The Next Bitcoin Mania is Here...
The main thesis (explained in the thread below) has been that rising institutional demand coupled with an already-tiny float will catapult Bitcoin higher in the short to medium term.

Brief update.

Letâs run through all the Old Guards of Wall Street whoâve recently morphed into Bitcoin advocates...
First up, we got George Ball, ex-Prudential CEO, coming out in favour of Bitcoin on Aug 14: https://www.reuters.com/video/watch/idRCV008LQI

Next, we got the legendary Paul Tudor Jones, declaring that âitâs like investing early in a tech companyâ on Oct 22: https://www.coindesk.com/paypal-paul-tudor-jones-breakdown
Then, we got none other than the man himself, Stan Druckenmiller, telling us on Nov 9 that âif the gold bet works, the Bitcoin bet will probably work better because itâs thinner and has a lot more beta to it.â https://twitter.com/lashercorson/status/1325872804714180610
This week, we had Ray Dalio come out and admit that he âmight be missing somethingâ about Bitcoin (what heâs missing is 165% YTD return...) https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-11-17/ray-dalio-says-he-might-be-missing-something-about-bitcoin
This morning, Blackrockâs CIO for fixed income, Rick Reider, noted that he thinks Bitcoin is âhere to stayâ... https://seekingalpha.com/news/3638337-bitcoin-is-here-to-stay-blackrocks-rick-rieder-says-in-new-full-throated-support
With all these influential Old Guards coming out in favour, everyoneâs gonna need some Bitcoin. Most allocators will eventually capitulate to at least a small Bitcoin allocation.
And letâs not forget the monster that is $GBTC, which continues to corner the float at astounding speed, gobbling up around 120,000 coins since mid October... and collecting 2% management fees...
And, if Google Search Trends mean anything, we could just be in the very early innings of this Mania... https://twitter.com/ronstoeferle/status/1329816091082813444
All that said, Bitcoin is, as we well know, extremely volatile.
Itâs up 65% since I wrote that it was âOn the Precipice of Another Maniaâ on Oct 14, but it could easily give back those gains before rocketing past its previous all-time high.

If you think Bitcoin is the future and the answer to all our monetary woes, I wish you luck.
If you think Bitcoin is a giant Ponzi scheme, then I urge you to channel your inner Soros and hop in regardless: âWhen I see a bubble forming, I rush to buy, adding fuel to the fire.â
