Bitcoin started September on a bearish note, crashing below $53,000 with most altcoins following suit.
Despite this recent correction, many analysts are still bullish on the renewal of the bull run, anticipating a rebound after the Fed lowers interest rates. Another major factor that could play in igniting the said surge will be the outcome of the U.S. elections.
Mike Novogratz is one of the people that are bullish for Bitcoin in the long-term, and his company’s crypto strategy is evidence of that.
