin (Bitcoin), which provides practical experience for other public entities seeking financing options backed by digital assets.
Robinhood Considers Bitcoin Vaults Approach
Robinhood, listed on Nasdaq under the name HOOD, may soon join the list of companies holding Bitcoin balances, as CEO Vlad Tenev confirmed that the company is “still evaluating” the possibility of including Bitcoin in its balance sheet assets after its increased profitability linked to digital currencies.
While presenting the company’s profitability report for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, Tenev indicated that holding Bitcoin could improve the company’s connection to crypto economies, but it would require it to allocate a portion of its cash reserves to purchase them. The company’s revenue from digital currency trading increased 339% on an annual basis to $268 million, or approximately 20% of total revenue.

Treasurer Shiv Verma said discussions were still ongoing, while Tenev hinted at plans to allow digitally represented stocks to be traded on the Bitstamp platform. If Robinhood implements this move, it will follow MicroStrategy and Metaplanet’s approach in using Bitcoin as a treasury asset, a move that is likely to improve institutional trust and strengthen the demand base for Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Price Forecast As $100,000 Support Level Approaches and Downward Trajectory Is Consolidated
Bitcoin trading recently stabilized around $101,300, continuing its downward trend after failing to consolidate above the $104,400 level, leaving the price confined in a descending triangle pattern, which generally suggests continued weakness unless buyers intervene at basic support levels.
On the 4-hour chart, Bitcoin price continues to form progressively lower highs, with the 20-period exponential moving average line (EMA-20) surpassing its 50-period counterpart (EMA-50) in the downward direction, with confirmation of the likelihood of the downtrend continuing for the foreseeable future, especially since breaking the $100,400 support level and stabilizing below will pave the way for a retest of the 97 level $600. corresponding to the previous low at the end of October.
Although a stable Relative Strength Index (RSI) around 32 shows weak momentum, it has yet to issue a strong reversal signal, and recent candles – including small candles followed by bearish engulfing candles – indicate hesitation ahead of another possible correction.
If the price of the currency rebounds above the $100,000 zone, a breach of the $103,700 barrier could of course lead to a reversal of course and targeting the $106,300 and $111,000 levels. Currently, traders may prefer to open bearish trades with the aim of reaching $97,600, with a stop loss limit above $103,700.
As the overall sentiment trends negative for the near future and the extended upward trajectory remains in place, this correction could provide a valuable opportunity for long-term investors to buy in large quantities ahead of renewed institutional investment flows and improving macroeconomic factors.
