▼ + stars: | 2024-01-10 | by ( Mackenzie Sigalos | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Though approval of multiple spot bitcoin ETFs translates to increased fee competition and a way out for current GBTC investors, many traders would take a capital gains tax hit if they exited their GBTC position to purchase another ETF. watch nowWhether the appetite for spot bitcoin ETFs is overblown is another key concern among investors. "Gold ETFs are currently 1.4% of above ground (investible) gold," the JPMorgan analysts wrote. "We believe that the cryptocurrency markets are pricing in an optimistic impact from Bitcoin ETFs that is likely to fall short of expectations." WATCH: SEC approves 11 bitcoin spot ETFs

Meanwhile, there is growing excitement that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission will approve the first ever bitcoin ETF, after years of opposition. With all of this excitement comes some quite bold predictions about bitcoin's price. "No rationale for that prediction," Mobius said, except that a bitcoin ETF looks likely and "that has heightened interest" in the cryptocurrency. Yang attributes the anticipated price rise to a bitcoin ETF being approved, leading to higher institutional investment in bitcoin, as well as May 2024's bitcoin halving, which would result in the bitcoin supply being constrained. Alexander told CNBC that during the first quarter of 2024, bitcoin will trade within the $40,000 to $55,000 range, owing to "professional traders creating volatility."

Both gold and bitcoin kicked off the week by hitting new milestones — spot gold hit a record high above $2,100 per ounce, and bitcoin topped $42,000 to hit its highest level since April 2022. The digital currency appears to have broken through key technical levels and could continue to rally through the end of the year, according to Joel Kruger, market strategist at LMAX Group. "A Bitcoin ETF allows easy access to Bitcoin via broker accounts, RIAs and wealth/private banking channels.

It began with Standard Chartered last week which reiterated an April price call that bitcoin would hit $100,000 by end of 2024. "Combined with geopolitical crosscurrents, this healthy dose of monetary support should push Bitcoin to new highs in 2024."

November was perhaps the most significant month of this year for the crypto industry and gave bitcoin a strong setup as investors look toward 2024. "It's safe to say that the market is grinding higher in anticipation of a spot bitcoin ETF approval in January," said Ryan Rasmussen, research analyst at Bitwise Asset Management. "Some investors will continue trying to front-run the potential spot bitcoin ETF approval, but December is essentially a 'wait and see' period for bitcoin," he said. November is a historically strong month for bitcoin. "It tells us that investors are interested in more than just the potential for a spot bitcoin ETF.

Bitcoin's price may be due for one more pullback in the coming weeks and that could be a good opportunity to buy more of the cryptocurrency before its next leg up, according to Wolfe Research.

Bitcoin rallied to start the week, touched a new 2023 high to end it and suffered a brief drop in between, weighed down by the trouble at Binance. Bitcoin ended the week higher by about 4% after touching a new 2023 high on Friday above $38,000. Coin Metrics measures a week in crypto, which trades 24 hours a day, from 4:00 p.m. Optimism about the likely approval of a spot bitcoin ETF has been building for the past couple months, serving as the biggest catalyst for the cryptocurrency. The challenge is that active crypto trader positioning appears long, he added, based on activity in crypto futures, options, open interest and funding rates.

Edelman also founded Edelman Financial, a large firm of registered investment advisors. The potential of a bitcoin ETF has appeared to help fuel a recent rally in the cryptocurrency. Concerns from advisors Crypto's dramatic rise has largely come without the embrace of the traditional financial system, such as financial advisors and major banks. But not all financial advisors seem ready to embrace crypto just because investing in it is simpler. Client demand Even if advisors are skeptical of crypto, the arrival of bitcoin ETFs is sure to generate more questions from clients.

☆ Bitcoin leaps to 2023 high on ETF bets

Bitcoin rose more than 6% to $35,198, its highest since May 2022. It had surged 10% on Monday in its best session for almost a year and its price has doubled in 2023. Crypto-linked shares such as Coinbase Global (COIN.O) or bitcoin owner MicroStrategy (MSTR.O) rose in after-hours trade. An exchange-traded fund (ETF) owning bitcoin on behalf of fund investors is seen as a driver of demand because it would allow anyone reluctant to trade crypto markets a means of buying exposure to bitcoin through the stockmarket. So the ETF would make a large audience and increase liquidity," said Steen Jakobsen, CIO at Saxo.

The Valkyrie Bitcoin and Ether Strategy ETF (BTF.O) was up 9.4%, leading gains among recently launched funds that track Ether futures.

☆ Bitcoin is on the rise again. Here’s why Warren Buffett remains a crypto hater
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-22 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Cryptocurrencies are on the rise again, helped by optimism surrounding the possible introduction of a spot bitcoin ETF. But no matter how strong this rally gets, it won't convince one of the industry's biggest critics — Warren Buffett. Bitcoin surged 10% over the past week, at one point briefly topping $30,000, as hopes grew that a spot bitcoin ETF will soon be approved. But whether a bitcoin ETF soon becomes reality or not, it won't alter the Oracle of Omaha's thesis on cryptocurrencies, which is that they are highly speculative, non-productive assets. Buffett, who once famously called bitcoin "probably rat poison squared," has compared the bitcoin phenomenon to the tulip bulb mania in the Netherlands in the early 1600s .

Patchy regulation and high energy usage have also prevented the spread of crypto as a means of payment. These include electric carmaker Tesla , which in 2021 began to accept payment in bitcoin, the biggest crypto coin, before CEO Elon Musk halted it because of environmental concerns. Ferrari shipped more than 1,800 cars to its Americas region, which includes the U.S., in the first half of this year. Galliera did not say how many cars Ferrari expected to sell through crypto.

On top of that, Treasury yields remain high amid stubbornly high inflation and uncertainty around the Israel-Hamas war.

☆ Bitcoin has limited upside in the fourth quarter as the possibility of higher rates casts a shadow over crypto

In the final quarter of the year, bitcoin is likely to see continued chop and although there's room for some upside, it may be limited. Despite this, it remains on pace for an 11% decline in the third quarter, historically a weaker quarter for the cryptocurrency. Meanwhile, holding a non-yielding asset like gold or bitcoin could become "less interesting" as rates go higher, Amberdata's Magadini said. There's a significant crowd on both sides, Cox said – "that's why bitcoin is up 60% in a year when the Fed has hiked interest rates so aggressively." The answer to that depends on interest rates, which will probably stay high."

☆ Bitcoin is both a risk asset and safe haven—and still worth owning at these levels, says Wolfe Research

Bitcoin has long perplexed investors with its ability to act as both a store of value and a high risk asset, but Wolfe Research says it's worth owning either way and to lean into the nuance. "A question we have often asked is whether BTC should be treated more like a risk asset or a storage of value such as Gold. "Bitcoin is highly correlated to small caps, a risk asset. That said however, bitcoin only rallied this spring thanks to the banking scare, which saw investors flee to the 'safety' of the coin," he added. Though bitcoin was initially designed to be digital cash and an alternative financial system, it spent much of 2022 trading like a speculative asset.
