Investing.com -- Bloomberg’s ‘Crypto Outlook’, a monthly edition on the state of cryptos, said that Bitocin can hit $400,000 by the end of Q4 2021. The report said “Money managers reluctant to cross the Rubicon and allocate at least a small portion of funds may be at risk as Bitcoin simply does more of the same, advancing in price amid unprecedented low interest rates and elevated equities.”
The flagship cryptocurrency hit a high of over $64,500 a day before crypto platform Coinbase listed on the stock markets and topped a valuation of $100 billion for a brief while.
As the pandemic has forced investors to look beyond traditional financial assets, Bitcoin has emerged as the most popular alternative.
However, around 4% out of 200 professional investors surveyed by Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) in their monthly Bank of America Fund Manager Survey say that Bitcoin is a bubble. They also said that Bitcoin is second on the list of most-crowded trades, after technology stocks. The monthly survey aggregates the thoughts of 200 institutional, mutual, and hedge fund managers around the world.
Around 10% of the managers said that they think Bitcoin will outperform in 2021. Bitcoin is up over 606% since April 30, 2020 when it closed at $8,624. As of this report Bitcoin is trading at $60,917.
