BITCOIN SET TO REACH $100K SOON AND BECOME THE WORLD’S RESERVE ASSET, SAYS NEW BLOOMBERG REPORT!!!!!

➡️ REPLAY: 5 *MORE* COINS TO $5 MILLION: http://5coins.cryptonewsalerts.net

A user poll conducted by Kraken has revealed that most BTC traders are expecting the Bitcoin price to break into new all-time highs before 2021.

The poll analyzed the responses of 400 “VIP” crypto traders on Kraken: 41% of respondents described themselves as “investors”, 40% identified as “traders”, and 15% as “institutions” — with the remaining 4% comprising payment processors, crypto exchanges and miners.

84% of respondents manage less than $10 million in capital, while 11% manage between $10 million and $50 million.

The remaining 6% is divided evenly between traders managing from $50 million to $100 million and traders mobilizing more than $100 million.

The survey found that the average BTC price target for 2020 is $22,866.

However, traders do not expect Ethereum (ETH) to also see new highs — with $810 comprising the average price target for ETH. 

The overall market sentiment is slightly bullish, with 44% of participants stating that the cryptocurrency markets are in a bull market, while 22% believe we are in a bear trend and 34% stating they are unsure.

There was little consensus among traders as to what will accelerate crypto’s growth over the next 12 months, with the top answer comprising “adoption” with 19%.

Bitcoin’s upcoming halving came second with 15%, followed by political “conflict” with 11%, “fear of missing out” with 11%, and economic “crisis” with 9%. 

Respondents came to a greater agreement regarding the major threats to the industry — with 32% of participants agreeing that “regulation” comprises the biggest risk to crypto, followed by “fraud, hacks, scams” with 23%.

Bitcoin Price Drops to $6.1K Shortly After Equities Markets Close Red After trading in the $6,450 to $6,850 range for the past eight days, Bitcoin (BTC) price finally made a larger move, this time to the downside, as the digital asset dropped 8.72% to a daily low at $6,068. 

The move somewhat mirrors the performance of traditional markets, which also closed the day with losses.

The Dow closed with a 915 point loss, the S&P 500 pulled back 3.37% and the Nasdaq was down 3.79%. 

The break below $6,550 pulled the price below the ascending trendline and the $6,450 support.

Traders had anticipated that a sharp move was on the cards after the price had traded sideways on declining volume for the majority of the week, also failing to push above $6,850 and flip the resistance to support.

Kraken’s 2020 Sentiment Survey: Where We Are & What’s To Come

Bill Miller, chairman and chief investment officer of Miller Value Partners, is sharing his crypto investment strategy and why he’s bullish on Bitcoin (BTC).

In a FutureProof interview, the head of the investment firm that manages $3 billion in assets describes the start of his journey as a BTC believer.

“I got involved in Bitcoin around 2013. It was trading at around $200 or so when I started buying it. Then it ran up to around $1,100 to $1,200 and then Mt. Gox collapsed. [Bitcoin] collapsed all the way back to $200 again in 2014. I began to buy it again… My average cost is about $300 [a coin].”

Miller says there are several fundamental reasons why he became an early adopter and long-term advocate of the world’s leading cryptocurrency.

“The nature of what it was trying to do, it had many different ways to win. My view was if any of those various things – it became a currency, it became a payment system, it became a non-correlated asset – any of those things, much less all of them, would lead to a very dramatic move in the underlying price.

That was also helped along by the fact that it is limited to 21 million Bitcoin and it is decentralized. It is not able to be tampered with or debased.”

From an investment standpoint, Miller says Bitcoin continues to offer a very favorable risk-reward ratio.

He’s an advocate for a small 1% to 2% portfolio allocation to BTC.

In the long run, he believes he could earn a 1000x or more return on his BTC investment, which would place Bitcoin at $300,000.

“I could make 100x of my money. I could make 1,000x, maybe more than that. I can only lose 100%… I still have it. I haven’t sold any Bitcoin… Back in the 70s and early 80s, people were talking about putting 5% of your assets in gold because it’s a hedge.

It’s an insurance policy in case inflation comes back again as it did in the 1970s. I would say that if that’s a sensible thing to do, then, certainly to have 1 to 2% of your assets in Bitcoin makes great sense here.”

The experienced investor also makes a unique case as to why Bitcoin is less risky now compared to when it was trading below $100.

“For most assets that you buy, the more they go up in price, the less value there is to be extracted out of it, and the riskier it becomes.

Bitcoin is in an unusual position of being the exact opposite of that. It was very risky when it was trading at a dollar, $5, or $10. It could have easily disappeared.”

➡️ Leverage OPM (Other People’s Money): http://100.cryptonewsalerts.net

Bitcoin has every possibility to grow its market size by 15-20X within the next 15 months, according to BTC bull Anthony Pompliano of New York-based hedge fund Morgan Creek Digital.

“My base case is approximately 10x to $100,000 and the bull case is around $250,000 per bitcoin,” he predicted after assessing all the said catalysts.

The founder said in a note to investors that they should put 1-10 percent of their investable capital into Bitcoin.

Recalling his own portfolio’s 50 percent exposure in the cryptocurrency, Pomp cited a string of upside catalysts that would benefit anyone who invests-in/holds the 11-year old financial asset.

The first optimistic fundamental in line was the Federal Reserve and its unprecedented monetary policies.

The US central bank in April cut its interest rate to near-zero to boost lending amid the coronavirus pandemic.

In its recent remarks, the Fed vowed to keep the rates lower for the foreseeable future.

More tailwinds Bitcoin’s bullish bias came from the US government’s $3 trillion stimulus package.

Because of it, the Fed’s balance sheet expanded by 75 percent since the beginning of 2020.

The bank further announced that it is targeting a 2 percent-plus inflation level.

“The average investor fears inflation right now, regardless of whether we [actually] see that inflation or not,” wrote Mr. Pompliano, adding that the “fear has driven significant capital flows into inflation-hedge assets (Gold, Bitcoin, Real estate, etc.).”

“The combination of the Fed’s asset price manipulation and inflation fears has driven gold and Bitcoin to drastically outperform equities and other commodities.”

Bitcoin rose by around 50 percent on a year-to-date timeframe. Pomp predicted a further upside for the cryptocurrency due to growing demand from the institutional investors.

For instance, Fidelity Investments, a Boston firm with $3.3 trillion worth of assets-under-management, favored a 1-5 percent allocation to Bitcoin in any portfolio.

Meanwhile, Stone Ridge, a $10 billion asset management firm, revealed that it now owns $15 million worth of BTC tokens.

Billionaire investor Paul Tudor Jones put 1-2 percent of his $22 billion portfolios into Bitcoin Futures.

Also, many pensions funds gained exposure in the cryptocurrency.

Pomp’s letter highlighted corporations that purchased Bitcoin as a reserve asset for part or majority of their treasury.

That included MicroStrategy, a $1.2 billion market cap firm that put 85 percent of its $500 million balance sheet ($425M) into Bitcoin, and global payments firm Square that last week purchased $50 million worth of BTC tokens.

“The demand outlook is strong, and it shows signs of actually accelerating into the first half of 2021,” added Mr. Pompliano.

The fund manager later discussed the Bitcoin market’s potential supply shock.

With a 21 million hard cap and 18.4 million units already in circulation, Mr. Pompliano noted that Bitcoin’s scarcity against its rising demand would act as another bullish tailwind.

In other trending Bitcoin News today:

Bitcoin pioneer Max Keiser went on a Crypto Twitter rant predicting a $28K short term Bitcoin target along with a $400K BTC price target for the long term…

“There is strong evidence to suggest Bitcoin futures traders are manipulating BTC down to give institutions a chance to load up on physical BTC cheap before the break to $28,000”

“The (temporary) Bitcoin price suppression scheme is a godsend for poor people to stack sats *now* before retail liquidity dries up and the price vaults to gold-parity levels around $400,000”
