This Rally • Bitcoin Market Cap Surpasses Facebook • Why #Ethereum Is Undervaluedhttps://t.co/2N4Wu2xeD7 — Pantera Capital (@PanteraCapital) January 15, 2021 The hedge fund also compares the current crypto market rally with that of 2017 and finds that the improvement in the current situation has to do with the overall market composition and where value is located. As per the report, majority of the value of the current market is consolidated in Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH). A possible reason for this includes institutional investors’ focus on Bitcoin (BTC) as an entry point in the crypto market and the increased DeFi sector with its underlying asset ETH. Both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) account for 86% of the market volume, as opposed to roughly 50% in 2017. Pantera Predicts Bitcoin to Reach 115,000 Pantera Capital started its January newsletter by highlighting the price movements of bitcoin since the halving in May 2020. After explaining the theoretical effects of the halving on bitcoin supply and pricing, the company presented a somewhat accurate prediction of the cryptocurrency. As per the report, the crypto market lagged by as much as 15 weeks during the summer of 2020 in comparison to the projected price set by Pantera. By the end of Dec. 2020, the market price of bitcoin was almost equal to Pantera’s prediction. By mid-January, the projection was behind by one week. Pantera has projected a price of around $45,268 on Feb. 15, 2021. Meanwhile, on Aug. 1, 2021, Pantera has predicted that the price of Bitcoin (BTC) will peak at $115,212.
