The crypto market remained bullish for the past few months, which attracted much attention from global investors. Furthermore, Bitcoin price reached its all-time high and surpassed $41,000 earlier this year. One reason that led to increasing Bitcoin price is that many financial institutions and retail investors entered the market and invested in significant amount of Bitcoin and other digital assets, and have been holding them.
Among those institutions and investors, Grayscale is one that made a huge impact to the crypto market. In the market, the entry of Grayscale made other investors who were skeptical about the intrinsic values of digital currencies became more confident in Bitcoin, and once again, attracted more people to enter the market.
About Grayscale
Grayscale, a subsidiary of the Digital Currency Group, is the world’s largest crypto asset manager, and has created investment trusts for Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Horizen, Litecoin, Stellar, XRP, and Zcash. According to Grayscale’s official Twitter on January 29, 2020, the company’s total crypto assets under management (AUM) was above $27 billion.
How Grayscale affects the market and individual investors
In January 2021, Bitcoin price dropped from $41,000 to below $32,000 and climbed again after Grayscale reopened its Bitcoin Trust back up to new investors, which implied that the company plays an important role in the crypto market.
When Grayscale increases the investment funds for a certain crypto asset, the asset price has a chance to go up, which also brings the potential for individual investors to gain profits from the price change. Hence, most investors consider the assets that Grayscale has created investment trusts for types of indicators or hints in order to construct proper investing strategies.
