One of the most prominent names in cryptocurrency investing believes that Bitcoin\u2019s downtrend woes are near an end, and that a revisit to Bitcoin\u2019s all-time high is on the cards during 2019 due to increased interest from institutional investors.<\/span><\/p>\n Mike Novogratz, founder and CEO of crypto-focused investment firm Galaxy Digital Capital Management<\/span><\/a>, is rarely without comment on the state of the cryptocurrency market, and in particular, Bitcoin.<\/span><\/p>\n Bitcoin being the most well-known crypto asset and with a market cap that is 50% of the overall market\u2019s total aggregate, tends to be the focal point of most investors when speaking about the influx of institutional investors waiting to enter the market.<\/span><\/p>\n That institutional influx, Novogratz says, will take Bitcoin to its previous all-time high and beyond in 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n “There\u2019s going to be a case of institutional FOMO [fear of missing out], just like there was in retail,” Novogratz reports the Financial News<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Before that happens, Bitcoin needs to take out a couple key overhead price resistance points.<\/span><\/p>\n “Bitcoin has to take out $6,800, and after that we could end the year at $8,800-9,000,” he clarified. After that, though, it\u2019s off to the races for Bitcoin.<\/span><\/p>\n Novogratz recently had a moment of bearish sentiment<\/span><\/a>, suggesting that Bitcoin wouldn\u2019t break $9,000 before the end of the year, and was targeting the second quarter of 2019 when Bitcoin could break $10,000.<\/span><\/p>\n However, the negative sentiment appears to have passed, and he\u2019s now suggesting that break of important psychological resistance at $10,000 will occur during the first quarter of 2019 \u2013 a break he expects to start the next bull run, potentially beating previous highs.<\/span><\/p>\n “By the end of the first quarter we will take out $10,000 and after that we will go back to new highs \u2014 to $20,000 or more,” Novogratz speculated.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nNovogratz: Taking Out $10K Will Lead to New Highs<\/span><\/h2>\n
