There is nothing surprising. No matter how anyone feels about Bitcoin, it shows incredible indicators of volatility on which you can make great money.
You can predict anything, but there is always the possibility that Bitcoin will rise in price to a large extent, which means that as part of a diversification strategy, you must have a little in your portfolio.

You know what investors put their money into? Most people think that investors put their money into things that will make them more money and that is the end of the story but the reality is investors do not know the future, they just invest into things they "believe" it could make them money, and that is not always the thing that will make them money, sometimes they lose money. No, investors put their money into things that they think people will spend money on, because if you have a company that people are willing to buy from, you are most likely will continue to exists, look at apple for example, they are huge so I wanted to give them as example, everyone all around the world buys apple phones and laptops and so forth, so why not put your money in there?

Bitcoin has to become something people are willing to put their money into before big investors would come in, we are doing it a bit and put our money in but we need tens of billions of dollars more of this to get attention from wall street bigs.

5% is not that vital an amount so the suggestion of Fidelity is more on leaning to the safer option or the lower risk option. Bitcoin is not yet very established as an investment option but it somehow suggests that it is quite independent and uncorrelated so those which are trying to diversify their portfolio won't risk much if they allocate an amount as low as 5% to Bitcoin.

It has so much potential, as obviously shown and proven by its decade-long existence, so companies are not really blindly risking their 5% to something untested.

 This is just the beginning. Major funds never invest all their capital in one place. They start little by little with low interest rates. In addition, you need to look not at interest, but at the amount of funds invested in bitcoin, and this equals several hundred million, which is quite a good amount. I am sure that other foundations will follow suit.

Indeed. This is just the first salvo so to speak. I also agree that those percentages may be seemingly low but if you take the US dollar value from it, the amount reaches a staggering several millions.

And with the fiat currency experiencing terrible increase in supply in just a blink of an eye due to the pandemic, there is more reason for large companies to get out of it and put their worth elsewhere. That will include Bitcoin to many of them.

Fidelity Investment have like 1 or 2 trillions dollars portfolios? So 5% is like 50 or 100 billions dollars? That's a lot!
1 or 2 trillion dollars are very different amounts, so it must be exact 1 or 2?
And, I am sure that he has lots I don' Bitcoin in his portfolio. But the question is does he use it for only long term investment or make it for trading? Well, actually there are also many whales that also probably have more than the amount. But they keep silent and they are no one in the real-life, only focusing on the crypto world and they are not actresses, influencers, politicians, and others.

Me personally, I only have a very small amount in my portfolio. That is why I will put more than 40% of my portfolio in Bitcoin. I don't want to put my little money into too risky new altcoins.

I agree that for a normal person, diversification into Bitcoin and precious metals is a good idea, especially now but if you want to maximize your gains, you need to invest in a microcap like $0xMR.

Lol are you sure about 0xmr? as far as I know if that's a crap coin. to diversification our assets into the bitcoin and that sounds pretty good at this moment but you should realize that in fact if we must take only good coins to be our long term portfolios. Fidelity will never try to consider 0xmr as a token that must be taken caused by it's a very bad coin atm.

I think you are joking about that.

This is very exciting time for cryptocurrency
This will be bringing the cryptocurrency into the golden time again. Just imagine how much funds that being managed by the large companies and then when a company like fidelity has suggested 5% from our total portfolios should be on bitcoin.

Remember square has already bought a lot of bitcoin to be used as its portfolios too.

Crypto will be avery valuable thing in the future especially bitcoin.

If you really invest 5% into bitcoin when you are that big of a deal as a company, that is going to change too much in the crypto world. Think about places like JP Morgan or Chase or another huge company like that suddenly putting 5% into bitcoin, thats really not something we should not consider happening anytime soon because we are talking about 50+ billion dollars for a 1+ trillion dollar company and some of them actually do have that kind of money.

We can't just make our predictions based on them making 5% bitcoin investment, that is something far far down the line which is why we should focus on a bit sooner. As long as more companies like fidelity or grayscale or square comes up, we are going to get bigger and bigger because they will buy and hold billions of dollars.

I am also interested in why the price of bitcoin has not yet increased, if such large campaigns have begun to invest in it. Buying so many coins would not be reflected in the price increase. Most likely all these coins were bought on the over-the-counter market, which is upsetting, because I would like to get a very fast rise in bitcoin.

What matters here is not the amount for which Fidelity bought bitcoins. The very fact that such a large fund started investing in the cryptocurrency market is very important here. I am sure that gradually the rest of the funds will go to invest in cryptocurrencies and, more and more, for large sums.

They recommend 5% in bitcoin but it doesn't say whether they are planning to invest. If they do, it will definitely help the bitcoin price. I am not sure what their total investment portfolio is but I believe its in trillions and even 5% of that could bring market to higher level. Although, I think it should be around 20-30%, not 5%

It looks like fidelity was also considering it caused by its own survey as so many people have invested their money into the cryptocurrency.

Is not it should be around 400 billions as the total customer's asset in that was holding by fidelity was around 8 trillion dollars?

If that will be a real thing and i can't imagine how it will give an impact on the bitcoin. That's very huge money to come in.  Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

Like I said I don't know how many trillions Fidelity have, if you said around 8 trillion dollars now that's HUGE!

Whatever it takes to make crypto legit in the eyes of many people and it's a good thing. Crypto has long been used as a form of investment and it's about time for people to figure this out instead of wasting time on those stocks that has the same risk as crypto but way less profit lol. Diversifying portfolio to crypto is kinda normal at this point as long as you don't put all your money in the same basket it won't go anywhere.

Still they said there is potential on the crypto market so don't forget to some of your money into cryptos for their investors but the percentage is the only error I guess.As I said it has plenty of room the 5% even look so small, it will be increased when more people enters into the market.
Of course the Bitcoin network has potential, but users should decide for themselves how many % of their funds they want to put into the BTC network, 5% may be too much for some, but for some companies that have adopted the network, it may be quite small. But mind you that the Bitcoin network is a speculative market and notwithstanding that it can be a hedge when institutional currencies plunge, users should still abide with the rule of thumb of investing what they can afford to lose
We all know how these big guys can manipulate market in their wanted direction so smaller guys need to be careful, yes market outlook is also bullish but still i think we should not follow such news.
I don't think this has anything to do with any sort of manipulation, and if users don't fall for FUD, then no matter how whales manipulate the market, it doesn't affect their asset, that being said, this year big companies are now seeing more potential in BTC, maybe it's cause of how the economy and fiat reacted badly to covid-19, it helped BTC adoption a lot to say the least.

If this is there research report or analysis then it is totally fine but if they have made investment into bitcoin and now posting such things then it is nothing but shilling.

This is easily a buy signal and it also shows the fact that every invedtment firm is now keen to adopt, invest and hold crypto, they were skeptical like 2-3 years ago but now they seem clear and that is why they are openly and publically speaking about it now.
