<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-grayscale-leads-the-race"><strong>Grayscale Leads the Race</strong></h2> 
<p><a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/bitcoin-price-at-crossroads-awaited-surge-hinges-on-grayscale-bitcoin-trusts-full-liquidation/">Grayscale</a> takes center stage, holding a remarkable 566,973.4051 BTC as of January 19, solidifying its position as the largest holder and elevating Bitcoin ETFs above Silver, securing the spot as the second-largest commodity ETF.</p> 
<p><a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/ripple-news-top-reasons-why-blackrock-has-no-xrp-etf-launch-plans/">BlackRock</a>, operating under iBIT, stands as the second-largest holder with 28,622 BTC in its Bitcoin treasury. Fidelity Investments (FBTC) closely follows in third place, safeguarding 20,466 BTC within its custody.</p> 
<p>While giants dominate, let’s acknowledge the contenders. Bitwise (BITB) holds 8,294 units, Ark/21Shares (ARKB) embraces a total of 7,565 BTC, and Invesco/Galaxy (BTCO) secures its position with 1,871 BTC.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bitcoin-price-on-a-rollercoaster-ride">Bitcoin Price on a Rollercoaster Ride</h2> 
<p>Despite the green light from the SEC and substantial <a href="https://coinpedia.org/price-prediction/bitcoin-price-prediction/">Bitcoin</a> holdings, the anticipated surge in Bitcoin prices has proven elusive. On the day of spot Bitcoin ETF approval, amid the ETF frenzy, Bitcoin surged to $48k, only to face a quick downturn.</p> 
<p>As of now, Bitcoin is trading at $40k, falling below expectations, leaving traders dissatisfied. The core issue lies in selling pressure overshadowing buying activities, contributing to this temporary setback.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-arthur-haye-s-dark-prediction"><strong>Arthur Haye</strong>s’ Dark Prediction</h2> 
<p>Adding to the uncertainty, BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes, a respected industry voice, predicts a further decline in Bitcoin’s value, projecting a drop below $40,000. Hayes has backed his prediction by acquiring 29Mar $35k strike puts, expecting Bitcoin’s descent to persist until the January 31 US Treasury quarterly refunding announcement. The purchase, amounting to 5 BTC, underscores a cautious outlook.</p>
