Despite the more recent moderate pace, Michael Saylor remains optimistic on Bitcoin’s trajectory, saying in a CNBC interview last week: “As we work through macro resistance, we’ll actually see Bitcoin start to move up smartly again toward the end of the year.”Saylor's thesis is also supported by broader institutional behavior: Wallets holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC accumulated 83,000 BTC in September alone, reflecting rising structural demand.Helius Medical (HSDT) to Rebrand as ‘Solana Company’Aside from BTC and ETH, institutional interest in altcoins is also gaining momentum.Helius Medical Technologies (NASDAQ: HSDT) has received board approval to rebrand as Solana Company, while retaining its stock ticker.
