According to TradingLatino Director Jaime Merino, the fall in Bitcoin (BTC) prices has not changed the structural vision of the market.
In a statement provided to CriptoNoticias, the analyst highlighted: Digital assets “are in a zone of controlled opportunity, not panic.”
“Bitcoin cycles tend to have 20-30% corrections within broader uptrends, and that’s what we’re seeing right now,” Merino explains. For specialists, as long as the price exceeds $99,000; Technical structure “remains positive”.
The weekly chart shared by Merino shows that Bitcoin holds major support in the USD 99,000-100,000 area within consolidation.
Analysts highlight the area as a strategic accumulation point, We expect a rebound towards USD 112,000-125,000. Meanwhile, the overall trend remains bullish and subdued. Additionally, consider that there could be a new bullish leg between USD 125,000 and USD 147,000.
In general, Merino believes that the current market moment is: should not be interpreted as a change in trendBut as a natural stage of consolidation in the midst of a broader growth cycle. This is despite BTC falling over 4% in just 5 days, as seen below.
Bitcoin Accumulation Points and Educational Warnings
The expert emphasizes that this phase of apparent price decline represents a strategic opportunity for those who understand the dynamics of the Bitcoin cycle.
But he warns of structural phenomena that could redefine the balance of power within ecosystems. Expansion of institutional control.
In his view, while institutional investors will control liquidity, “sovereignty of Bitcoin will remain in the hands of those who control its keys.”
Considering what has happened so far, this is more 4 million Bitcoins will be distributed to different types of companies. Bitcoin ETF issuers and listed companies are the entities that accumulate the most of this digital currency. In the following graph:
Now, Merino explains, the company’s presence is growing. This does not mean that the decentralized nature of Bitcoin is lost.However, it is a result of the educational disparity between retail and institutional hiring.
Institutional control will increase, not because Bitcoin no longer belongs to the people, but because education on how to use it progresses slower than corporate adoption. The challenge of our time is to bridge that gap. The goal is for more people to learn to own their own Bitcoin before the market is fully built by large institutions.

Institutional Adoption: New Financial Infrastructure
Merino’s analysis is consistent with recent diagnostics from analytics firm CoinShares, which observes a significant shift in the relationship between institutions and digital assets.
According to the company, BTC adoption is no longer limited to passive exposure through financial products and is moving towards: Directly integrated into the infrastructure of the global financial system.
CoinShares points out that banks and technology companies are using decentralized networks to improve the efficiency of payment and custody processes.
It also highlights the importance of the new U.S. regulatory framework. This, along with the rise of spot Bitcoin ETFs, marks what CoinShares calls the “second phase” of adoption. It’s programmable fluidity and interoperable infrastructure.
Merino’s analysis and CoinShares’ analysis suggest that Bitcoin and the rest of digital assets will is entering a new phase of integration with the global financial system.
As institutional investors tighten their grip on liquidity, Merino argues: Individual sovereignty remains the basis of the system. “Those who control the keys will control Bitcoin,” the analyst emphasizes.
