ETF pressure building. Large asset managers keep refining spot Bitcoin ETF filings. BlackRock\u2019s refiling with Coinbase surveillance narrowed the Grayscale Trust discount, a sign traditional money expects approval sooner rather than later. This matters because ETFs give everyday investors exposure without handling wallets.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-331068\" src=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bitcoinetfs-1024x765.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"765\" srcset=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bitcoinetfs-1024x765.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bitcoinetfs-300x224.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bitcoinetfs-768x574.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bitcoinetfs-50x37.jpeg 50w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/bitcoinetfs.jpeg 1375w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/p>\n<p>(Source: Bitcoin ETFs \/ <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/etf\/bitcoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">CMC<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>2. Shrinking GBTC discount. The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust once traded far below the value of its Bitcoin. That gap closing signals confidence that conversion to an ETF is closer. When discounts close, fear usually fades.<\/p>\n<p>3. Long-term holders are spending less Bitcoin, while coins older than 6\u201312 months remain dormant. This behavior historically appears when sellers are exhausted and conviction returns quietly..<\/p>\n<p>4. Central bank pressure. About 93% of central banks now explore digital currencies. CBDCs challenge crypto narratives, but they also normalize digital money. That contrast keeps Bitcoin relevant as a neutral alternative.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/72x72\/1f1fa-1f1f8.png\" alt=\"\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"> COINBASE CEO JUST REVEALED THAT THE LARGEST BANKS IN THE WORLD ARE NOW GOING ALL IN ON CRYPTO<\/p>\n<p>THIS IS THE PIVOT OF THE CENTURY <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GkRP5YZddF\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/GkRP5YZddF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Vivek Sen (@Vivek4real_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Vivek4real_\/status\/2014793872308662496?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">January 23, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCOVER: <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/best-crypto-to-buy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Top 20 Crypto to Buy in 2026<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>5. Long-term supply math. Bitcoin\u2019s halving cycle still looms. Fewer new coins enter circulation over time.
