Look At $MARA Again As Bitcoin On The Rise?

Bitcoin - One year chart

On 08 Nov 2021, Bitcoin peaked at US$65,019 per coin (ball park).

Interestingly, Bitcoin peaked during the covid period.

Could it be that people were awashed with liquidity at that point in time and decided to speculate & drive the price up, up, up?

On 21 Nov 2022, Bitcoin bottomed at US$16,617 per coin (ball park) - see above.

It has fallen a whooping -US$48,402 per coin or -74.44%.

It took Bitcoin almost 8 months to “sort of” achieved a new 2023 peak of US$31,030 per coin (ball park) on 14 Jul 2023.

It has come off from that peak but from the recent last 7 days chart (see below), it is rising again.

Bitcoin - Last 7 days activities

Catalyst @ Work?

There is reason for celebration (see above).

  • Crypto asset manager Grayscale Investments has been entangled in a legal tussle with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

  • Over its proposal to convert its Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), into an ETF.

  • The SEC had earlier denied Grayscale’s proposal, citing concerns over market manipulation.

  • In June 2022, Grayscale countersue SEC arguing that it had acted arbitrarily in approving ETFs investing in bitcoin futures contracts while rejecting products that aimed to hold bitcoin directly.

  • The Federal appeals court ruled in favour of Grayscale Investment and compelled SEC to reevaluate its earlier denial of Grayscale’s proposal.

  • The judgement sent ripples across the Crypto industry, leading to an immediate surge in Bitcoin prices.

  • More important, it offers for the approval of Spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US.

Funds houses who have applied to SEC for Spot Bitcoin ETF includes:
  • BlackRock

  • WisdomTree

  • Invesco Galaxy Bitcoin ETF

  • Valkyrie Investments

  • Ark Invest

  • VanEck

  • Fidelity/Wise Origin

While I appreciate the noble “theory” behind Bitcoin and its self-regulating process; I have been largely disappointed by its “twisted” application - thanks to Wall Street.

How do I reconcile what I believed in and hopefully be able to benefit from it?

So I chose to look at Bitcoin Mining stocks.

These companies form the backbone of Bitcoin (crypto) to ensure its running judiciously.

Is It Time?

With Bitcoin coming back into the limelight, the perennial question returns - is it time to get involve with Bitcoin again?

Marathon Digital Hldgs - Past month performance

  • On 08 Sep 2023, Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA) was trading at $12.36.

  • The stock has seen a decline of -21.37% in the past month (see above).

  • The dip is (of course) is directly related to Bitcoin’s price movement.

  • Bitcoin’s price dipped as inflation-related fears resulted in investors shunning more speculative investments like (a) cryptocurrencies and (b) high-growth tech stocks.

  • Of late, it is trading higher again (see above).

    Is Bitcoin really limited? Every day, they create more Bitcoin out of thin air just like the other 23,000 crypto "coins". They'll do this for another 120 years.

      the amount of Bitcoins mined is limited to a very tiny amount every year. but the total supply of Bitcoin is hard capped at 21 million coins. which makes Bitcoin even scarcer than gold. the supply of Bitcoin is tightly controlled by computer code. it cannot just be printed at will like dollars

      the current supply of Bitcoin is 19 million coins today. in the year 2100 it will hit the maximum of 21 million coins. so the inflation rate is almost zero.

      I have forgotten but there is a limit to the amount of BTC that could be mined.  However becos BTC is sliced down to many decimal places, it will take a bit of time to reach the limit.

    BTC has generally proven to be profitable to numerous individuals around the world but personally you will never understand how profitable bitcoin is until you start investing with the right broker.
