Bitcoin Now Makes Up 31% of Institutional Crypto Portfolios
According to a report by Bybit , the share of Bitcoin in cryptocurrency portfolios has increased to 30.95% in May 2025, compared to 25.4% in November 2024.
The rally was fueled by a more favorable regulatory environment in the US and strong interest from institutions.
Spot Bitcoin ETF Sparks Institutional Interest
The launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs has attracted a strong influx of institutional money, causing the number of companies holding Bitcoin to increase from 124 to 244 in just a few weeks since the beginning of June.
In total, treasuries hold 3.45 million BTC , of which public companies hold 834,000 BTC and ETFs hold 1.39 million BTC .
This acceptance has led expert Joe Burnett to predict that Bitcoin could reach $1.8 million by 2035, rivaling gold's $22 trillion market capitalization.
The gap in distribution between organizations and individuals is growing.
While institutions increased their Bitcoin purchases, retail investors reduced their allocations, down 37% from November 2024 to 11.6% of their portfolios.
They shifted capital to altcoins, especially XRP, which increased from 1.29% to 2.42% on Ripple ETF expectations.
In contrast, Solana's weighting fell 35% to 1.76%. Ethereum also weakened, with its holdings against Bitcoin falling sharply, suggesting investors are prioritizing Bitcoin over any other asset.
