Analysts at JPMorgan Project Fresh Decline in Bitcoin

Despite the recent bullish recovery from the Thanksgiving “massacre” by Bitcoin (BTC), analysts from JPMorgan Chase & Co expect a steep decline for the cryptocurrency soon.

The strategist highlighted some factors that could play crucial roles soon for the benchmark cryptocurrency.

A recent JPM analysis, led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, noted that the Thanksgiving crash has cleared the “previous froth in momentum traders’ positioning.” However, the analysis purports that Bitcoin could still see fresh declines.

Apart from the momentum traders factor, the strategists went ahead to broach several other reasons influencing price dynamics. One of such factors is the rumor circulating in the industry about some unfavorable regulations proposed by the Trump administration.

Another crucial factor highlighted by JPM analysts is the significant role Grayscale and its Grayscale Bitcoin Trust could have on the market. The crypto fund management firm is regarded as the most reliable firm for institutional investors looking for a foray into Bitcoin and other digital assets.

This reliability in the crypto firm has been demonstrated through 2020 as Grayscale reported record-breaking numbers, quarter after quarter. The firm’s assets under management have peaked at over $10 billion in just 12 months, with Grayscale Bitcoin Trust having the most substantial share.

That said, the analysts have asserted that if the GBTC becomes unattractive to investors, it could have a devastating impact on Bitcoin, which is believed to have become a favorite among institutional investors.
