Bitcoin’s halving is just around the corner and crypto enthusiasts are waiting for the event with excitement.
Retail and institutional investors should buy BTC
As the Bitcoin halving approaches there’s one popular Wall Street analyst who said that both retail and institutional investors should buy BTC.
Jefferies’ global head of equity strategy Christopher Wood said that the halving which reduces the rate of new BTC that enters the supply should be sending the value of the coin to the moon, just like it did during the two previous halvings back in2012 and 2016, according to Financial Times.
Bitcoin has unique properties
Wood goes beyond the halving in order to urge his readers to invest in BTC.
He pointed out to the fact that BTC has unique properties including its decentralized nature and fixed supply which make it a solid bet in a time when central banks are endlessly printing fiat money.
