More and more companies and institutions are investing in bitcoin or adding bitcoin to their reserves. But so far, the world's leading capitalization corporations such as Apple, Amazon or Google...have not made any moves to show that they will buy bitcoin in the near future.
There are still many companies that don't care and don't own bitcoin.

That's because some companies are not willing to take the risk of holding Bitcoin long-term. At least, not yet. But they will sooner or later, as Bitcoin continues to reach new ATHs. They wouldn't to miss the opportunity for profit. Would they? The bad thing about this is that there will be less BTC in the hands of the people. It's all a plan to force people to comply with KYC to buy/sell BTC. Unfortunately, people aren't seeing the big picture. They just want to get rich quick. Satoshi must be grieving with anger with the path Bitcoin has taken lately. Institutionalization = centralization.

At least, we have a few altcoins that have stayed true to Bitcoin's original ideals/principles. Monero is being considered as a more attractive option than Bitcoin due to its embracement of privacy and freedom. Since it's a privacy coin, chances of getting institutionalized (by having its own spot ETFs) are slim. I'd convert most of my BTC holdings into XMR, just to be safe.

Sooner or later they will join but I don't think it will happen in the near future. I think the reason they haven't gotten in yet is because bitcoin isn't really as safe as other assets yet. Regulatory risks as regulations can be reversed at any time or bitcoin is volatile and does not fit their investment criteria. Or maybe they are focused on other things, bitcoin is not their current priority.

Even though bitcoin no longer serves its original purpose, I don't think Satoshi will be sad because thanks to bitcoin, he owns hundreds of billions of dollars and becomes one of the richest people in the world.

Honestly , I also doubt you or anyone will convert your bitcoin to XMR or Zcash , and let’s admit it, we care more about profit than anything else.
