BITCOIN IS LIKELY TO REACH $115K BY AUGUST AND $74K BY MAY 15TH SAYS CRYPTO TITAN PANTERA CAPITAL!!

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.

Bitcoin Will Likely Grow 15-20x in Next 15 Months: Fund Manager

https://cointelegraph.com/news/calm-before-the-storm-analyst-says-20k-bitcoin-possible-in-3-months

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

Bitcoin (BTC) hitting a $1 trillion market cap by 2025 is “conservative,” and those levels should hit in less than two years.

That was according to Blockstream CEO Adam Back, who delivered a fresh bullish Bitcoin price outlook on Monday.

Back was responding to a report by Yassine Elmandjra, a crypto-asset analyst at investment advisor Ark, who in September forecast a BTC market cap of $1 trillion to $5 trillion by 2030 at the latest.

Ark is well known for its enthusiastic price forecasts for Tesla stock, which saw an almost unbelievable rise in 2020.

“Conservative. I’d say bitcoin likely sees $1 trillion market cap within 2 years, probably sooner. $1 trillion is about BTC $50k,” he said.

As of October, Bitcoin’s market cap is just over $198 billion.

For Back’s prognosis to come true, the market would need to see a 400% increase by 2022.

For reference, at the start of October two years ago in 2018, the figure stood at $114 billion.

BTC/USD traded at $6,600, two months before the pit of its bear market which bottomed out at $3,100.

Further responses to Ark included on-chain data resource Ecoinometrics, which highlighted a $2 trillion Bitcoin market cap as equal to that of Apple.

BTC/USD would trade at $100,000 under such circumstances, while to equal gold, the pair would need to reach $500,000.

BTC price activity is currently much more subdued, with analysts expecting more sideways action to characterize the remainder of the year. 

At the same time, anticipation is building over BTC/USD abandoning its correlation to traditional macro assets and rising in line with historical behavior — specifically centered on predictions from the stock-to-flow price forecasting models. 

Stock-to-flow calls for an average price of $288,000 during the current halving cycle, which began in May and will last until 2024.

Adam Back: Crisis Will Push BTC to $300K Even Without Institutions

The Bitcoin pioneer says that unlimited money printing will drive retail investors toward BTC and push the price to $300,000 within five years.

In an interview with Bloomberg — in which he once again denied he was Bitcoin (BTC) creator Satoshi Nakamoto — Back outlined his thinking behind the sky-high price prediction.

The cypherpunk OG — who was cited in the Bitcoin white paper — added that BTC may not need the long-awaited flood of institutional money to push it into a bull run.

“It might not require additional institutional adoption because the current environment is causing more individuals to think about hedging,” Back said.

“And retaining value when there’s a lot of money printing in the world.”

In January, Back responded to reports that had unearthed early Bitcoin dev Hal Finney’s wild speculation that Bitcoin may be worth $10 million one day.

Back said that it was entirely possible that high inflation could make $1 worth $0.10 over a decade or so, which would mean: “$10mil/BTC is $1mil/BTC in today’s money.”

“And $100K Bitcoin doesn’t seem so far given we already crossed $10k threshold a few times when few expected even $1k some years back and $10k seemed crazy.”

With that in mind, it’s possible that Back expects a $300,000 BTC price in five years’ time to be more achievable, as it would be worth considerably less in today’s money due to inflation.

Crypto Titan Dan Moorehead, the CEO of Pantera Capital remains bullish on the Bitcoin price, which he notes BTC goes up, on average, a little more than 200% per year, despite the “manic” bull and bear runs that grab the headlines.

Based on his firm’s stock-to-flow analysis of previous halvings, Morehead says Bitcoin is projected to hit $115,000 by next August.

While he cautions that he wouldn’t necessarily take even odds on BTC actually surpassing that figure in 12 months, he does say it’s “definitely pretty possible.”

The CEO is more confident Bitcoin will crack $100,000 in two years’ time, comparing it to an early-stage venture investment opportunity that only looks different because it has real-time pricing.

Still, he warns investors to put in only as much capital into BTC as they can afford to lose and then “hold it for 10-15 years.”

In a new interview with Thinking Crypto, Dan Morehead says the company’s largest allocation is in Bitcoin, followed by Ethereum.

After that, Morehead lists Polkadot, Filecoin, Augur and 0x as other altcoins with large allocations at the firm.

In total, Pantera manages $600 million worth of assets in the crypto space, and the CEO says he personally invests in the firm’s capital funds.

He believes there is an inefficiency in the market that fails to completely price in the impact of Bitcoin’s halvings before they happen.

“Over the past two halvings, there have been very clear positive impulses. They start about a year and a quarter prior to the halving and they go for about 440 days after the halving. And what’s typically happened is the markets have gone up a bit into the halving, and then after the halving, over the next 440 days, they go up a ton.” 

Morehead says the crypto market is benefiting from significant changes in custody offerings, which offer institutional investors more ways to safely store their assets.

Chainlink Rival Band Protocol Surged 65% Overnight – 3 Reasons Why

Band Protocol (BAND), a rival blockchain network to Chainlink (LINK) — which is also at an all-time high — surged by 65%. Within 24 hours, BAND rose from $4.825 to $8, setting a new record high.

Three major catalysts appear to have triggered the rally of BAND, namely the DeFi (decentralized finance) boom, Coinbase listing and new partnerships. Since June 1, the total value locked in DeFi protocols increased from $1.04 billion to $4.47 billion.

The valuations of DeFi-related project tokens has risen substantially as the capital involved in the DeFi space surged by more than four-fold.

Band Protocol, like Chainlink, is a blockchain network for oracles. DeFi protocols rely on oracles to retrieve market data, as they cannot access raw data from other blockchains or websites.

As such, oracles are critical to the success of DeFi applications. As the DeFi market is rapidly expanding, the demand for oracles is also increasing in tandem.

DeFi projects technically could make their own oracles but it requires time and resources to develop them. That is where oracles like Band Protocol and Chainlink come in.
