Reports have surfaced that Grayscale Investments<\/a> is buying more Bitcoin than can be mined.<\/p>\n

According to a recent 8-K filing<\/a> with the SEC, in a one week period, Grayscale added 19,879 BTC to its assets under management.<\/p>\n

One block is produced every 10 minutes, post halving each block now produces 12.5 BTC<\/a>. Therefore, the average daily rate of production is 1,800 BTC (6 x 24 x 12.5), meaning an approximate average production rate of 12,600 BTC per week.<\/p>\n

Comparing the disparity between the figures has led many observers to comment that institutional demand, via Grayscale’s clients, will be the driving force in rocketing the Bitcoin price.<\/p>\n

One psuedonymous crypto analyst drew attention to Grayscale’s attempt<\/a> at “corning the Bitcoin market” by saying it’s only a matter of time before BTC price reacts accordingly.<\/p>\n

But, price action has failed to respond according to expectations.<\/p>\n
