Wealthy individuals are offloading Nvidia shares and investing in ETFs with potential returns nearing 80,000%
In a significant shift in investment strategy, billionaire investors David Shaw and Steven Cohen have recently made their first forays into the crypto industry. The duo, known for their successful hedge funds, have reduced their stakes in Nvidia and invested in Bitcoin and Bitcoin-focused Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs).
According to reports, Shaw increased his position in the iShares Bitcoin Trust by over 1,600 percent, while Cohen invested in over 1.6 million shares of the same ETF. This move, experts believe, could be a strategic shift towards cryptocurrencies, seeking diversification and potential high returns associated with Bitcoin investments.
The iShares Bitcoin Trust is a spot Bitcoin ETF, approved at the beginning of the year, which is expected to increase demand from institutional investors. The potential upside for the iShares Bitcoin Trust, according to industry experts, is nearly 80,000 percent.
Analysts at Bernstein have also weighed in on the future of Bitcoin, predicting that it could reach $200,000 by 2025, $500,000 by 2029, and $1 million by 2032. BÖRSE ONLINE, a German financial news and data provider, has set its price target for the end of 2025 between $150,000 and $180,000.
Michael Saylor, another prominent Bitcoin advocate, has even more ambitious price targets. He predicts that Bitcoin could reach $3 million in a bear scenario, $13 million in a base scenario, and $49 million in a bull scenario by 2045.
The BÖRSE ONLINE Best of Krypto Index, which includes the 10 largest crypto coins, weighted by market capitalization, provides another perspective on the crypto market. The index does not require a crypto exchange account and can be conveniently traded via the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. The index is rebalanced semi-annually, making it a dynamic tool for tracking the crypto market.
However, it's important to note that the future potential of Bitcoin remains uncertain. The sales of Nvidia stock by the billionaires are likely profit-taking, but the strategic shift towards cryptocurrencies suggests a belief in their long-term potential.
As institutional investors continue to show interest in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, the crypto market is expected to see more activity and potential growth in the coming years.
