Bitcoin ETFs debut, regulatory challenges, and the billionth transaction milestone

E3 • May 6, 2024 • 20 mins

In this episode, Roni discusses the cautious approach to crypto investment, the domination of early stage deals in crypto funding, and Bitcoin's wealth democratizing feature. He also touches on Bitcoin ETFs' debut in Hong Kong, regulatory challenges, Bitcoin network's billionth transaction milestone, and a revived dormant Bitcoin address.

Key Points

  • Crypto firms raised a significant $2.5 billion in the first quarter of the year, marking a growth in venture capital investment and deal count, with a particular focus on early-stage companies established between 2021 and 2023.
  • The introduction of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US has added a new layer of liquidity and credibility to Bitcoin, influencing investor strategies and expectations, despite recent negative outflows and the underwhelming performance of Hong Kong's ETF debut.
  • The Bitcoin network celebrated processing its one-billionth transaction, reflecting its reliability and growing adoption, further driven by the launch of novel protocols like ordinals and the introduction of Bitcoin ETFs.
