Anthony Pompliano: “Recovery Chances for Major Alt-Currencies in 2019 is Quite Low”

2019-1-12 21:03

It is quite evident that 2018 was a disastrous year for the crypto sector as a whole — with the prices of almost all of the major digital currencies (including BTC, ETH, XRP) dropping by more than 80%.

This drastic fall did not only prevent a lot of new investment from coming into this nascent domain but also stopped a host of different blockchain projects in their tracks — with a whole host of firms having to lay off a majority of their employees due to massive losses incurred all through the year.

Status Of The Market

While for a couple of days this year it felt as though the global crypto market was on its path to a full-fledged recovery, this short-lived uptrend was completely destroyed within the span of a few minutes— when the prices of almost all of the top altcoins came crashing down once again.

In this regard, Anthony ‘Pomp’ Pompliano, the founder of Morgan Creek Digital Asset, recently spoke with a respected media outlet about the future of the digital currency sector (primarily through 2019). In Pomp’s opinion, BTC might not drop further but the market as a whole might continue to suffer for some more time.

He then went on to add:

“I think that it’s likely we kind of just go sideways for a while right. You know, if you look at Bitcoin’s price, I don’t know maybe somewhere between like 2500-4500 for a good portion of the year is probably likely based on what we’re seeing”.

Other Big Names Chime in on the Matter

In addition to Pompliano weighing in on the future of BTC, in a recent interview with Meltem Demirors, the CSO of CoinShares, she was quick to note that 2018 saw the erasure of many half-arsed crypto projects that did not have a sustainable business model. Furthermore, she went on to say that as we move into the future, more and more opportunities will emerge within this burgeoning space.

Similarly, Arjun Balaji of CNBC was also quoted as saying that the digital asset market still had some bad days ahead of it. Not only that, he also opined:

“Regardless of how I feel about it a lot of you know the tokens that you see trading in this market they’re virtually zombies they haven’t been fully flushed out of the market yet so until that happens I’m a little skeptical that the markets fully bottom down. I think we’ll see that sometime this year.”

Research: EOS is not a blockchain, it’s a glorified cloud computing service

A blockchain testing company claims it has found something quite shocking: EOS, a blockchain protocol that was worth $4 billion a few months ago, may not actually be a blockchain. In a new experiment, benchmarking firm Whiteblock concluded that the EOS token (and its RAM market) is essentially a cloud service for computation – and is built on an entirely centralized premise.

Notes on Blockchain Governance

In which I argue that “tightly coupled” on-chain voting is overrated, the status quo of “informal governance” as practiced by Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Zcash and similar systems is much less bad than commonly thought, that people who think that the purpose of blockchains is to completely expunge soft mushy human intuitions and feelings in favor of completely algorithmic governance (emphasis on “completely”) are absolutely crazy, and loosely coupled voting as done by Carbonvotes and similar systems is underrated, as well as describe what framework should be used when thinking about blockchain governance in the first place.
