Bitcoin has undergone a strong rally over the past few days as buyers have returned to this market. CryptoSlate market data indicates that Bitcoin is currently trading for $12,250, a price just shy of 10 percent higher than it was just a week ago.

Macroeconomic trends suggest Bitcoin will see fireworks in 2021Financial analyst and author Preston Pysh says that as Bitcoin begins to break higher as traditional investments continue to yield little to no returns as markets become congested, a flood of capital may rush into BTC, driving prices dramatically higher:
“With more than 15 TRILLION+ in fiat denominated bonds around the world yielding a negative return, how do you suspect these “asset” owners will respond if/when #Bitcoin breaks it’s previous all time high? Get ready for some fireworks in 2021…”

Pysh’s sentiment has been echoed by others, as it’s clear that institutions will naturally tend towards new asset classes as they seek returns for their investors.
Andrew Kang, the founder of the DeFi-focused crypto fund Mechanism Capital, recently stated that the “backdrop for institutional adoption of Bitcoin” is stronger than ever before. Some of the reasons he mentioned are as follows:
Bitcoin volatility has declined massively. Volatility is often one of BTC’s characteristics most often cited by traditional investors as reasons to avoid this market. There is “looming” inflation, which should drive down the value of the U.S. dollar. Yields are low, meaning the opportunity cost of owning Bitcoin goes down. Other markets such as the stock market and real estate have extremely high valuations. Institutions are taking noticeInstitutional investors are taking notice of this trend and we’ve begun to see a mass accumulation of Bitcoin by institutional players.
This began earlier this year when Paul Tudor Jones, a billionaire Wall Street investor, said that he sees much value in Bitcoin amid macroeconomic turmoil. He revealed that he allocated 1-2 percent of his fund’s capital and net worth into the cryptocurrency’s futures, shocking mainstream media and this industry.
This was followed up with a series of recent moves.
MicroStrategy purchased $425 million worth of bitcoin over the past few months. Square allocated one percent of its total assets to the cryptocurrency, marking a $50 million investment. And Stone Ridge Asset Management, a $10 billion asset manager, recently purchased 10,000 Bitcoin after it received strong interest in the coin from its staff and its clients.
