While Bitcoin enjoyed a rally in May, overcoming its previous all-time high and exceeding $106,000 during mid-May 2025, most altcoins remain underperforming. Despite this brief surge in value, Suliman Mulhem, a financial analyst, cautions that Bitcoin is likely to deliver stronger returns compared to the vast majority of altcoins in the long term. His reasoning lies in the sustained demand from corporations and institutional investors seeking exposure to Bitcoin through ETFs. 2024’s rally started with increased corporate involvement – notably Strategy and Metaplanet – while institutions scaled their Bitcoin investment via ETFs. 2025’s upward trend is driven by this institutional buying, not just Bitcoin price appreciation.
