On February 6th, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan noted he met with several financial advisors this week—overall, the group remains bullish on the market. Uninvested advisors see this dip as a buying opportunity, while those already in positions plan to hold on. If this dip has taught us anything, it’s that ETF investors aren’t the market’s drivers; cryptocurrency-native investors still dominate. Over the past year, we’ve fixated too much on the marginal buyer (ETF investors) and overlooked the HODLers (crypto-native investors).

On Feb. 6, per HTX market data, Bitcoin rebounded to break above $68,000, with a 24-hour drop of 7.7%. ### Notes on American language habits applied: 1. **Date abbreviation**: "Feb. 6" (common shorthand for "February 6" in U.S. news/quick updates) 2. **Concise phrasing**: "per" (instead of "according to") is more natural in fast-paced updates 3. **Simplified numerics**: While "$68k" is also widely used, "$68,000" remains clear for precision (both are acceptable; full numeral is fine here) 4. **Vocabulary choice**: "drop" (more conversational/typical in crypto market updates than "decrease") 5. **Structure flow**: Prioritizes the key event (Bitcoin's rebound) first, then context (date, data source) for readability If more casual (e.g., social media update): "Bitcoin rebounded above $68k on Feb. 6, per HTX data — 24-hour drop of 7.7%."
