Bitcoin reaches new all-time high – the comeback of private investors is approaching!

On July 13, 2025, Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of over $119,000. This development shows that the current market cycle is experiencing a controlled and steady upward movement, with no signs of overheating. One aspect that stands out, however, is the lack of widespread FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) sentiment among investors. The market is obviously dominated by institutional investors, while private investors tend to wait and are not yet showing strong interest. These observations are made by wallstreet-online.de divided.

Analysis suggests that a return of the retail segment is imminent, but retail investors typically only appear to become active at new highs, which has historically been the case at $150,000. Nic, co-founder of CoinBureau, has questioned the assumption that capital movements from Bitcoin will not flow into altcoins. Emotional decisions by retail investors could lead to capital rotation into these altcoins.

Declining interest and new trends

Interestingly, a look at external indicators such as Google Trends shows lower public interest compared to previous peak periods. Current searches for “Bitcoin” and “Crypto” have increased over the last week, but are still considered below levels seen in previous bull markets. Retail investors appear to be less active at the moment, according to a report from cointelegraph.com which points out that search interest for Bitcoin is very low at 23 out of 100 compared to the high in May 2021.

Additionally, analysis from CryptoQuant has shown that although retail investors are slowly returning, they are being outperformed by larger investors. As of September 21, 2021, daily transfers by Bitcoin retail investors were $326 million, the lowest since 2020. Still, previous trends show that low retail investor engagement often precedes Bitcoin price increases.

Technological innovations and new projects

In the context of this market development, a new crypto project called Snorter stands out, which offers a trading bot via Telegram. This solution allows users to make purchases, sales and set stop losses directly in the chat. There is also the option to use the in-house token SNORT, which reduces trading fees and offers staking options. Of the 60 percent of tokens reserved for the presale, over $1.8 million has already been raised in the early financing phase.

In summary, the crypto market is currently showing an interesting dynamic where institutional investors are the driving force, while retail investors may be waiting for the bull markets to return. At the same time, developments point to innovative approaches aimed at improving the trading environment for investors.
