Not enough bitcoin for everyone? – The number of billionaires who reveal to hold Bitcoin (BTC) is growing every day. This time, it is the wealthy Mexican businessman, Ricardo Salinas Pliego, who announces he owns BTC. He even promotes a maximalist book on Bitcoin .

A billionaire with 10% of his cash in BTC

Ricardo Salinas Pliego is the founder of Grupo Salinas , a group of companies covering, among others, the telecommunications , media and financial services sectors . His personal fortune was estimated at $ 13.2 billion as of February 2020.

In a tweet published on November 18, Ricardo Salinas Pliego begins by recommending a book on Financial Peak, which touts the creation of Satoshi Nakamoto as „a decentralized alternative to central banks . “

At the end of his post, he also reveals a barely believable fact. The third richest man in Mexico would trust Bitcoin, to the point of placing a large chunk of his cash there:

“(…) Bitcoin protects citizens against theft from governments. Many people ask me if I have bitcoins YES! I invested 10% of my cash portfolio in it. “

By comparison, billionaire Paul Tudor Jones admitted to owning “only” 1 to 2% of his assets in bitcoins.

Fiduciary currencies are worth „nothing“

In another tweet , Ricardo Salinas Pliego specifies that he has not „rushed“ recently to Bitcoin, but that it is a long-term investment , started with the Grayscale fund in 2016 . He started his crypto investments with a BTC at $ 800 .

In addition, he explains that the remaining 90% of his liquidity portfolio is placed in precious metal mines .

The billionaire seems to be looking for safe havens in the face of his fears for fiat currencies . In a tweet preceding his revelations about his crypto-investments, the businessman openly criticized state currencies. In this case, showing whole bags of banknotes thrown in the garbage (probably in Venezuela):

“(…) I am sharing with you a video taken in a Latin American country, where banks throw money in the trash (paper money is worth nothing). That is why it is always good to diversify our investment portfolio. It is theft by inflation. „

Bitcoin is now and for everyone – Never have more investors been tempted by Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptos. While the king of cryptos recently surpassed $ 13,000, a report from Grayscale tells us that now a majority of average people are considering buying cryptocurrency.

80% of BTC owners have bought it less than a year ago

The Grayscale investment fund recently published a study on „Bitcoin investors in 2020“ .

We therefore learn that interest in Bitcoin is growing strongly compared to last year. Of the 1,000 US citizens surveyed this year, 55% say they are considering investing in BTC. They were only 36% in 2019.

Another interesting metric: 83% of those who have already invested in BitQT report having done so recently , in the last 12 months at most. In more detail, we even note that 64% have invested over the last 6 months at most, despite the current pandemic .

The Covid-19 has even accelerated the shift to buying bitcoins

Among the rather surprising news that we learn from this report, we even discover that this global health crisis has motivated American investors to make their crypto-investments.

63% say they have decided to buy BTC because of the consequences of the Coronavirus pandemic.

In the end, the Grayscale study estimates that the market for potential investors in Bitcoin is now 32 million people in the United States. A nice increase compared to last year, because they were only 21 million.

One last notable and important point for the adoption of Bitcoin : respondents seem to be increasingly familiar with the invention of Satoshi Nakamoto. Eh yes ! 62% of investors said they were „familiar“ with how Bitcoin works – it was still just 53% last year alone.

In the world of smart contract, Ethereum is king and the rest can only watch from a distance.

Ethereum dominates
Ethereum’s potential to become the dominant blockchain for carrying out transactions within a decentralised financial system seems infinite. Ethereum continues to absorb the majority of users, liquidity and developer creativity. Watkins of research agency Messari looked at the blockchains of Ethereum and Bitcoin and concluded that the daily transaction volume of Ethereum is twice as high.

The downside of dominance
But such a high transaction volume also has a price. Literally. Transaction costs (gas) have to be paid. An enormous growth in popularity in DeFi and, to a lesser extent, NFTs, pushed transaction costs to record heights. This makes Ethereum too expensive for many consumers to use, unless the amounts involved are very large. It also makes it less attractive for non-financial applications. Ethereum developers have made several attempts to solve scale problems, but there is no miracle cure yet.

Room for competitors
This ‚gas crisis‘ is in theory the perfect storm for the so-called Ethereum Killers to pluck their cheap solutions and superior scale technology. The full launch of ETH 2.0 will take some time, giving other networks a glimmer of hope to conquer part of the smart contract market.

The past quarter has seen a revival of other smart contract platforms. There are five projects that collectively raised 138 million dollars in Q3. We are also seeing the emergence of parallel DeFi ecosystems. There are more than 50 projects building on the Cosmos SDK and Polkadot DeFi projects have raised a total of more than USD 18.5 million in the past two months.

The coming months could be very decisive for the future of smart contracts. Almost every high-profile Ethereum competitor will be live by the end of this year. With Ethereum’s current gas problems, their timing could not be better to try to convince the talent and liquidity of developers to switch.

Ein spanisches Blockkettenunternehmen schickte alle 350 Kongressabgeordneten Bitcoin. Zu schade, dass sie damit nicht viel anfangen können.

In Kürze

• Ein spanisches Kryptowährungsunternehmen schickt dem spanischen Gesetzgeber Bitcoin.
• Das Projekt ähnelt Crypto for Congress, einer Aufklärungskampagne, mit der US-Gesetzgeber über digitale Währung aufgeklärt werden sollen.
• Die spanische Kampagne hat möglicherweise zu wenig geschickt, um nützlich zu sein.

Anfang dieser Woche schickte die Kammer für digitalen Handel jedem US-Vertreter und Senator 50 Dollar in Bitcoin. Jetzt beteiligen sich spanische Befürworter der Kryptowährung an dem Gesetz.

Die spanische Zeitung ABC berichtete gestern, dass alle 350 Abgeordneten im spanischen Unterhaus, dem Kongress der Abgeordneten, im Rahmen einer Kampagne der symbolisierten Bildungstechnologie-Plattform Tutellus und der Krypto-Nachrichtenseite Observatorio Blockchain Bitcoin im Wert von 1 Euro erhalten sollen.

Die Idee ähnelt einer US-Kampagne namens Crypto for Congress, obwohl unklar ist, ob das ein Zufall ist.

In dieser Kampagne, die am Montag angekündigt wurde, gab die Interessenvertretung für die Krypto-Währung, die Chamber of Digital Commerce, bekannt, dass sie Bitcoin im Wert von 50 Dollar an jedes US-Kongressmitglied schicken werde. Die Idee war nicht, sie zu bestechen – für 50 Dollar kann man in DC kaum eine Runde Bier kaufen – sondern den Gesetzgebern zu helfen, zu verstehen, wie die Kryptowährung tatsächlich funktioniert. Das Geld ging zusammen mit einer Reihe von Schulungsprogrammen zu Bitcoin.

In ähnlicher Weise erklärte der Tutellus-Gründer Miguel Caballero: „Wahrscheinlich haben viele Ihrer Lordschaften bereits einige Erfahrung in der Verwendung von Kryptowährungen, aber wir würden uns wünschen, dass diejenigen, die mit dem neuen Geld noch nicht vertraut sind, die Möglichkeit hätten, sich damit vertraut zu machen“, so ABC.

Das ist für das Mitglied der Eurozone Spanien zunehmend wichtig. Christine Lagarde, Präsidentin der Europäischen Zentralbank, sagte letzte Woche, dass die EZB „bereit sein sollte, einen digitalen Euro herauszugeben“. Die Ankündigung korrespondierte mit der Veröffentlichung eines umfassenden Berichts darüber, wie die Einführung des digitalen Euro aussehen würde; die öffentlichen Konsultationen beginnen am 12. Oktober.

„Mit einem digitalen Euro am nahen Horizont glauben wir, dass sich unsere Abgeordneten als Vertreter der Bürger über die Vorteile und Risiken von Kryptowährungen im Klaren sein sollten“, sagte Caballero.

Fairerweise muss man sagen, dass die digitalen Währungen der Zentralbanken ein anderes Biest sind als Bitcoin, das nicht vom Staat ausgegeben wird. Aber beide erfordern von Regulierungsbehörden und Gesetzgebern, die Haftung im Zusammenhang mit der Speicherung und der Verwahrung durch Dritte zu überdenken, wie ein kürzlich veröffentlichter Bericht der Bank of Canada hervorhob.

Und die spanischen Gesetzgeber müssen auch sicherstellen, dass sie mit ihren Wählern Schritt halten. Ungeachtet der Türkei hat Spanien laut der globalen Verbraucherumfrage von Statista mit 10% eine der höchsten Raten der Einführung von Kryptowährungen in Europa, verglichen mit 7% in den USA.

Die Gründerin und Präsidentin der Chamber of Digital Commerce, Perianne Boring, sagte gegenüber Decrypt: „Obwohl die Chamber of Digital Commerce nicht an diesem Programm beteiligt ist, unterstützen und fördern wir Blockketten- und Kryptowährungs-Bildungsinitiativen für politische Entscheidungsträger auf der ganzen Welt“.

Dennoch scheint die Kampagne der Kammer, zumindest auf den ersten Blick, eher einen Einfluss auf die Haltung der Gesetzgeber zu haben als die spanische. 50 Dollar Bitcoin reichen zumindest aus, um damit auf Handelsplattformen zu experimentieren oder etwas zu kaufen. Allerdings deckt der Wert eines einzigen Euro – den die spanischen Abgeordneten erhalten sollen – nicht einmal die durchschnittliche Bitcoin-Transaktionsgebühr ab, die derzeit über 3,50 Dollar (2,96 Euro) liegt.

Nichtsdestotrotz könnte dies Neugierde wecken. Und wer weiß? Vielleicht ist dies der erste Schritt, damit der spanische Gesetzgeber Bitcoin Cash annimmt.

More Cryptos – Cryptocurrency investment funds managed by the Grayscale company have been breaking record after record since the start of this year. In its latest quarterly report, Grayscale shows that institutional investors continue to position themselves exponentially in major crypto-assets.

$ 1 billion invested in cryptos in just 3 months

Fund manager Bitcoin Storm buys cryptocurrencies as an underlying to its investment products, with its clients then buying shares in those funds.

As storage remains the responsibility of Grayscale, institutional investors seem very fond of this mode of acquiring crypto-assets. This is in any case what confirms, once again, the last activity report of Grayscale, for its third quarter of 2020 .

Over one year, since the end of September 2019, the company’s crypto-assets under management have increased from a total of 2 to 5.9 billion dollars , an increase of about 195% . In the last quarter alone, Grayscale added $ 1.05 billion worth of cryptos to its reserves.

Cumulative value (in millions of dollars) of all crypto-assets under Grayscale’s management

Unsurprisingly, the most popular fund for investors is the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust , with an average of $ 55.3 million invested each week in the third quarter (nearly $ 720 million over 3 months).

After BTC, ethers (ETH) are the most in demand: the Grayscale Ethereum Trust has seen an average of $ 15.6 million in weekly investments.

2% of all existing ethers to satisfy institutional appetites

With the new investments this quarter, Grayscale now has under its management 2% of all ethers mined to date.

As can be seen from the graph below, institutional investors are by far the biggest leaders of these crypto-investments. It thus represents 81% of the sums invested during the third quarter and 80% over the last 12 months.

Percentage of total sums invested by type of investor

Grayscale notices that their clients are gradually seeking to diversify their crypto-assets . Indeed, in addition to the success of Ethereum, the Digital Large Cap fund – which concerns a basket of 5 cryptos – and the funds dedicated to Litecoin (LTC) and Bitcoin cash (BCH) have experienced very strong growth in the last quarter. .

In more detail, the Grayscale Litecoin Trust saw $ 27.2 million over 3 months, an increase of 1,800% compared to the second quarter. For Bitcoin Cash Trust , the quarterly increase is 1,500% and it is 900% for Digital Large Cap .

Investments per quarter in the various funds of Grayscale

The movement to buy crypto-assets by institutions is growing impressively. Even so, it’s normal to wonder when these massive investments are going to impact crypto prices. At such a rate, one would be tempted to say soon.

Amerikaanse presidentskandidaat Jo Jorgensen accepteert nu crypto-donaties.

Jorgensen geeft toe een pro-crypto beleid te hebben.

Politici zijn een andere groep van prominente figuren die cryptocurrency naar mainstream bewustzijn en adoptie brengen. Onlangs heeft een Amerikaanse politicus, Andrew Yang, onthuld dat hij open stond voor het accepteren van crypto-donaties voor zijn campagne. Later nam hij echter afstand van de strijd om het Amerikaanse presidentschap. Vandaag heeft een andere Amerikaanse presidentskandidaat, Jo Jorgensen, dezelfde donatiemethode gedebiteerd.

Een crypto-vriendelijke presidentskandidaat

Terwijl hij zich richtte tot de Bitcoin (BTC) en cryptocurrency-investeerders/handelaars, onthulde Jo Jorgensen dat haar campagne openstaat voor crypto-donatie. Naast de financiering van haar campagne met behulp van fiatvaluta (US dollar), betekent de ontwikkeling dat haar aanhangers en volgers nu kunnen steunen met digitale valuta. BitPay zal de crypto-donaties verwerken. De supporter kan ervoor kiezen om te doneren via Bitcoin, Ether (ETH), Ripple (XRP), Bitcoin Cash (BCH) en anderen.

Naast de crypto-donaties zou Jo Jorgensen een crypto-vriendelijk regime naar de Verenigde Staten kunnen brengen, omdat ze toegeeft een fan te zijn van cryptocurrencies. Naar verluidt is Jorgensen een 63-jarige presidentskandidaat van de Amerikaanse Libertaire Partij. Terwijl ze commentaar gaf op de ontwikkeling, adviseerde een gebruiker van cryptocurrency dat Jo Jorgensen een pro-crypto beleid zou aannemen. Het zal misschien meer steun voor haar campagne krijgen, vooral vanuit de crypto-industrie.

Jo Jorgensen viel daarmee samen en zei dat ze al een pro-crypto beleid heeft en een grote fan is van digitale valuta.

Amerikaans crypto-vriendelijk ecosysteem staat voor de deur

Nu steeds meer politici en prominente medewerkers uit de Verenigde Staten steun blijven aankondigen voor digitale valuta, zou men kunnen voorspellen dat er een crypto-vriendelijk regime op komst is in het land. Onlangs meldde Cryptopolitan hoe Ripple’s Chris Larsen jammerde over de strenge en onzekere regelgeving voor cryptografie in de Verenigde Staten. Op een gegeven moment onthulde hij dat ze hun hoofdkwartier naar het buitenland zouden kunnen verplaatsen als de autoriteiten hun standpunt over crypto niet veranderen.

Il 2020 è stato un anno di montagne russe per Bitcoin. I blocchi causati dalla pandemia di coronavirus all’inizio dell’anno hanno spinto il crypto più basso di quasi il 60 per cento. Il suo crollo ha seguito poco dopo un rimbalzo altrettanto aggressivo che ha portato il suo prezzo al rialzo del 220 per cento.

Si può affermare con certezza che la Bitcoin si trova in una posizione redditizia fino a quest’anno. La performance della valuta criptata al 50 per cento sopra lo zero è più alta di quella registrata dai mercati tradizionali, compreso l’indice di riferimento americano S&P 500.

Ma entrando nel quarto e ultimo trimestre del 2020, il mercato Bitcoin lotta con la prospettiva di parare una buona parte dei suoi guadagni annuali, se non tutti. Ecco tre ragioni per le quali il cripto-valuta rischia di diminuire nella prossima sessione.

#1 NOI INCERTEZZA ELETTORALE

La Bitcoin si è mossa quasi in tandem con le azioni USA alla fine del terzo trimestre. Così sembra, i trader di cripto-currency erano in attesa di ulteriori chiarimenti sull’esito delle elezioni presidenziali americane di novembre. Ma anche quando i sondaggi hanno mostrato che il candidato democratico Joe Biden avrebbe potuto vincere la presidenza, Donald Trump ha rovinato le prospettive.

Il presidente in carica degli Stati Uniti ha detto che non avrebbe lasciato lo studio ovale in silenzio per i suoi sospetti di frode elettorale. Gli investitori hanno preso a cuore la sua dichiarazione. Hanno scaricato le azioni per tutto il settembre 2020 per cercare sicurezza in contanti. Bitcoin, nel frattempo, si è anche svalutato del 9 per cento nel mese, nonostante abbia chiuso il terzo trimestre in territorio estremamente positivo.

Il mese di ottobre si aspetta che gli indici Bitcoin e Wall Street rimangano frammentati, se non addirittura ribassisti. La crittovaluta potrebbe quindi rivisitare i precedenti livelli di supporto vicino a $10.400, $10.200 e $10.000 mentre gli investitori si muovono verso la sicurezza del contante. Nel frattempo, i trader con una prospettiva a lungo termine potrebbero limitare lo slancio al ribasso acquistando BTC ai minimi locali.

#2 DELINQUENZE

Un altro fattore che metterebbe alla prova i Bitcoin e i tori di Wall Street è l’aumento dei crediti in sofferenza negli Stati Uniti.

La mancanza di accordo sul secondo pacchetto di stimolo del coronavirus è motivo di preoccupazione per i disoccupati e le piccole e medie imprese. Con gli economisti che non prevedono alcuno stimolo fino alle elezioni presidenziali, il mercato rischia di vedere un aumento dei mutui, dei prestiti, del credito e dei crimini legati agli affitti nel quarto trimestre.

Questo potrebbe lasciare i titoli finanziari – la spina dorsale dell’economia statunitense – al ribasso. E prima, le sue perdite potrebbero dilagare sul mercato Bitcoin, mentre i trader iniziano a scaricare le loro redditizie posizioni per coprire le loro perdite a Wall Street. E‘ – di nuovo – a causa della correlazione tra Bitcoin e l’S&P 500.

#3 CORONAVIRUS

I mercati statunitensi continueranno a fare trading sotto il rischio della seconda ondata di infezioni da coronavirus. In assenza di stimoli, seguiti dalle minacce di un altro ciclo di blocco delle attività, gli investitori potrebbero essere costretti a rientrare in attività a rischio, compresi il dollaro USA e i titoli di stato.

All’inizio di febbraio fino a marzo, un sentimento simile aveva causato il crollo del mercato Bitcoin. Pertanto, a meno che non ci siano nuovi aiuti disponibili per l’economia statunitense, la criptovaluta potrebbe rimanere intrappolata nel sentimento di svendita guidato dal coronavirus.

La linea di fondo è che gli stimoli e la liquidità possono salvare il Bitcoin dal scendere sotto i 10.000 dollari. I trader dovrebbero guardare lo sviluppo a Capitol Hill per ulteriori spunti. Fino ad allora, rimane il rischio di grandi passi indietro.

Bitcoin står overfor sterk motstand på $ 11,150.

BTC har sannsynligvis begynt en bullish impuls.

BTC Bitcoin C0de resesjon

Bitcoin (BTC) -prisen nærmer seg et viktig motstandsområde på $ 11 150, men ble avvist før den kom dit.

Etter en kortsiktig reduksjon forventes BTC å gjøre et nytt forsøk på å bryte ut.

Bitcoin nærmer seg motstand

Bitcoin-prisen har fulgt en synkende motstandslinje siden den nådde en lokal høyde på $ 12 473 den 17. august. BTC har validert denne motstanden to ganger siden.

Prisen nærmer seg for øyeblikket denne motstandslinjen igjen. Linjen sammenfaller også med $ 11,150-området, som tidligere fungerte som støtte, men vendte seg til motstand 19. september.

Et brudd over denne motstandslinjen og $ 11 150-området vil bekrefte at trenden er bullish.

Det kortsiktige diagrammet viser at prisen to ganger ble avvist av 0.786 Fib-nivået fra den forrige reduksjonen på $ 10 955, og har begynt å spore tilbake.

Det er forventet at $ 10550-området vil gi støtte siden det både er 0,5 Fib-nivået for hele oppoverflyttingen og et tidligere motstandsområde. Så lenge denne sonen holder, er muligheten for fortsettelse fortsatt høy.

Det er sannsynlig at den 9. september begynte BTC en bullish impuls (vist i oransje nedenfor). Det ser ut til å ha fullført bølger 1 og 2 og har sannsynligvis begynt den tredje.

Foreløpige mål for toppen av den tredje bølgen er funnet til $ 12 180, $ 12 880 og $ 13 380 (1.61, 2.27 og 3.61 Fib nivåer av underbølge 1).

Underbølgene er vist i blått i diagrammet nedenfor:

Underbølgetellingen viser at BTC for øyeblikket korrigerer i underbølge 2, som foregår inne i en ABC-formasjon (vist i rødt nedenfor). Formasjonen forventes å slutte mellom 0,5 og 0,618 Fib-nivåene mellom $ 10,450- $ 10,550, men den eksakte formen avhenger av om A-delen har tre eller fem bølger.

BTC har ennå ikke nådd 1.382 Fib-tidsnivået (vist i blått), så det er lite sannsynlig at korrigeringsperioden er avsluttet.
