DataDash recently spoke with Jake, Chief Commercial Officer at Caleb & Brown, a cryptocurrency brokerage that focuses on over-the-counter (OTC) trading and offers both retail and institutional investors access to enhanced liquidity and market insights. Jake shared perspectives on how major institutional players currently view Bitcoin.
-
With Bitcoin approaching new highs, Jake noted a strong institutional interest, as firms now see it as a legitimate hedge and alternative asset, especially validated by major ETFs. This shift is evident in clients like family offices and high-net-worth individuals warming up to Bitcoin.
Jake also pointed to the latest meme coin cycle, which continues to attract retail investors seeking fast returns. However, he highlighted that serious money is focused on Bitcoin and select assets with real use cases.
Looking forward, Jake predicts decentralized finance (DeFi) could gain traction in 2025, especially as protocols like Aave and Compound demonstrate resilience. If regulatory clarity improves, DeFi may become even more appealing to investors across the board.
