I am very sure that so many companies are holding Cryptocurrency ,they are buying and stocking up .
They do not even make noise about it.
Secondly,, NASDAQ coming into the Cryptocurrency market is a welcomed development ....as it would increase adoption rate significantly.
The growth of Cryptocurrency would always be exponential.

I am of this opinion as well.
I believe that they take advantage of the anonymity of the networks that exist in the blockchain industry. When the time that the bitcoin price will go in all-time high there will be many corporations that will start declaring that they are in favor of cryptocurrencies.

Buying in without any major market movement will have one believe they are not involved. However, these Institutions have their stakes in bitcoin already. No one will come out open and say they are in just to keep on the price below and accumulate more.

The big holders and the investor are still in this crypto market,and they continue their competition every day.in fact we operate bitcoin value therefore, Bitcoin value can return every time to fare.
So i think Any action that should be excited is not going to go,then it will not be a good side.Keep pace with the better for the crypto market,and keep we are like anything trade,invest,hold as you choice.

This would be true that everything would be done silently as even they know that it is the future and if one has to take benefit of it then they will need to hold it. Also they do not let know anyone about it and would be doing secretly and holding a huge qty of different coins I think so.

Due to ETF, many big institutions are silently holding for the long term because already many companies start holding the Bitcoin in the market. We can able to see them in blockchain but we don't know exactly who is holding because they will distribute the coins to the different address.

Do you mean government institutions?Sure,they often confiscate large amounts of bitcoins from some criminals and sell them using auctions.Do I think that they secretly buy large amounts of crypto?No way.
If the governments ever start buying btc,the price will skyrocket pretty fast.

The FBI is known to have been holding large amounts of confiscated coins and then auctioning them off (as you said). And some of their agents had even been caught while trying to steal a few coins now and then, and probably many more got away with that (so much for Bitcoin not having any real value, huh). But I agree, there is no motive for governments to buy bitcoins apart from small amounts for sting operations and that kind of thing (just like they are buying drugs, firearms, etc). Rumors that, say, Russia is going to buy 10B dollar worth of bitcoins next month (or whatever) are likely meant to boost prices and interest but nothing beyond that

Though I'm not sure if it helps

I think many people have already held bitcoin especially now the decline of bitcoin itself is also quite large so it's likely that many people have already held bitcoin to be able to get profits later

If it's like this, then what is the main reason for them doing that?
shouldn't it be if they really support crypto, of course they don't need to keep it a secret?

Op is talking about institutional investors and not we the hodl.  He is refer to big and international financial institutions like banks and big hedge fund companies. I strongly believe that big financial institutions are holding bitcoin but in secret.

have you ever asked if some companies are seriously investing in Cryptos and still not talking about it?
They way crypto platform for Institutional client is been developed by the day is become an eye opener that there is serious interest
by companies but I guess anonymity is prefered

Huobi Launches a trading platform for institution https://bitcoinexchangeguide.com/huobi-crypto-exchange-to-launch-institutional-trading-to-a-limited-group/

So do you think companies like NASDAQ is good for the market https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-11-27/nasdaq-is-said-to-pursue-bitcoin-futures-despite-plunging-prices

SO do you think Bitcoin will be the future all sometimes fade away?

I don't think most of the Bitcoin in circulation are owned by only individual as there are so many institution that own a huge number of Bitcoin and other crypto currency and they not to announce it to that public on how much worth of crypto currency they are holding.

The need for bitcoin as well as the growth of bitcoin is analyzed by a large set of institutions. When common man has understood about its need, these large scale firms were also much aware about it. Predicting the growth surely large scale firms have hidden investments on bitcoin which is true.

The truth remain that we have several whales  individuals and organisation  in the CRYPTO space that have invested  in BTC and are waiting for an increase in the adoption rate before they can use BTC as a currency and for transaction.

Yeah. I read an article on one website which stated that even though we might be in bear market, last year was one of the year which saw a very great adoption of the use of cryptocurrencies especially Bitcoin. But the reason why we don't see it reflecting on exchanges is because they purchase from OTCs not on exchange sites.

I only think positively about the institution, if the institution is quietly the holder of a large number of Bitcoins, I think that is a good thing, because more and more people will buy Bitcoin, the faster the price of Bitcoin will rise again.

We came into strong anonymity and we can certainly hold a huge amount of BTC untraceable to the others. If they are holding of that huge amount  just be sure that they'll holding it for good and not for illegal activities. And I'm afraid also that they'll could be the target of hackers.

not for illegal activities will certainly be healthy growth for bitcoin. therefore even though there are institutions that hold a large number of btc, of course this is not a problem as long as it is used for positive activities, thus making the btc circulation healthy too, so that more and more governments will legalize it

It is very possible for an institution to hold a large amount of hold. because bitcoin is currently experiencing a deep decline I think many people take the opportunity to buy bitcoin

fo investment institution like JP Morgan and othere finance firm , i am sure most of them holding bitcoin now in their portofolio.this is best chance for them to earn money if they able to spread positive news in market now.
