#2026年比特币行情展望 $91,000 — Bitcoin's Three-Week Defense and Offense
The recent performance of BTC has indeed been a bit different over the past week. The price surged to $91,000, but the driving force mainly came from genuine spot market buying rather than high-leverage speculative funds in futures. From a market structure perspective, this kind of movement is much more stable.
The data clearly shows: US spot ETFs resumed large-scale net inflows at the beginning of the year, with $471 million coming in on a single day. What does this mean? Institutional investors are starting to return in an orderly fashion, with long-term allocation funds pouring in. This is completely different from retail investors chasing highs.
But there's a detail here. The whale long-short ratio has turned bullish for the first time, reaching 1.45. On the surface, this is a positive signal. However, digging deeper — the holding costs of these large funds are generally still above the current price. In other words, while they are bullish, most of them did not buy the bottom. This indicates that the current market state is: sentiment has just emerged from a low point, the trend is initially stabilizing, but it’s far from being overheated.
Reflect on a question: Are we too obsessed with tracking price fluctuations? The true value of crypto assets may not lie in the ups and downs of the numbers themselves, but in whether we can use transparent on-chain mechanisms to solve real-world problems. Making every participation and contribution verifiable and visible — this is where the true warmth of the ecosystem resides.

Institutional entry is just institutional entry, but don't talk about that ecosystem temperature stuff. I just want to know if the 91000 level can be broken, and what happens after it breaks.

Institutions are really quietly making moves, this wave is different. Retail investors are still debating the rise and fall, while they have already been building positions.

technically speaking, if you actually analyze the onchain data instead of just watching candlesticks, the whale ratio at 1.45 is demonstrably sub-optimal for real accumulation patterns. their cost basis being above current price? that's inefficient entry execution right there.

Institutions are pouring in real money, while whales are still trapped; this gap is interesting. Right now is just the emotional recovery period, far from madness.

Institutional entry is indeed stable, but I still think it's a bit early to chase the highs now...

Institutional entry is a different ballgame; this is what healthy growth looks like. Compared to the excitement of leveraged liquidations, I still prefer the stable capital inflow from spot ETFs, which feels like genuine confidence.

Well, institutional involvement is just different. This wave is definitely much more reliable than retail investors chasing highs.

Institutional entry makes a big difference; this wave is much more stable. Retail investors chasing highs should have changed that approach long ago.

Institutions are really quietly making moves, and that's the most terrifying part. Retail investors are still struggling with whether 91k can be broken, but they have already been allocating.

Institutional entry is truly different; retail investors chasing highs and pouring in real money and silver definitely feel like two completely different things. However, the whale's cost is still above, which is interesting and indicates that no one expected it to bounce back so quickly.
