“Mythical market makers” controlling Bitcoin — but who really drives BTC’s price in 2025? 🤔

I think that it’s not just one player — it’s a mix of whales, developers, governments, and macro forces:

🐋 Whales still move volume, especially in illiquid markets — institutions like BlackRock and Strategy together control 6% of BTC’s supply.

🛠 Developers shape the protocol — upgrades like Taproot, Ordinals, and upcoming OP_CAT / covenants create new demand and narratives.

🏛 Governments & regulators can’t control Bitcoin, but they move sentiment — ETF approvals, wallet surveillance, and rate cuts all influence flows.

📊 Macro factors — liquidity, interest rates, and dollar strength — define the risk appetite.

In 2025, Bitcoin’s price is less about one central force and more about constant negotiation between institutions, builders, traders, and regulators — all amplified by retail sentiment.

It’s not manipulation. It’s a decentralized tug-of-war.
