There are a lot of titles where the gaming experience is unparalleled with a gaming controller. Surely, there are instances where a mouse excels but the multi-tasking of a controller is what makes it stand out. Thankfully, there are plenty of controllers available to choose from and this goes for most price ranges. The majority of gamers usually settle for a cheap one, which is why companies like Gamesir have introduced their brand new budget T7 Xbox wired controller. The Gamesir T7 brings an Xbox layout and a wired connection that works with several devices out of the box but […]
Through its official Amazon storefront, Jackery is offering its new Explorer 2000 v2 Portable Power Station for $999 shipped, after clipping the on-page $500 off coupon. This new model from Jackery released just a few weeks ago at $1,499, with a few di...
Bitcoin (BTC) is on a warpath ahead of its halving event in April, buffeted by the benevolent tailwinds emanating from the relentless inflows into the cryptocurrency's spot ETFs, which have now attracted $5.63 billion in cumulative net inflows. Yet, some uber-bullish analysts are setting their sights much higher and betting on a David vs. Goliath fight between Bitcoin and Gold. Bitcoin's near-term bullish thesis is quite solid. At the current pace of inflows, spot Bitcoin ETFs are soaking up around 12.5x more Bitcoin each day than can be produced via mining. Once the halving event arrives, the reward for mining […]
Wall Street is quite notorious for not always walking the talk: its analysts might publicly recommend a particular course of action, but that does not necessarily mean that the banks' internal trading teams follow that "fount of wisdom." A recent investment note from JP Morgan has again raised the proverbial hackles of Bitcoin bulls, especially as the note hammers on a thesis that is superficially accurate but lacks proper context. Short Coinbase $COIN, says JPMorgan, as Bitcoin ETF volumes disappoint: "Highlighting our more bearish view on COIN, with 2024 expected to be more challenging with the key catalyst of a […]
Bitcoin's "sell the news" type of move is officially over, with the world's pre-eminent cryptocurrency managing to recoup all of the losses incurred in the aftermath of the launch of some of the first spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US. As animal spirits return, investors are now turning their attention toward upcoming bullish catalysts, including an event that does not have much relevance for the Western world but one that has exercised substantial influence over Bitcoin in the past nine years. Matrixport's head of research and the founder of 10x Research, Markus Thielen, has identified a unique phenomenon over the […]
With Bitcoin firmly perched on a seemingly endless downward spiral, some in the wider crypto community have been quick to blame the increasing financialization of Bitcoin for this ongoing rout, courtesy of the just-launched spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US. In fact, Bitcoin seems to have entered a new bear market in less than two weeks after hitting a fresh multi-year high. However, in direct opposition to the prevailing sentiment, profit-taking is the prime instigator of this latest bout of weakness. Overall Flow stats for ALL Bitcoin ETPs since 11th Jan 2024: * New US ETFs: +$4,536m* GBTC Outflow: -$3,447m* […]
The extravagantly hyped launch of some of the first spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US proved to be the nth iteration of the famous market-based adage: buy the rumor and sell the news. In fact, we had highlighted the utility of moving toward Ethereum in an auxiliary post at the time. Now, as Bitcoin seems poised to lose the $40,000 price level, some crypto bigwigs believe that the ongoing bout of weakness will last till the end of January 2024. In the immediate aftermath of the launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US, the apex cryptocurrency had made a […]
A lot has been written on the impact that the launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US will unleash on the world's preeminent cryptocurrency. Some think that these investment vehicles will make Bitcoin more volatile, dancing to the ever-changing tune of the market. Others believe that these spot ETFs will play an important role in soaking up the available BTC supply, ushering in a fundamental repricing of the world's largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Based on the initial trends, the latter hypothesis appears closer to reality. As we noted in a dedicated post at the time, Bitcoin responded spectacularly […]
If historical analogs continue to hold true, and we have no evidence at this time that they would not, Ethereum is all set to take the crypto leadership mantle now that spot Bitcoin ETFs have begun trading. $1B in 4 mins of Bitcoin ETF trading https://t.co/Jq1Q64GvXJ — On-Chain College (@OnChainCollege) January 11, 2024 The cumulative volume of spot Bitcoin ETFs hit $1 billion in just the first four minutes of trading! This is a phenomenal level of activity, even against already-elevated expectations. Just wow: $BTC surpassed $48,000 and is approaching $49,000 following the record-breaking trading volume of Spot #Bitcoin ETFs. […]
After its anti-crypto stance failed to withstand scrutiny in courts, forcing the apex US financial regulator to resort to a hefty dose of inertia - more appropriately described as dragging one's feet - presumably in a last-ditch effort to create as many legally tenable hurdles as possible, the SEC has finally approved some of the first spot Bitcoin ETFs for trading on eligible American exchanges. This much-expected capitulation of sorts, however, has been overshadowed by yesterday's dramatic events, replete with a Hollywood-like caricature hacking incident. “Order granting accelerated approval” it’s over. Thank God. pic.twitter.com/qCozlxzSBX — Eric Balchunas (@EricBalchunas) January 10, […]
