$BTC Hits Records but Retail Interest Remains Absent


$BTC reached consecutive all-time highs this week, yet retail investors show little interest in jumping back in.


Google search interest for "#Bitcoin" increased only 8% during the week of July 6-12 despite new highs.


Search interest remains 60% lower than November 2024, when Trump won the presidential election.


"Latest leg up is mostly driven by institutions," said Bitwise head of research André Dragosch.


Spot $BTC #ETFs recorded over $1 billion in inflows on both Thursday and Friday for the first time.


$BTC commentators suggest that retail thinks the $117,000 price means they "missed the boat."


The week following Trump's election victory saw $BTC rally to $100,000 for the first time ever.


ETF inflows totaled $2.72 billion over five trading days, according to Farside data.
