Wall Street's Bitcoin Bet Fails as Hedge Thesis Crumbles
Bitcoin Won Over Wall Street and Now It’s Paying the Price Wall Street may invest in BTC but that doesn't mean they are "hodlers" with the same religious zeal shown by many who profess to "never sell." -Bitcoin's price has fallen more than 40% as American money has retreated, with roughly $8.5 billion flowing out of US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds since Oct. 10. -The institutional thesis that Bitcoin would act as a hedge against inflation, currency debasement, or equity market stress has broken, causing investors to lose interest in the asset. -The market has lost its ability to respond to good news, with structured products that generate yield by selling options suppressing price swings in calm markets, then amplifying them when a real catalyst hits. #fintech #tech #finserv #AI @BetaMoroney @efipm @BrettKing @spirosmargaris @jasuja @enricomolinari @mikeflache https://t.co/0cOpjzmHMy
