Companies' buying pressure toward Bitcoin (BTC) appears to be intensifying. Institutions are quickly scooping up amounts equal to four times the mining rate, raising the possibility of a supply shock.

On the 1st (Korean time), crypto outlet Cointelegraph, citing data from River, reported that institutional daily average Bitcoin purchases in the first half of 2025 reached 1755. This is four times the 450 that Bitcoin mining companies produce on average per day.

Specifically, companies that incorporated Bitcoin into their strategic reserve assets (treasury) bought an average of 1399 bitcoins per day. Meanwhile, private companies that had been holding existing Bitcoin bought an average of 356 per day.

In addition, the daily average Bitcoin purchases caused by other investment vehicles, including exchange-traded funds (ETFs), were 1430, and governments bought an average of 39 bitcoins per day.

The outlet said, "As institutional Bitcoin buying accelerates, experts have consistently raised the possibility of a Bitcoin supply shock," adding, "Some experts say this could trigger a Bitcoin rally."
