Bitcoin's Bullish Projection

Coinbase head of institutional research David Duong in a LinkedIn post forecasts a strong second quarter in 2024 for Bitcoin, the world's largest digital currency by market capitalization.

Entry of Large Institutions

The bullish prediction is primarily driven by the entry of large institutions into the Bitcoin market, facilitated by Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs).

Writes Duong,

“[On] the demand side, the 90-day review period that many wirehouses employ when conducting due diligence on new financial offerings – like spot Bitcoin ETFs – could conclude as early as April 10th. That is, it’s customary for large broker-dealers to undertake rigorous 360-degree evaluations before permitting wealth advisors to allocate client assets.

Their assessments thoroughly examine (1) whether such products satisfy investment minimums and liquidity thresholds as well as (2) whether the requisite daily trading, custodial and regulatory reporting activities impose any insurmountable operational challenges to their existing infrastructure.”
