STRC Leads Institutional Buying with 77,000 BTC Acquisition

STRC, a prominent institutional investor, has continued its aggressive buying spree in the cryptocurrency market. According to recent data, STRC has acquired an impressive 77,000 BTC year-to-date in 2026, dwarfing the combined buying of all spot Bitcoin ETFs, which stands at around 8,000 BTC.

This surge in STRC's accumulation rate has not gone unnoticed, with traders pricing in stronger corporate demand for Bitcoin. The increased buying activity has contributed to a rising probability of Bitcoin hitting an all-time high by March 31, 2026, with the June 30 market sitting at 3.4% and the December 31 market at 17.5%. This trend points to expectations of a larger move in the second half of the year.

The market's focus on STRC's buying activity has also driven interest in Bitcoin price targets. The $80,000 threshold now stands at 36.5%, up from 30% yesterday, while the $150,000 target remains at 0.1%, indicating limited belief in reaching that level this month.

STRC's sustained institutional buying pressure has sent a clear signal to the market: corporate demand for Bitcoin is on the rise. As traders continue to price in this demand, the stage is set for potential further price increases.
