Can institutional investors save Bitcoin from further decline?

Seeing the image above, it's mind blowing to see all those hundred of millions doesn't even influence bitcoin's price that much, if the market is bearish then it's bearish.
It is to me perfectly shows that bitcoin is an asset with real and deep orderbook. These SAFU funds are cultivated very well by allocating all of them to buy bitcoin, chances are it will grow to several billions in the future.

If many other exchanges and large institutions do the same, could we not "see you at $40,000" and instead see Bitcoin rise above $100,000 this year?

Institutional investors will look for the right moment to enter. They make large purchases, allowing the market to move even against the trend, albeit for a short time. But institutional investors won't just choose any moment to enter. If the price of Bitcoin drops to $40k, wouldn't they also be happy to buy at that price? 
I think it won't be easy to get out of the current situation quickly. I probably won't be in too much of a hurry to see $100k this year. We might stay longer in a boring market.

Can institutional investors save Bitcoin from further decline?

You are living in a delusion, they are the ones who are currently causing it. They emptied their bags at the peak and now they want the lowest price to fill them again. Those who believe that some CZ with a billion $ will save them obviously don't know that it is so insignificant for BTC that it won't move the price even by 1%.

Remember that this decline is also desired by institutional investors because they have already sold their holdings at the beginning when the ATH price is above $100k and regularly do so.

That's right, I'm hearing more and more about the theory that “Bitcoin paper” has been created with options, futures, etc., which allows institutional players to artificially drive down the price, rather than through pure Bitcoin supply and demand. Something similar happened decades ago with gold.

I never doubted that they wouldn't find a way to set things up the way they wanted, and I just wonder what else they have planned. My opinion is that their goal now is to gain as much influence as possible over mining companies (and it's no secret that BlackRock has been buying shares in them for years), and that they will try to influence some developers.

I sincerely hope I'm wrong, but cruel capitalism tramples everything in its path for profit.

If the stock market starts to fall, Bitcoin could fall too.

I've seen the common expression "see you at $40,000" in many threads here lately. But Binance has decided to shift its SAFU fund from dollars to Bitcoin.

If many other exchanges and large institutions do the same, could we not "see you at $40,000" and instead see Bitcoin rise above $100,000 this year?

Or do they need more time and a further fall to accumulate Bitcoin again?

I don't think that anyone can save the market from further decline. We are already in the bear market, and by that the price is going to go down whether we like or not. Even if this so called whales are going to buy, sooner or later they will be outnumbered by the sellers because they are afraid that the market is going to decline.

In any case, majority of us retail should take advantage of what is happening, and don't think about saving the market itself. What I'm saying is that this is a golden opportunity as the market is on a cycle. So continue to save and buy and be a long term holder, simply as that. There are things that is beyond our control.

We should understand that this is bear run and we're not expecting any magic to happen all of a sudden that will make Bitcoin price to suddenly skyrocket past $100k, it can happen but the chances in this season is quite slim. I don't know if institutional investors can save further decline at this juncture unless they pump extraordinary funds into accumulation but I'm sure that they are being cautious too. This is not the first bear run and from it's history it always recovers, the recovery will likely be when every investors that are waiting for Bitcoin to hit rock bottom before buying can no longer wait anymore. While the wait is ongoing smart investors can enter the market and be taking advantage of buying the dip.

There is something you musg know about the Bitcoin and it circled period or season as many may have known about it. Bitcoin has two phase, respectively we have bullish market, and the Bearish market, this happens after one another. To me, I have also took it to be it's principles that it usually operates on and is something already enacted as laws or principles which it would keep occuring every single moments.

However, if institutional investors and private investors decide to empty themselves to invest in Bitcoin in order to sustain the price at some certain levels would definitely fails them because Bitcoin needs it complete it's circle before it would rise again. This makes it entirely different from other coin out there and the rest depends on its movement and no one can control it.

That is why it's always advisable to invest during the bear market because that is the only moment you would get it so cheaper, and as I know there were the chances many people has been praying for the market to drop so that they wouldn't be that hesitant to increase portfolio that is also another reason why most investors stick with Bitcoin in a time like this than altcoin. After bear market most coin hardly survive because lot of people had already dump those coins to Bitcoin to retain and sustain their investments.

If the stock market starts to fall, Bitcoin could fall too.

Sometimes, there's correlation for both markets and others too. But there are times that they don't.

I've seen the common expression "see you at $40,000" in many threads here lately. But Binance has decided to shift its SAFU fund from dollars to Bitcoin.

Are you discouraged by those? if you've seen discussions like that and you're starting to get scared about it, it's best that you shouldn't go further with those write ups and avoid them. Protect your peace.

If many other exchanges and large institutions do the same, could we not "see you at $40,000" and instead see Bitcoin rise above $100,000 this year?

Or do they need more time and a further fall to accumulate Bitcoin again?

Know that the market is cyclic for Bitcoin and even if we'll see a lot of good speculations telling that we'll rise above $100k soon, that's true. But only time will tell when exactly it can happen.
