Bitcoin Updates: Institutional Blockchain Adoption and Major Whale Transfers Indicate a New Era for Tokenized Assets

- Whale deposits $3.36M in BANK tokens on Bitget, signaling renewed interest in tokenized assets as the exchange expands into equity-linked futures. - JPMorgan and DBS unveil tokenized deposit framework for 24/7 cross-bank transactions, while 21shares launches first U.S. crypto ETFs under the '40 Act. - Bitcoin ETFs see $1.7B outflow, but whale accumulation and U.S. government reopening boost BTC to $102,708 amid cautious on-chain profit-taking. - Pre-market crypto stocks rise, reflecting growing integrati

Within the past hour, a whale transferred 52.5 million BANK tokens to Bitget, an amount worth roughly $3.36 million,

indicating a resurgence of interest

in tokenized assets as both institutional and retail capital flows shift. This transaction coincides with Bitget’s latest move into tokenized equity offerings,

following the exchange’s announcement of

new perpetual futures for LLY, MA, and UNH stock indices, pushing cumulative trading volumes to $3 billion. This development highlights the increasing appetite for onchain access to traditional stocks, with Bitget providing up to 10x leverage and 24/5 trading availability

based on market research

Major institutions are also ramping up blockchain integration.

As per joint statements

JPMorgan

and DBS introduced a tokenization model for interbank deposits, designed to support continuous, interoperable onchain transactions. This project, part of a larger trend toward tokenized real-world assets (RWA), aims to enhance efficiency in institutional payments and minimize fragmentation in cross-border settlements

according to reports

. At the same time,

21shares debuted

the first U.S. crypto index ETFs under the '40 Act: the FTSE Crypto 10 Index ETF (TTOP) and its Bitcoin-free version (TXBC), giving investors broad exposure to top cryptocurrencies. These funds are tailored for both institutional and retail participants

looking for regulated entry

into this fast-changing sector.

Market sentiment remains mixed. Although

Bitcoin

ETFs saw $1.7 billion in outflows,

large whale transactions have mitigated

the impact on prices. Major holders (with more than 10,000 BTC)

have accumulated over 36,000 BTC

in recent weeks, helping to keep Bitcoin above $100,000 despite market swings. The conclusion of a 43-day U.S. government shutdown further boosted risk appetite, with Bitcoin climbing to $102,708 as investors looked forward to regulatory guidance and potential Fed rate cuts

according to analysts

. Still,

blockchain data indicates

a cautious approach: long-term investors are slowly taking profits, signaling a mature market phase rather than panic selling. Experts link this to investor fatigue and year-end tax planning, but

institutional interest in crypto equities

and ETFs points to continued strength beneath the surface.

U.S. crypto-related stocks showed gains in pre-market trading,

with SharpLink Gaming jumping

3.28% and Coinbase advancing 0.92%. These trends underscore the growing integration of crypto with traditional finance, as companies like Bitget and 21shares

connect digital assets and equity markets
