Bitcoin soared about 200% last year. In","content":"<p>The price of Bitcoin has been going through the roof lately. Bitcoin soared about 200% last year.&nbsp;Institutional interest&nbsp;has mainly led to this buoyancy.&nbsp; The cryptocurrency took less than a month to cross the difference of $20,000 in value as it hit the $20,000 mark for the first time on Dec 16 and touched $40,000 on Jan 7. If this was not enough, bitcoin crossed the 47,000 mark on Feb 8.</p>\n<p>The latest all-time high level was attained by virtue of Tesla’s investment of $1.5 billion, which made it the biggest company to show support to the otherwisecontroversial cryptocurrency.Tesla would start accepting payment for its electric vehicles in the currency. Before this,<b>PayPal Holdings Inc</b>&nbsp;had also announced such a move. PayPal's competitor&nbsp;<b>Square</b>&nbsp;launched support&nbsp;for bitcoin back in 2018&nbsp;through its Cash app. Square also&nbsp;bought $50 million in bitcoin&nbsp;in October as part of a larger investment in cryptocurrency.</p>\n<p>Corporations’ greater acceptance in allowing customers to hold bitcoin and other virtual coins in their online wallets has been favoring the cryptocurrency.&nbsp;Facebook-backed cryptocurrency Libra has also been&nbsp;rebranded “Diem”&nbsp;in an effort to gain regulatory approval by refurbishing the project in a simpler manner. It is run by a consortium called the Diem Association.</p>\n<p>David Marcus, the head of Facebook Financial, also known as F2, said he hopes the&nbsp;cryptocurrency called Diem&nbsp;will hit the market in 2021. A bitcoin ETF could finally see the day of the light in 2021 as VanEck recently filed an application with the SEC. Notably, the SEC had earlier rejected several bitcoin ETF proposals (read:&nbsp;VanEck Files for a Bitcoin ETF All Over Again).</p>\n<p><b>More Corporate Acceptance Awaiting Ahead?</b>Antoni Trenchev, managing partner and co-founder of Nexo in London (one of the world’s biggest crypto lender), expects at least 10% of S&amp;P 500 companies to remain invested in Bitcoin by the end of 2022,as quoted in a source.</p>\n<p>Sergey Nazarov, the cofounder of Chainlink, said a few days back that “rising inflation and increasingly negative views of modern monetary policy are forcing investors to look for alternative ways to preserve the value of their capital,”&nbsp;as quoted on Businessinsider.&nbsp;Investors are probably viewing it as a&nbsp;hedge against inflation&nbsp;and an alternative to the depreciating dollar, per market watchers.</p>\n<p><b>Will the Rally Continue?</b>The biggest problem with bitcoin mining is that the number of coins will be fixed. “Bitcoin was designed to be created at a fixed rate, which means miners must compete against each other to win coins. The number of bitcoins created annually automatically decreases over time and issuance will end with a total of 21 million bitcoins in circulation. The more time passes, the harder computers have to work to mine new bitcoins. There are currently more than 18 million bitcoins in circulation,”per a Reuters article.</p>\n<p>So, there is no way that the 21 million will be exhausted soon. But will it be interesting to see what happens after that? Yes, “the bitcoin mining process provides bitcoin rewards to miners, but the reward size is decreased periodically to control the circulation of new tokens,” as indicated byan Investopedia article.</p>\n<p>If more circulation of currency is not possible with economic growth, one should not expect much stability in that currency’s trading. Bitcoin has been extremely volatile in the past, and will continue to remain so in the future too. Plus, one should take a closer look at the inflationary scenario. If there is disinflation in various parts of the globe due to any further COVID-19 crisis, bitcoin may slip again.</p>\n<p><b>Stocks to Play</b>Hence, it is wise bet on Crypto Innovators that are more stable.'Crypto Innovators' are the stocks of \"companiesthat service and transact in the segment of the economy dealing with crypto assets and distributed ledger technology (e.g., blockchain technology).\"</p>\n<p><b>Riot Blockchain</b> – The Zacks Rank #3 company leverages its expertise and network to build and support blockchain technology companies. Shares surged 40.3% on Feb 8.</p>\n<p><b>NVIDIA</b>&nbsp;– The company&nbsp;is poised to benefit from its GPUs in the cryptocurrency space.Chinese cryptocurrency miners are dealing with a scarcity of Nvidia's&nbsp;GeForce RTX&nbsp;30 desktop graphics cards by turning to GeForce RTX&nbsp;30-powered laptops, according to social media posts examined by&nbsp;Wccftech&nbsp;and&nbsp;Cointelegraph,as quoted on seekingalpha. NVDA was up 6.2% on Feb 8.</p>\n<p><b>Cleanspark Inc.</b>&nbsp;– The Zacks Rank #3 microgrid company provides energy software and control technology.

Bitcoin soared about 200% last year. Institutional interest has mainly led to this buoyancy.  The cryptocurrency took less than a month to cross the difference of $20,000 in value as it hit the $20,000 mark for the first time on Dec 16 and touched $40,000 on Jan 7. If this was not enough, bitcoin crossed the 47,000 mark on Feb 8.\nThe latest all-time high level was attained by virtue of Tesla’s investment of $1.5 billion, which made it the biggest company to show support to the otherwisecontroversial cryptocurrency.Tesla would start accepting payment for its electric vehicles in the currency. Before this,PayPal Holdings Inc had also announced such a move. PayPal's competitor Square launched support for bitcoin back in 2018 through its Cash app. Square also bought $50 million in bitcoin in October as part of a larger investment in cryptocurrency.\nCorporations’ greater acceptance in allowing customers to hold bitcoin and other virtual coins in their online wallets has been favoring the cryptocurrency. Facebook-backed cryptocurrency Libra has also been rebranded “Diem” in an effort to gain regulatory approval by refurbishing the project in a simpler manner. It is run by a consortium called the Diem Association.\nDavid Marcus, the head of Facebook Financial, also known as F2, said he hopes the cryptocurrency called Diem will hit the market in 2021. A bitcoin ETF could finally see the day of the light in 2021 as VanEck recently filed an application with the SEC. Notably, the SEC had earlier rejected several bitcoin ETF proposals (read: VanEck Files for a Bitcoin ETF All Over Again).\nMore Corporate Acceptance Awaiting Ahead?Antoni Trenchev, managing partner and co-founder of Nexo in London (one of the world’s biggest crypto lender), expects at least 10% of S&P 500 companies to remain invested in Bitcoin by the end of 2022,as quoted in a source.\nSergey Nazarov, the cofounder of Chainlink, said a few days back that “rising inflation and increasingly negative views of modern monetary policy are forcing investors to look for alternative ways to preserve the value of their capital,” as quoted on Businessinsider. Investors are probably viewing it as a hedge against inflation and an alternative to the depreciating dollar, per market watchers.\nWill the Rally Continue?The biggest problem with bitcoin mining is that the number of coins will be fixed. “Bitcoin was designed to be created at a fixed rate, which means miners must compete against each other to win coins. The number of bitcoins created annually automatically decreases over time and issuance will end with a total of 21 million bitcoins in circulation. The more time passes, the harder computers have to work to mine new bitcoins. There are currently more than 18 million bitcoins in circulation,”per a Reuters article.\nSo, there is no way that the 21 million will be exhausted soon. But will it be interesting to see what happens after that? Yes, “the bitcoin mining process provides bitcoin rewards to miners, but the reward size is decreased periodically to control the circulation of new tokens,” as indicated byan Investopedia article.\nIf more circulation of currency is not possible with economic growth, one should not expect much stability in that currency’s trading. Bitcoin has been extremely volatile in the past, and will continue to remain so in the future too. Plus, one should take a closer look at the inflationary scenario. If there is disinflation in various parts of the globe due to any further COVID-19 crisis, bitcoin may slip again.\nStocks to PlayHence, it is wise bet on Crypto Innovators that are more stable.'Crypto Innovators' are the stocks of \"companiesthat service and transact in the segment of the economy dealing with crypto assets and distributed ledger technology (e.g., blockchain technology).\"\nRiot Blockchain – The Zacks Rank #3 company leverages its expertise and network to build and support blockchain technology companies. Shares surged 40.3% on Feb 8.\nNVIDIA – The company is poised to benefit from its GPUs in the cryptocurrency space.Chinese cryptocurrency miners are dealing with a scarcity of Nvidia's GeForce RTX 30 desktop graphics cards by turning to GeForce RTX 30-powered laptops, according to social media posts examined by Wccftech and Cointelegraph,as quoted on seekingalpha. NVDA was up 6.2% on Feb 8.\nCleanspark Inc. – The Zacks Rank #3 microgrid company provides energy software and control technology.

First, the Switch can be used as either a handheld device or a console docked to a TV. That unique form factor leveraged the strengths of Nintendo's earlier handhelds (including the Game Boy and 3DS) to challenge Microsoft and Sony in the home console market.</p>\n<p>Second, Nintendo launched plenty of exclusive first-party games for&nbsp;the Switch, including<i>Mario Kart 8 Deluxe</i>,<i>Animal Crossing: New Horizons</i>,<i>Super Smash Bros. Ultimate</i>,<i>The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild</i>, and<i>Super Mario Odyssey</i>. Gamers needed to buy a Switch to play those games, while many popular Xbox One and PS4 games were cross-platform titles that were also available on PCs.</p>\n<p>Lastly, Nintendo continued to refresh the console to attract new customers. In 2019, it upgraded the original Switch with a new chipset that extended its battery life, then launched the cheaper handheld-only Switch Lite for budget-conscious consumers.</p>\n<p><b>How fast is Nintendo growing?</b></p>\n<p>Nintendo's sales surged 116% in&nbsp;fiscal 2017, thanks to the Switch's arrival, and rose 14% in 2018 and another 9% in 2019.</p>\n<p>Nintendo's growth has been decelerating, but it expects its sales to rise 22% in fiscal 2020, which ends in late March, buoyed by strong sales of the Switch, Switch Lite, and its first-party games.</p>\n<p>Standout games include<i>Animal Crossing: New Horizons</i>, which became a virtual social platform throughout the pandemic;<i>Paper Mario: The Origami King</i>;<i>Super Mario 3D All-Stars</i>; and<i>Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit</i>, which lets players race through AR tracks at home with radio-controlled cars.</p>\n<p>Robust sales of the Switch boosted Nintendo's operating margin from 6% in fiscal 2016 to 26.9% in 2019, and it expects that ratio to hit 35% in 2020. That margin expansion caused Nintendo's net profit to rise 36% in fiscal 2017, 39% in 2018, and another 33% in 2019. It expects that streak to continue with 55% profit growth in fiscal 2020.</p>\n<p><b>Why Nintendo still has room to run</b></p>\n<p>Nintendo's growth rates look fantastic, and its stock has already risen more than 60% over the past 12 months. But I believe it can still head even higher, for a few simple reasons.</p>\n<p>Nintendo's ADR shares only trade at 19 times next year's earnings. The stock remains cheap because analysts expect Nintendo's revenue and earnings to dip 4% and 2%, respectively, next year, presumably as it faces tough year-over-year comparisons and fresh competition from Sony and Microsoft's newest consoles.</p>\n<p>But those estimates could be too low, and probably don't factor in the potential launch of a \"Switch Pro\" model in 2021 or the resilience of its hybrid form factor and first-party games against the PS5 and Xbox Series S and X consoles. Those tailwinds could help Nintendo easily clear Wall Street's low expectations -- and force analysts to raise their conservative estimates.</p>\n<p><b>The key takeaway</b></p>\n<p>GameStop's bulls often&nbsp;claim robust sales of the Nintendo Switch, which runs some of its games on physical cartridges, will bring more shoppers to its stores.

If they failed strike a deal with publishers, a government-appointed arbitrator would decide the price.\nWhile Google's public stance on potentially leaving the country remains firm, Australia's Treasurer Josh Frydenberg said Google's approach had been \"constructive\" in recent days during private meetings.\n\"The Prime Minister (Scott Morrison) and myself and (Communications Minister) Paul Fletcher had a very constructive discussion with the head of Google just yesterday,\" Frydenberg told reporters in Melbourne on Friday.\n\"In that discussion ... they re-committed to Australia, we re-committed [to the legislation].\"\nGoogle did not immediately respond to requests for comment on its contacts with the government.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":123,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":165748832,"gmtCreate":1624159217126,"gmtModify":1703829768767,"author":{"id":"3561094282501483","authorId":"3561094282501483","name":"DarrenToh","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3561094282501483","authorIdStr":"3561094282501483"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"YMM looks interesting.
