It seems like you’re observing a shift in market dynamics. While historically, increased Google searches often correlate with rising prices, the current bullish trend may indicate that institutional investors are driving the market instead of the general public.
This could mean that everyday investors haven’t fully engaged yet, potentially leading to a future surge in searches if they start to FOMO in.
What are your thoughts on the role of institutional investors in the current crypto market?
Topic: How do you interprete this? (Read 600 times)
Just remembered, the last time Google search trends lined up with Bitcoin’s price was during the bull run. Back then, Google searches were used to gauge people’s interest in investing. Recently, it was reported that searches for Bitcoin have dropped, yet the price is still bullish. What’s going on here? When we think of Google searches, it’s usually driven by regular folks. But with the price soaring, could it be that institutional investors are behind the bullish trend, while the general public hasn’t jumped on the hype yet? Or maybe we’ll soon see a surge in searches as people start to FOMO in?
If the current bull is resulting from institutional actions, then I think it's a very good one to hop on because by the time the public will be on it, the trend must have been exhausted and the institutions will be selling so what will be if them will be that they are going to be selling which will lead to a supposed deep momentarily but if you have been on now, you too should be taking profits at the time, usually that's how the system works so for institutions to make profits, the push the price up to the point the market looks very attractive and bring in the general public where by FOMO is created them they sell off and make some good profits off the moves. 
This is very simple, if the search for Bitcoin on Google dropped, it signified that quite a good number of Google search users already know about Bitcoin
My guess is it is because they are now aware that prices won't be displayed anymore on the search results, so they just stopped doing it. Even me, I don't do it anymore but I'm still quite disappointed of what happened. Anyways, I read an article last time about the real cause of it. Something has to do with a website. I mean if Google just display everything on their home screen, other platforms may look useless because people won't have a reason to visit them anymore. So after all, what Google did is still correct. Bitcoin is not new and many of us already know what it is or where to head if we want something specific about it. It was definitely gone for a time you just didn't notice it because it was for such a short duration. As you have noticed the bitcoin price metric was back. My guess is that google was trying to guage how much noise would result in the disconnection of that price chart, I think they have found that the community is most definitely in favor of it.
A small opinion check from the peeps who use this opportunity from Google.. This thought is good and it's at least the one I can believe into

Previously, Google provided charts displaying the current rates of leading cryptocurrencies, enabling users to check prices anytime. Consequently, this feature enabled users to see real-time or near-real-time price charts for Bitcoin without the need to navigate to another financial site or platform.

I didn't notice anything as such when searched on the google ,everything did show up with the price chart ,even without me having to go click on the finance table as mentioned by Don Pedro Dinero.
Maybe this could be some sort of setting with your browser or error you've been unable to detect.

I guess it has been restored because it was not like that before. I usually use Google to check the price and never need to click on the finance icon to get the price. But it changed a few days ago that you cannot see the price on the first page. But after seeing this thread I checked and saw that it has been restored to the first page. Maybe it was a technical issue from Google.
Most of the time, I do use google too to search for the price of Bitcoin and it usually show me the price on the first page, even as I saw this topic, I rushed to experiment it and I see that the price is yet shown on the first page. Just like you said, the issue must have been cause by technical problem or just a readjustment by google.

BTC price and btc to usd give me all the info.
EXCEPT when I am logged into chrome with an account that is part of a domain that I support for a customer.
I'm wondering if it's some setting in a Google account perhaps business and / or personal that causes some filtering / changes.
Some odd settings in some ad block or similar software?
But for me same browser. No account it's fine, my account it's fine, small corporate account not there....
All US based if that matters.

If you will find out what was the cause of it, tell us about it - that would be interesting to discover. Thanks for your experience.
For everybody, there are different cases of viewing the chart.Any ways on the long run, we are going to be seeing changes and for sure alot will fall into place and all this limits will definitely fade away along the line.

Looks like the price will still have to cross $70k and stay there for a while to trigger FOMO.
I believe so too, if the price crosses $70k and stays above that, people would know that what's next is $80k and above and that is really high, and it should trigger FOMO amongst people who are waiting for BTC price to be bullish before they buy.It seems to me that the expectations from each new halving are getting higher and higher because the number of those who invest in BTC is obviously increasing - but what people cannot understand is that halving does not mean an automatic increase in the price that some clearly ill-informed media are promoting.
History repeats itself only with some new numbers - those who not so long ago bought under $50k are enjoying the moment, those others are wondering if the bull run has started or is this just another trap.
Just seeing this thread and checking, but i don't see any changes from my own end, everything is as it used to be and i have read through the thread to see that there are users like me. Those who initially experienced the changes should check again, i believe theirs should also be the way it should.

I agree with Don Pedro Dinero that the limitation is probably region-based and perhaps related to some EU restrictions or whatever. In my country, when I google "Bitcoin" or "Bitcoin price", I immediately get the price chart (in local fiat, but it's in USD if I add the word "USD" to my google search), just like before. So the limitation isn't a worldwide policy by Google. Similarly, search results for locations include maps in my country, and I wasn't aware that there were limitations on it elsewhere.

I wouldn't be surprised if it had to do with some EU measure, and I say this as my own speculation, but something similar happened recently. Before, when you searched for a street, it immediately showed you google maps and now, due to an EU antitrust measure, it no longer shows it and you have to search for it from the app or add ‘maps’ to the name of the street you are looking for.
Oh so that's where it went. I've been wondering where it was the past few days since it was my go-to whenever I wanted to quickly check on the market. On checking though, Maybe the live tracking API that Google had just temporarily went down? Rechecked it (both desktop and mobile) and the chart once again appears, so it doesn't seem like Google intentionally moved it or anything. Took quite some time to restore it hence why Mr FUD journalist here probably made the article lol.
Yeah, and it was made basically just to fud about it, in my opinion. Hence way that's the opinion he wrote about: to get attention to what he thought
I don't search Bitcoin price directly instead I searched coinmarketcap from then I go directly to site to check my bitcoin price.
coinmarketcap is a good place to do any similar kind of search about Bitcoin price and any other prices someone would like to check, though searching Bitcoin directly is also nice because it has some unique ways of getting any kind of Bitcoin calculation you want because if you have use the direct search before you will see that it has already calculated what one unit of Bitcoin is worth on your fiat currency and for those who have an amount of money on their fiat to invest on Bitcoin can find it very easy in calculating it from there to know what they would have in Bitcoin after buying but for coinmarketcap the person will have to go through the stress of punching their calculator before they can get the information they need, so if not for the Google adjustment it would have been good for inexperience people to use the direct search in checking the price.

No one should trust what Google does or doesn't show as search results, and if you care about privacy then you should use other search engines. As for regular people, as always, they are the last to react, I have no doubt that this will be the case this time as well. The data on the inflow into spot ETFs say that 2 days ago we had 8400 BTC, and on two occasions another 3700 and 4100 BTC, which means that large investors are intensifying their activities, which is obviously reflected in the price.

Having this in the first page of results was really handy for doing quick conversions. This didn’t just affect Bitcoin but altcoins also. Sometimes I want to know the exchange rate for different coins to see if I’m getting a fair price when buying things with crypto or when doing a swap between different coins. Whatever caused this technical issue, it has already been fixed by Google.
For me, when I write "BTC to USD", it's still working and is not hidden, though, some say that it's just hidden in the "Finance" tab

The guy, who wrote this cryptonews.com article is completely wrong, or maybe he is trying to spread FUD.
I get the Bitcoin to USD real time price chart on both Microsoft Bing Search and Google Search. The guy probably had problems with this laptop or something.
The weird thing is that sometimes when I search for "BTC for USD" on both Google and Bing, the price chart disappears, but it shows up again after a day or two. Maybe Google and Microsoft are updating their search engines and this causes temporary changes in the search results.Jump to:
