The bitcoin supply squeeze explained in a few sentences and one chart
272,000 Bitcoin bought in the last 28 days by ETFs. Meanwhile only 25,200 $BTC were mined! Yes, GBTC outflows are still a concern, but at some point that will have to end. Assuming this number stays consistent (or possibly even increases) with roughly ~2 million BTC on exchanges (based on today's liquidity), that would mean that in about 8 months time there would literally be ZERO BTC available for sale!!! And not mention the halving in 3 months will cut this amount to just 12,600 BTC mined in the same amount of time. (Source: CryptoZombie)
