Low amount of Institutional Investors

About a month ago, JP Morgan financial analysts predicted a drop in the inflow of funds which could accelerate a market correction. As at that time, Bitcoin was trading lower than $24K.
Following Bitcoin’s price hike and attaining the present all-time high of $42K on the 8th of January, the campaign became unstable and a progression of correction accompanied it. On the Bitstamp exchange, BTC is presently trading at $33,371.
