New Investors Holding Up The Market

Billionaire Mike Novogratz was on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” to talk about the crypto market. Novogratz said that new investors were the reason bitcoin and ethereum price had held their high value. New investor enthusiasm has been on the rise since the bull market first slid into full gear at the beginning of 2021. But the recent turn of events in the crypto market has triggered a new wave of entrants into the space.

Novogratz puts the current crypto global wealth percentage at 0.5%, only a small number compared to other financial markets. Nonetheless, an impressive percentage is given that the crypto market is yet to enter its teenage years. The billionaire expects the percentage to rise well above 0.5% as more investors move into the crypto space.

Speaking of new investors coming into the market and holding up the prices, the billionaire had this to say; “It’s holding because of just new money coming in. There was $17 billion of new venture capital that went into the first half of the year. It’s just a tremendous inflow of both talent and money.”

Expecting A Parabolic move

Novogratz’s firm Galaxy Digital is a well-known investor in the blockchain and cryptocurrency industry. Given this, the billionaire has always been bullish on the crypto market and has been vocal about his bullish stance. During his interview, the CEO revealed that he was expecting the crypto market to break new all-time highs through the fourth quarter of the year.

“Not to sound like the ever bullish guy that I sometimes am accused of being, but I literally see a scenario where we take out the highs in Bitcoin and we have one of these parabolic moves in all the crypto going into the fourth quarter.”

Novogratz explained the reasoning behind his prediction using a racehorse analogy. He compared the movement of the crypto market to “the horse that turns the corner at the end” that ends up winning the race.]]> Mon, 11 Oct 2021 03:01:58 GMT https://gchyipmonitor.com/ https://gchyipmonitor.com/news/id/52/ https://gchyipmonitor.com/news/id/52/

As per the latest Bloomberg report, there’s every possibility that four Bitcoin ETFs could be coming ahead this month. SEC Chairman Gary Gensler has recently suggested a possibility of getting a Bitcoin ETF that tracks Bitcoin futures. Meaning, these ETFs will hold bitcoin futures offered by the CME Group rather than the underlying asset.

Thus, Bloomberg reports that there are four such Bitcoin Futures ETF proposals that can get the SEC greenlight ahead this month. James Seyffart, an ETF analyst with Bloomberg Intelligence said:

“We are pretty bullish on approval here. We just can’t see Gensler and the SEC going out of their way to state positive comments about a 1940-act Bitcoin futures ETF at the end of September and then denying all of them less than a month later.”

ProShares Bitcoin Futures ETF first In the Line

If the SEC follows the usual process without discriminating between different products, the Bitcoin futures ETF application from ProShares could be the first to get the SEC nod. The ProShares application has a clause that would allow its funds to hold other Bitcoin instruments.

Another player in the line that holds a good chance of getting the Bitcoin futures ETFs approval is Valkyrie Investments. Unlike ProShares, the proposed ETF from Valkyrie will only hold bitcoin futures. Speaking to Bloomberg, Nate Geraci, president of the advisory firm the ETF Store said:

“Given that ETF issuers have been tirelessly pursuing Bitcoin ETFs for over eight years now, it seems somewhat disingenuous for the SEC to encourage more filings at this point only to disapprove them. Approving futures-based Bitcoin ETFs seems like an easy way for the SEC and Chair Gensler to get a ‘win’ in terms of appearing forward-thinking on crypto.”


As of press time, Bitcoin is trading at $54,575 with a market cap of $1.028 trillion. If the SEC approves a Bitcoin ETF, BTC has a high chance of going to $100K by the end of this year.]]> Mon, 11 Oct 2021 03:01:16 GMT https://gchyipmonitor.com/ https://gchyipmonitor.com/news/id/51/ https://gchyipmonitor.com/news/id/51/

A recent CoinShares survey has echoed the sentiment that has been held by investors in the market for a while now. It showed that number of investors who believe Ethereum is set to outpace Bitcoin is over twice the number of investors who are bullish on the growth of bitcoin. Lately, investors have been moving out of their bitcoin positions in favor of ethereum, and the CoinShares survey shows that this might only be the beginning.

Investors Want Ethereum

The CoinShares survey shed light on investors’ sentiment around the top crypto projects in the market. When asked, 42% of respondents said that they saw the most compelling growth outlook for Ethereum. While 18% said that they saw a compelling growth outlook for bitcoin. The survey showed that Ethereum was regarded as the project to grow the most in the coming years.

This does not although take away anything from bitcoin. Blockchain structuring has allowed Ethereum to be at the forefront of one of the most important investment spaces in crypto; the DeFi market. The bitcoin blockchain is gearing up to compete in this space against the likes of Ethereum and Solana with the launch of smart contracts on the network. Expanding the crypto-asset’s utility beyond just its monetary policy.

Investors Reveal Reasons For Investing

When asked what the biggest motivator for investing in cryptocurrencies was, the top answer was surprisingly not the value of the assets themselves or even diversification. 35% of respondents said that they were investing in the market because the assets were speculative. Only 25% said they used cryptocurrencies as a way to diversify their portfolios. With about 15% investing for the value of the assets.

Respondents also said that regulation, restrictions, and volatility were the biggest hindrance to investing in the crypto market. Regulation also made the top when respondents were asked about the key risks associated with digital assets. A combined 58% said government bans and regulations currently pose the biggest threat to the digital assets market.

Despite growing interest from institutional investors, individual investors still dominate the cryptocurrency market. 45% of investors said they were invested in the market individually. While Europe and the Middle East possess the largest amount of domiciled funds, with about 70% saying their funds were domiciled in the region.]]> Mon, 11 Oct 2021 02:59:45 GMT https://gchyipmonitor.com/ https://gchyipmonitor.com/news/id/49/ https://gchyipmonitor.com/news/id/49/
