Bitcoin Closes April Up 12% as Strategy's MSTR Posts First Positive Month Since July

Bitcoin experienced a significant 12% price increase throughout April, marking a strong month for the digital asset. This rally coincided with 'Strategy,' presumably MicroStrategy, achieving its first positive month since July and notably expanding its Bitcoin holdings by an impressive $4.1 billion during the same period. However, despite these strong market performance indicators and substantial institutional investment, analysis of on-chain data suggests that a portion of these recent gains might be driven by speculative activity.
