Mike McGlone, a senior commodity strategist at Bloomberg, has stirred the crypto community with his latest prediction about Bitcoin’s future price movement.
Reflecting on the recent bearish sentiment that pushed Bitcoin’s value below $80,000, McGlone suggested that the cryptocurrency could eventually return to the $10,000 mark.
He noted that when asset prices keep rising, everyone tends to think of themselves as long-term investors.
McGlone seemed puzzled by how Bitcoin managed to surge from $10,000 to $100,000 back in 2020, attributing the phenomenon to prevailing market trends rather than fundamental factors.
Once known for his pro-Bitcoin stance, McGlone now appears to have shifted his perspective, even mocking Bitcoin’s underlying technology.
He sarcastically remarked that Bitcoin’s tech is supposedly so advanced that Tether, a stablecoin pegged to the dollar, has become the most traded cryptocurrency instead.
McGlone also pointed out that Tether’s market capitalization could soon outpace Ethereum’s, highlighting a shift in the market dynamics.
He believes that risk assets, including cryptocurrencies, might have hit the peak of their speculative cycle, especially as new tariffs create additional pressure on the market.
The Mantra blockchain network has launched a significant initiative with the introduction of a $108.88 million fund aimed at accelerating the adoption of decentralized finance (DeFi) and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization projects.
Tether is considering launching a new stablecoin in the U.S., specifically aimed at institutional clients.
Pakistan has taken a significant step towards strengthening its presence in the global crypto landscape by appointing Binance founder Changpeng Zhao as a Strategic Advisor to the Pakistan Crypto Council.
Cathie Wood has shown renewed confidence in Coinbase, purchasing over $13 million worth of shares through Ark Invest on April 4th, despite the recent stock market downturn linked to tariffs.
