In the Beyond Blocks Conference in South Korea, he also stated that the biggest change this year is the institutional investors. He has also previously said that a herd of institutional investors is coming into the crypto market.
“We are pretty much bottomed, I am not positively Bottomed, but it feels like we have”
comments Novogratz.
“I do think we are already building a nice bottom for the next move up. I think the next move up is gonna need custody from a trusted resource, it’s gonna need more regulatory clarity.”
As for hitting the 10k price, he shares, “We won’t take out 10,000 without those two things because that’s what bring institutional investors in, but we are gonna get there.”
For the price journey, he shared,
“We are gonna take out $10,000 then go right to $20,000.”
Novogratz has previously said that by the end of next year bitcoin will be hitting $25,000. But according to him this time it will lower than $800 billion because the custody solutions and regulatory clarity have yet to materialize. In the next 6 to 18 months, he believes it is going to happen.
