🚨 Who is buying madly during Bitcoin's crash? "Powerful funds" are quietly accumulating!



Renowned investment firm ARK Invest revealed a very key market signal in their latest Q1 2026 Bitcoin quarterly report:

In the first quarter of this year, the so-called "Conviction Buyers" are massively accumulating Bitcoin.

📊 The amount of BTC held by powerful funds
Jumped from 2.13 million coins to 3.6 million coins

📊 Growth rate: 69%
Reaching a new high since 2020

And even more noteworthy is that all this happened during a 22% decline in BTC price.

In other words—
When the market panics and sells off, the true long-term funds are quietly buying.

Especially during the market's lowest point in February, on-chain data showed a clear acceleration in accumulation.

📉 Another key indicator also worth noting:

The proportion of BTC supply in profit
Dropped from about 78% in mid-January to around 50% in early February, then began to rebound.

But even as the market experienced a significant decline:

The amount of BTC in loss never exceeded the amount in profit.

Historical data shows that once the supply of loss-making BTC exceeds that of profit-making BTC, the market often enters the so-called "deep value zone"—a stage of severe undervaluation.

💡 My understanding:

There are two types of people in the market:

• Those who sell out in panic
• Those who buy during the pullback

And what truly determines a bull market is never short-term sentiment, but the behavior of long-term funds.

When "powerful funds" start accumulating, it often means that chips are shifting from weak hands to strong hands.

🌱 A message for all investors:

Price declines are a reflection of emotion;
The concentration of chips is the beginning of a trend.

The real big opportunity often arises when others are most panicked. 🚀
