Galaxy Digital’s CEO, Mike Novogratz, spoke to Bloomberg and made significant statements. The famous billionaire expressed his belief that the removal of bad actors from the crypto world is quite positive for the sector.
Is a Major Change on the Horizon?
Novogratz pointed out the significance of the number of bad actors wiped from the crypto sector during the 2022 crash. He believes that most of the bad actors have withdrawn from the sector, adding “The markets are quite effective, and regulators are quite active.”
The head of Galaxy Digital expects more bad actors in the industry to be punished and mentioned that the US settlement with Binance is great for both the crypto exchange and the industry as a whole.
On the other hand, Novogratz expects the US economy to slow down considerably in the first quarter. While suggesting the “Fed will cut interest rates,” he anticipates that the first rate cut decision in the US will be made in the second quarter of 2024. Market expectations for the upcoming rate cuts, as anticipated by the CEO of Galaxy Digital, are positioned as one of the main catalysts behind the recent rally in the crypto market, apart from the spot Bitcoin ETF.
Novogratz also highlighted that the sharp decline in the dollar index could be the beginning of a major trend shift.
Emphasizes the Upcoming Bitcoin Rally
The famous billionaire continues to maintain his optimism about a new Bitcoin (BTC) rally. In explaining his expectations, Novogratz said, “There are a lot of good things in store for Bitcoin.”
The head of Galaxy Digital mentioned that an anticipated spot Bitcoin ETF in the US would be one of the main catalysts behind the predicted surge. Novogratz expects the price of the largest cryptocurrency to reach much higher levels if the world’s largest asset management companies, BlackRock and Fidelity, can persuade more people to adopt Bitcoin.
