Predsednik zbornice digitalne trgovine o institucionalizaciji bitcoina

On Friday (July 23), Perianne dolgočasno, the Founder and President of the Zbornica za digitalno trgovino, talked about the institutionalization of Bitcoin during an interview with anchor Maria Bartiromo, anchor Fox Business show “Zjutraj z Marijo".

Zbornica za digitalno trgovino je "vodilno svetovno trgovinsko združenje, ki zastopa industrijo digitalnih sredstev in verig blokov." Njegovo poslanstvo je "spodbujati sprejemanje in uporabo digitalnih sredstev in tehnologij, ki temeljijo na verigah verig".

Bartiromo je intervju začela z vprašanjem o "institucionalizaciji kripto", pri čemer se je sklicevala na Elona Muska komentar on Wednesday (July 21) at the recent (virtual) B Word conference about Tesla “most likely” resuming the accepting Bitcoin as a means of payment and the poročilo published yesterday (July 22) by Business Insider that said that JPMorgan has given its wealth management clients access to five cryptocurrency funds.

Dolgočasen je odgovoril:

“Well, I’ve always had all the confidence in the world that digital assets, and Bitcoin specifically, will emerge as its own asset class, but not without controversy, and we’ve absolutely seen that in the markets with Elon Musk, these about-faces from the banks…

“So these two announcements, you know, JPMorgan’s specifically, what they’ve done is they’ve removed a couple of these closed-ended mutual funds from the restricted list. So now, the $630 billion dollars under JP Morgan’s wealth management division can have access to the securitized Bitcoin and Ethereum products.”

Bartiromo je vprašal, kako bodo digitalna sredstva vplivala na gospodarstvo.

Dolgočasen je odgovoril:

“Bitcoin has really emerged as the leader of a store of value and in many ways it is replacing the role gold has played in diversifying portfolios for many years and in the last segment, we talked a little bit about inflation. Corporate institutional and retail investors are looking to invest in Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation, especially during uncertain economic times like this.”

Prejšnji mesec Arcane raziskave, the research division of European crypto-focused investment firm Tajna kripto, wrote about the institutionalization of Bitcoin in a poročilo titled “The Bitcoin Trading Ecosystem and the Emerging Institutional Infrastructure”.

Poročilo pravi:

“It has become a lot easier from both a regulatory and practical perspective for institutional investors to hold and invest in bitcoin. Many institutions have been reluctant to embrace the asset, but this is now changing.

“Institutional investors have three main ways to invest in bitcoin: Exposure through spot markets like LMAX Digital, exposure through derivatives like CME’s bitcoin futures, and exposure through investment vehicles like Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust. All have become exceptionally popular over the past year…

“Part of bitcoin’s value lies in its ability to be self custodied. However, many institutions are unwilling to expose themselves to the risks associated with it. Instead, they seek custody solutions for digital assets as robust as those for traditional assets. Lately, we have seen the arrival of trusted custodians in the bitcoin market. Large financial institutions like BNY Mellon, Standard Chartered, and Northern Trust are getting ready to enter bitcoin custody, eliminating one of the biggest hurdles to invest for many traditional investors.

“Moreover, Fidelity has already built a bitcoin custody service for its institutional clients. These traditional firms are joining several crypto native custody providers, such as Coinbase, Gemini, and BitGo. The dominos are falling fast.

“With the domino effect at play, the trend of rising institutional demand is expected to continue. Some are beginning to dip their toes into the market. We have seen traditional financial players gain exposure to the market through their investment portfolios. Examples include Goldman Sachs investing in BitGo, Visa investing in Anchorage, Boston Consulting Group investing in Bakkt and BNY Mellon investing in Fireblocks.

“Bitcoin is becoming increasingly legitimized through the growing market and infrastructure, and continues to attract the attention of both retail and institutional investors as an emerging asset class.”
