Bitcoin’s Upcoming Capital Crisis. Bitcoin Obituary #53

Obituary #53 · · Bitcoin at $295
“We’ll sign off with the simple point that unless a massive amount of new capital is transferred into Bitcoin market sharpish — which is not impossible, since there are still a number of deep pocketed believers out there — it’s hard to imagine the asset class going any other way but south. Furthermore, it’s unlikely at this stage that either price rigging, mining cartels or lower energy costs will be able to reverse that trend.”
