Ethereum (ETH) price is trading about 5% higher on the day after plunging more than 30% from the recent record highs.
Fundamental analysis: Regulatory issues unlikely to affect Crypto, says an analystCoinShares analyst Meltem Demirors said Bitcoin-related regulatory concerns are not likely to curb the cryptocurrency’s momentum.
“The regulatory issues have been around for a long time, we’ve been dispelling them for a long time. At this point, our belief is: Bitcoin is not a question of if, but when,” said Demirors, chief strategy officer at CoinShares.
“We certainly believe, you know, the best time to invest in bitcoin was yesterday — the second best time to allocate is today,” she added.
Demirors’ statement came after the number one cryptocurrency reached yet another milestone and broke above $1 trillion in market value a week ago. Similarly, Ethereum price exploded higher to trade above the $2,000 mark again.
Analysts believe that main factors behind a rally in the cryptocurrency market include adoption among large companies and investors such as Tesla, Mastercard, and the Bank of New York Mellon.
However, Demirors said that investors should be cautious and avoid allocating large portions of their balance sheet to BTC.
