Binance CEO: ‘I Don’t Understand Why the Bitcoin Price Isn’t Shooting Through the Roof’
Changpeng “CZ” Zhao quietly offered a utopian forecast for the cryptocurrency industry and his ubiquitous cryptocurrency exchange, Binance–which he revealed is becoming increasingly institutionally oriented and will launch five to 10 fiat-to-crypto operations in nearly every continent.
Speaking at Consensus Singapore, the Binance chief whip suggested that the regulatory breakthroughs seen last week have now provided an onramp for institutional entrance to cryptocurrency and that the market may have greener pastures ahead.
Zhao was presumably giving the nod to Gemini’s new regulated stablecoin and BitGo’s approval to operate as a qualified custodian, both of which have been widely heralded as pivotal pieces of infrastructure for institutional participation in cryptocurrency. He stated:
“Custodian solutions, insurance, are very important, and stablecoins are very, very important—actually all of those things happened in the last week—I don’t understand why the Bitcoin price isn’t shooting through the roof.”
Where such comments would seem bullish, the Chinese-Canadian billionaire noted that price predictions were not his forté—a foreseeable disclaimer, given his position as chief executive of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by daily volume.
Zhao did go on to offer a data-driven bull flag of sorts, explaining that Bitcoin has exhibited unrelenting growth on weekly, monthly and yearly time scales. There may be little certainty found in Zhao’s obligatory projections; however, the executive explained at length Binance’s devotion to fueling market growth.
