Bitcoin (BTC) Demand Soars, Outpacing Supply by Nearly 7x

On Monday, May 13, 2025, the Bitcoin market witnessed an extraordinary imbalance in supply and demand

The Bitcoin market displayed a massive imbalance in supply and demand on Monday, May 13, 2025, according to data shared by JAN3 Financial.

According to the shared data, BTC ETF demand outpaced the available supply by a factor of 6.94.

This disparity, visualized in a chart provided by Farside, highlights an intensifying supply squeeze as institutional demand, particularly via exchange-traded funds (ETFs), continues to outstrip current issuance and liquidity.

As supply tightens and demand accelerates, the conditions are primed for upward price pressure, reinforcing Bitcoin's scarcity narrative.

This new report from Bitcoin Magazine follows an earlier prediction by Anthony Scaramucci, founder of Scaramucci Paul, that Bitcoin could reach $80,000 by the end of the year.

According to a recent report by Russia’s Central Bank, Bitcoin is set to become the leading asset by 2025, potentially reaching $80,000 per unit.

This prediction comes as part of the bank’s broader assessment of the macroeconomic landscape and financial markets.

The report, titled "Central Bank Economic Outlook," also mentions the possibility of the U.S. Federal Reserve pivoting to reduce interest rates in the second half of the year.

This shift in monetary policy could further fuel cryptocurrency demand, especially with the growing institutional interest in Bitcoin ETFs.

The significant disparity between BTC ETF demand and available supply is expected to create even greater demand and price pressure in the coming months.

The chart, created by Farside and shared by JAN3, vividly showcases the massive queue of buyers waiting for minimal BTC supply.

This scene unfolds as Bitcoin trades close to all-time highs, making it increasingly difficult for investors to exclude the asset from their portfolios.
