Jan 26, 20269:22 AMNewsroom AI

Bitcoin is confronting broader macroeconomic headwinds that are affecting market momentum, but institutional sentiment remains largely positive according to recent reporting [1].

A Coinbase survey of institutional investors found that about 70% view Bitcoin as undervalued, with respondents citing value in the $85,000–$95,000 range; coverage notes this optimism persists even as Bitcoin lags some traditional safe havens and equities [3][4].

The survey was conducted among key institutional participants and is being cited across multiple outlets as a sign of continued professional investor interest in Bitcoin despite near-term macro pressures [3][2].

Institutional bullishness, as reflected in the Coinbase survey, coexists with macro headwinds — a dynamic that leaves near-term price direction uncertain while indicating sustained professional demand [1][3].
