While the banks were imploding, Retail bought Crypto at the highest pace since the FTX collapse. Bitcoin is truly working as Satoshi intended.

Truly one of the highlights of just not this week but probably of the whole Crypto history (at least according to me) was this week when Bitcoin started to pump like 30% in three day while the whole banking sector was imploding and there was fear all around.

This just showed that Bitcoin can indeed work as Satoshi Nakamoto wanted it to, a trust-less alternative against banks. We can also strengthen this view as we look on some on-chain data and especially focus on the very people affected by the bank implosions, the retail like us all.

This graph shows how shrimps (0.1BTC to 1BTC) or also known as Retail, were accumulating exactly during the time were banks were imploding at the highest single-day pace since the FTX collapse in November were BTC price was at about $15k-$17k.

Showing how the people that were the most affected by the fear around banks were actually taking Crypto as an alternative, obviously not all of them but we can expect that to be a considerable part of them. Love to see Bitcoin doing what it was intended to, not an inflation-hedge, not a recession hedge but a bank-hedge.
