Pompliano 75% Confident Bitcoin Price is $100,000 by End of 2021

Quote
Anthony “Pomp” Pompliano — co-founder of crypto asset management firm Morgan Creek Digital Assets — predicts bitcoin (BTC) will hit $100,000 by the end of 2021.

Assigning 75% confidence to that level would put bitcoin's present value a whole hell of a lot higher, for someone like that, and it could lead to very foolish behaviors, perhaps?

It is a pretty high allocation of probabilities, and seemingly overly exuberant, from my view.

On the other hand, if you have those levels of confidence, but you still act prudently with your money, then you actions seem to be a bit out of line with your beliefs even if you have that kind of expectation that the value of your stash is going to go up more than 8x in 2 years.   Could be that your other behaviors become less rash, too, because you kind of take it for granted that you are going to be around 8x richer in a bit more than 2 years...?

Coinbase depth looking oversold






This "correction" starts to smell fishy to me. It all started with 800 BTC sell on CB that caused the crash from 13880. There is something suspicious in the way the sells are executed in CB in the last few days. Each time Bitstamp shows buying activity, some fat sell order on CB brings down the price with 3-4%. It looks as if some whale was in a hurry to unload tens of thousands of bitcoins in 11-13K area. And of course the weak hands follow with their panic sells. It may as well be a coordinated bears effort to look like the 2018 long and nasty crashes, but it happens too quickly.  They may try to produce an awful chart, so that trolls will explain how Bitcoin is doomed. But at the same time they hope to cheat the n00bs to sell their precious coins before the halving. If some trolls are telling us that Bitcoin won't go beyond the ATH, they are lying. They know it as much as we do!

Fuck Coinbase, those pieces of shit had the nerve to send me a questionnaire the other day after I started the KYC then said fuck that when I saw the questions they ask.

The Questionnaire asked "on a 0 to 10 scale what is the chance you would recommend coinbase to your friends. I of course chose 0 (or maybe it was one I forget already) and then it asked why and I wrote "My forefathers gave their lives ensuring the liberties of the American people from tyranny and you are doing everything you can to undo their work. FUCK YOU".

I don't see what would be the point to burn bridges.  If you have an account, and now you no longer want an account, is that what you were doing?  In my book, it's usually preferable to attempt to keep your options open.

My coinbase account has been around forever and I have never done the KYC they now require, comprehende?

Indeed if settling in bitcoin, it is necessary that both parts hold as much physical bitcoin as necessary. Otherwise, with sufficient volatility, insolvency will ensue. That's one of the reasons I think in-kind ETFs and derivatives are medium term bullish AF.
Not necessary the case.
The future can be settled in bitcoin.
Daily margining can be done with cash.
In case of Bakkt futures are only 1 day forward, so marining or variation not a problem.
Not sure about Erisx, couldn't find product specifications.
Not so bearish on EFT or other BTC-related Derivatives then.

All right, then edit my previous response: maybe not "hold as much physical btc", but "be ready to buy, and actually buy if necessary, as much physical btc as necessary, at whatever price it takes (market buy)", which is nearly the same thing even if collateral is posted as fiat (which I doubt anyway).

Does this sound right?
Yes, but it's like any other future.
No difference.
Like any other future settled in kind, which is uncommon for most futures. This would lead to actual btc changing hands. I thinks it matters and does make a definite difference.
Commodity future (closest to BTC future, I think) are physically settled futures.

So the difference might be or in the liquidity of the underlying or in an unfair bias of the regulators (see above message about CXBTF)

Ah! You speak from a regulatory standpoint? I was looking more at the possible effects on the btc market.


Oh , sorry, Yes, this clarifies misunderstandings. Yes.
I guess futures are net positive on BTC market as gates for institutional money, not because futures per se.

So these are not just futures but it will allow them to settle in physical bitcoin?
This would mean it is no longer just a bet on the price of bitcoin but it is actually a buy and sell of it.
https://www.coindesk.com/td-ameritrade-backed-erisx-gets-green-light-to-settle-futures-in-bitcoin

Some have a difficult time trying to grasp the concept of what they are trying to do.
Until now a physical settlement has not been allowed because the cftc was not convinced any wall street firm could hold on to bitcoin safely within these so called custodial services.  Hence this is another move forward on the development of the bitcoin infrastructure and ecosystem.

Bitcoin tracker one (CXBTF) continues to experience regulator-induced difficulties trading in US despite the fact that is has been trading in Sweden for years already with nary a problem.
That vehicle has no premium to NAV in comparison with Barry Silbert 's concoctions that trade with high premiums (GBTC and ETHE).
Who said that US regulators play a fair game? Maybe we should ask Bra-Arg game referee?
