Bitcoin Indications ‘Remain Bearish,’ Says Bloomberg’s Senior Market Strategist

October 25, 2018

CNBC’s Crypto Trader just interviewed Mike McGlone, the senior strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, which is the company’s market research division.

Although he’s constantly searching for reasons to be bullish on Bitcoin and crypto, at the moment McGlone says current Bitcoin volume and the number of active Bitcoin addresses are two metrics that show the bear market is likely to continue.

“Honestly, every day I try to find ways to say Bitcoin’s going to go up, or cryptocurrencies are going to go up, and the more I dig into the data that actually have driven price in the past, I see more indications it’s going to go lower…

Of course, we can do anything. But based on the indicators I have, the prices should still go lower unless something shifts that I can’t predict, like some kind of fundamental thing.”

Crypto Trader Ran NeuNer suggests that the launch of Bakkt as well as other key developments, such as Fidelity’s new crypto exchange, will lead to a Bitcoin ETF.
