In an interview with Cointelegraph, Fidelity Digital Assets Head of Research
Chris Kuiper said Bitcoin price still has significant “upper potential”, and
is a less risky investment given its 13-year track record.
And, he believes, Bitcoin will become a major part of the cryptocurrency
ecosystem in the future, regardless of the developments taking place within
it.
According to him, Bitcoin will still be the main “anchor” for other
cryptocurrencies in a scenario where multiple blockchains coexist.
Matthew Dibb, Chief Operating Officer of Stack Funds based in Singapore,
said he is bullish on cryptocurrencies in the long term as an alternative
asset and a hedge for world events.
"But that's not enough. We're starting to see some differences between
Bitcoin and the stock market, which is very good," he told Reuters.
