$BTC by Michael J. Saylor and his firm MicroStrategy has intensified debate over whether the market is nearing a structural supply shock. The claim that “Saylor buys two BTC for every one mined” is not a fixed rule, but recent data shows institutional demand—led by Strategy—has at times significantly exceeded new issuance.
Following the 2024 halving, Bitcoin’s supply growth has fallen to roughly 450 BTC per day. This fixed issuance contrasts with increasingly aggressive accumulation. Strategy now holds over 800,000 BTC, and in 2026 alone, its purchases have reached tens of thousands of coins—often surpassing total mined supply within the same period. On a year-to-date basis, estimates suggest Strategy has acquired roughly double the amount of Bitcoin produced by miners, lending credibility to the “2:1” narrative.
This imbalance signals a shift in market structure. Miners historically provided steady sell-side liquidity, but when a single institutional player absorbs more than 100% of new supply, available market float tightens. Combined with long-term holders and ETFs locking up additional supply, the effective circulating Bitcoin becomes even more constrained.
However, a true supply shock depends on sustainability. Strategy’s buying relies on continued access to capital markets, and any slowdown could ease demand pressure. Additionally, large holders themselves can introduce volatility if they change strategy.
In institutional terms, Bitcoin is transitioning from a miner-driven supply model to a demand-driven treasury model. Current data suggests the ingredients for a supply shock are present—but its realization depends on how long this imbalance persists.

$BTC sta attualmente negoziando nella fascia $77,000–$78,000 dopo un forte rally che ha testato ripetutamente la zona $79,500–$80,000. Il livello $80,000 è emerso come una resistenza significativa, supportata da una posizione concentrata delle opzioni, attività di presa di profitto e pressioni macroeconomiche più ampie.
Un breakout sostenuto sopra questo livello dipenderà probabilmente dalla continua domanda istituzionale, in particolare attraverso i flussi di ETF spot, insieme a condizioni macroeconomiche favorevoli come l'allentamento dell'inflazione e rendimenti obbligazionari stabili. Inoltre, la riduzione della pressione di copertura dovuta alla scadenza delle opzioni e una chiara conferma tecnica supportata da un forte volume di scambi potrebbero facilitare un slancio rialzista.

L'interesse istituzionale più ampio persiste attraverso posizioni in azioni correlate (ad esempio, Robinhood) e discussioni in corso sulla tokenizzazione degli asset nel mondo reale (RWA), che ha visto una crescita sostanziale.
$BTC continua a consolidarsi vicino al livello di $78.000, registrando guadagni di circa l'1,4% nelle ultime 24 ore, mentre il sentiment di rischio migliora sui mercati globali.
La capitalizzazione totale del mercato delle criptovalute è salita a $2,59 trilioni, riflettendo guadagni complessivi modesti di circa l'1% mentre gli investitori digeriscono le forti performance di aprile e si posizionano per potenziali movimenti a maggio.

Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss' crypto exchange now holds licenses allowing it to expand into regulated derivatives and prediction markets, the fastest-growing sectors in crypto.
Gemini, the crypto exchange run by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, won CFTC approval for a derivatives clearinghouse license, allowing it to clear and settle its own derivatives and prediction-market trades.The license, combined with Gemini’s existing designated contract market authorization, positions the company to offer a full-stack U.S. trading ecosystem spanning sports, crypto, futures, options and event-based contracts.The move comes as prediction markets rapidly expand, with volumes surging in 2025 and Wall Street preparing ETFs tied to the sector, while Gemini doubles down on the U.S. after exiting the U.K., European Union and Australia.

Gemini Space Station (GEMI), the crypto exchange run by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, received U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) approval for a derivatives clearinghouse (DCO) license, allowing it to enter regulated derivatives and crypto’s fastest-growing, most-contested sector, prediction markets.
The approval allows Gemini to clear and settle trades in-house instead of depending on external providers, giving it greater control over how its prediction market products function and scale.
Gemini shares climbed about 7% following the announcement.
Prediction markets have become one of crypto's fastest-growing areas, with trading volume increasing over 300% in 2025 to $63.5 billion, and Hyperliquid, a DeFi derivatives platform, is getting ready to compete with incumbents such as Kalshi and Polymarket. Wall Street is also in, as Roundhill Investments is expected to roll out the first U.S. exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tied to prediction markets on May 5, while two other asset managers are preparing similar products.
The approval builds on the crypto firm’s December 2025 debut of a prediction marketplace via another affiliate, Gemini Titan, which received a designated contract market (DCM) authorization from the CFTC.
With DCM and DCO licenses in place, Gemini is positioned to offer a full-stack trading ecosystem spanning sport, crypto, futures, options, and event-based contracts, the company said. Gemini also expressed intentions to expand into crypto futures, options and perpetuals for U.S. users.
“Today marks a major milestone in Gemini’s marketplace expansion,” Cameron Winklevoss said in the statement, framing the development as part of a broader push toward a “super app” for financial services.
In February, Gemini made public its plans to enter the prediction markets sector and focus solely on the U.S. when it announced its exit from the U.K., European Union and Australia, which included a staff reduction of roughly 25%.
“The reality is that America has the world’s greatest capital markets and America has always been where it’s at for Gemini,” the founders said, adding that their “thesis is that prediction markets will be as big or bigger than today’s capital markets.”
