Creating a national Bitcoin reserve could prove disastrous for markets, as it would signal an immediate shift in the global financial order. Establishing a national Bitcoin (BTC) strategic reserve may create negative market impacts for BTC and the US dollar, according to Haider Rafique, global managing partner for government and investor relations at crypto exchange OKX. Rafique told Cointelegraph that any government holding significant portions of the BTC supply could manipulate prices by dumping its holdings onto the market, thereby disrupting the core proposition of BTC as neutral, decentralized money. He asked: “What happens in a few years if a new administration decides this was a bad idea?” Rafique added: Read more -

Traditional financial instruments cushion volatility and attract institutional investors to Bitcoin — a sign of market maturation. Derivatives products, like options contracts — financial instruments that give investors the right but not the obligation to buy or sell an asset at a pre-determined price — will drive the Bitcoin (BTC) market capitalization to at least $10 trillion, according to market analyst James Van Straten. Van Straten said that options and other derivatives attract institutional investors and cushion markets from the high volatility that is a hallmark of digital assets. He pointed to open interest for BTC futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), the world's largest derivatives marketplace, as evidence of a shift. Van Straten wrote: Read more -

Investor psychology has not changed in the ensuing 25 years since the dotcom-era bust that took down the US stock market in the early 2000s. The crypto treasury narrative, which has become a major feature of the current market cycle, parallels investor sentiment from the dotcom era of the late 1990s and early 2000s, which caused the stock market to sink by about 80%, according to Ray Youssef, founder of peer-to-peer lending platform NoOnes app. The same overzealous investor psychology that led to over-investment in early internet and tech companies during the dotcom crash has not disappeared due to the presence of financial institutions in crypto, Youssef told Cointelegraph. He said: Today, the global financial market is driven by the idea of cryptocurrency, decentralized finance, and the Web3 revolution,” he added. Read more -

Retail and quants are fueling DEXs like Hyperliquid, while CEXs hold institutional ground. Aster’s rise adds new pressure to the onchain race. Decentralized exchanges (DEXs) are rapidly gaining traction among retail traders and quants, while institutions continue to favor centralized platforms, according to Bitget Wallet’s chief marketing officer Jamie Elkaleh. Elkaleh told Cointelegraph that the strongest adoption of platforms like Hyperliquid is “coming from retail traders and semi-professional quants.” Retail users are drawn in by airdrop cultures and points systems, while quants favor “low fees, fast fills, and programmable strategies,” he said. However, institutional desks still rely on centralized exchanges (CEXs) due to their support for fiat rails, compliance services and prime brokerage offerings. Read more -
