Many countries around the globe are beginning to show interest in crypto and Bitcoin-related investment products.
Just recently, the National Bank of Bahrain (NBB) has announced a collaboration with APR Digital to roll out the GCC’s inaugural Bitcoin-linked structured investment fund.
This initiative aims to provide accredited investors with direct exposure to Bitcoin, reinforcing the country’s commitment to enhancing cryptocurrency adoption. Currently, Bahrain is recognized as one of the nations with significant Bitcoin holdings.
This new investment fund is a pioneering effort in the GCC region, which includes Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
Hisham AlKurdi, NBB’s Group Chief Executive for Markets & Client Solutions, expressed enthusiasm about this structured investment, highlighting its blend of digital asset exposure and capital protection.
He stated that the product exemplifies the bank’s dedication to delivering innovative and secure investment options for wealth management clients.
A string of red flags is raising the possibility that the crypto market may be sliding into another cold stretch.
Bitcoin appears to be entering a more mature phase, with volatility reaching record lows and institutional interest on the rise.
Bitcoin has seen a volatile week, climbing over 7% and trading near $85,750 as of April 15.
Bitcoin may be gearing up for another rally, and one key macro trend could be the driving force: a surge in global liquidity.
