The chief funding officer of Ikigai Asset Administration thinks {that a} setup by no means earlier than seen within the historical past of crypto will push Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) to contemporary all-time highs (ATHs).
In a protracted thread on the social media platform X, crypto skilled Travis Kling says {that a} confluence of things is conspiring to gas Bitcoin’s rally to a brand new all-time excessive.
“BTC has primarily a free stroll to ATHs.
We simply bought spot BTC ETFs, which unlock protected entry to BTC for trillions of {dollars} that haven’t beforehand had it.
The halving is a number of months away.
The Fed is prone to lower charges a number of instances this yr. Shares are at ATHs and seem like they’re heading greater…
We will argue concerning the tempo to ATHs (1H-24, 2H-24, 1H-25) and we will argue about how far past prior ATHs we’ll finally go this cycle ($75,000, $90,000, $100,000, $120,000, $180,000), however the path to ATH seems to be extremely easy.
Crypto should do little or no ‘work’ to get BTC into the excessive $60,000s. It can doubtless simply ‘occur’ as a result of we’ve got ETFs and the Fed is easing. We’ve by no means had a setup like that earlier than.”
The halving, which cuts BTC miners’ rewards in half, is predicted in April.
At time of writing, Bitcoin is value $43,022.
Kling says that Ethereum additionally has the identical setup. However as a substitute of the halving, Kling says Ethereum depends on its burn mechanism which destroys a small quantity of ETH with each single transaction.
The Ikigai govt additionally believes {that a} spot market ETH is prone to get accredited throughout the coming months.
“The identical setup as above can also be primarily in place for ETH, simply delayed by three-12 months.
For the very same causes that the SEC was compelled to approve spot [BTC] ETFs (misplaced the Grayscale determination; courtroom dominated that when you’ve got BTC futures and BTC futures ETFs, it’s a must to permit spot BTC ETFs), the SEC is compelled to approve ETH ETFs.
We will argue concerning the timing of approval – March? In all probability too early. Could? Actually potential however nonetheless possibly a bit early. August? Feels about proper.
I feel it’s fairly unlikely we get to a yr from now and gained’t have a spot ETH ETF.
Mix that with Fed charge cuts and the reflexivity inherent within the ETH burn mechanism, and I feel ETH additionally has a free stroll to ATHs, which is up about 100% from right here. Once more, affordable minds can disagree concerning the timing and the way far past prior ATHs ETH will go this cycle, however it seems to be like mainly a free stroll.
We’ve by no means had a setup like that earlier than.”
At time of writing, ETH is buying and selling for $2,304.
