Bitcoin Institutional Investment Soars to $400 Billion by 2026: UTXO & Bitwise Forecast

A new report from UTXO Management and Bitwise Asset Management predicts a significant influx of institutional capital into Bitcoin. The forecast, titled ‘Forecasting Institutional Flows to Bitcoin in 2025/2026,’ projects over $400 billion in investment by the end of 2026. This substantial increase is attributed to expanding DeFi applications, institutional interest in Bitcoin as a store of value, and growing regulatory approval for crypto ETFs. The report suggests that public companies, sovereign wealth funds, nation-states, and wealth management platforms are rapidly adopting Bitcoin across portfolios.
