Holy Testicle Tuesday! Bitcoin's Gone Bonkers!
Greetings gentle beings! Ace Ventura Pet Detective and now…*drumroll*…Financial Analyst (sort of) here to report on a development so electrifying it's like finding out Finkle *is* Einhorn! That's right Bitcoin that digital doubloon has skyrocketed to a new all time high! Wednesday saw it blow past its January record hitting a staggering $108,955.10 according to Coin Metrics. At one point it even flirted with $109,500! Coulda fooled me but I'm not a smart man but I know what love is...and so is Bitcoin!
Macro Cauldron? Sounds Like Something I Found in My Apartment!
Apparently this surge is due to some 'favorable ingredients in the macro cauldron.' That sounds like something I'd find growing under my couch after a long stakeout. Antoni Trenchev some big cheese at crypto exchange Nexo says it's a mix of softer U.S. inflation numbers a cooling down of the U.S. China trade war and Moody's downgrading U.S. debt. Alternative stores of value like bitcoin get a spotlight. In other words people are looking for somewhere to stash their cash that isn't Uncle Sam's piggy bank!
From Slump to Pump! Bitcoin's May Makeover!
Remember when Bitcoin was sulking around $74,000 because of 'global macro concerns'? Yeah well kiss that bad boy goodbye! It's like when Snowflake went from frumpy to fabulous! Bitcoin's been steadily climbing in May up a whopping 15%. It's like the crypto world is saying 'Alrighty then! Let's get this party started!' This after weeks of uncertainty caused by tariff troubles.
ETF Inflows? More Like 'Easy Ticket to Fortune' Flows!
Everyone's been pumping money into those exchange traded funds that track Bitcoin's price. Over $40 billion has flowed in recently! That's like finding a room full of rubber chickens... pure gold baby! Only two days of outflows in May?! This is one hot potato!
Liquidity Tariffs and Deficits Oh My!
Bitcoin is benefitting from all sorts of things. Like the stock market's got some extra cash to throw around (liquidity they call it). Plus all those worries about tariffs and deficits in the U.S. are driving people to alternative assets like...you guessed it...Bitcoin! It's the 'risk off' asset. And don't forget about that golden oldie gold. It's all a balancing act folks like juggling flaming chainsaws on a unicycle.
Regulatory Updates and Corporate Treasures! The Future is Now!
Investors are practically drooling over the prospect of regulatory updates and big companies investing in Bitcoin. Since the beginning of the year public companies have increased their Bitcoin holdings by 31% totaling a staggering $349 billion! That's 15% of the total Bitcoin supply! The Senate is even working on legislation to regulate stablecoins and President Trump wants to sign some crypto regulation before Congress takes a nap. And Coinbase is now part of the S & P 500! It's like watching a Chia Pet grow...only with money!
