De cryptomarkt staat er uitstekend voor deze week. Bitcoin blijft stevig boven de psychologische grens van 100.000 dollar, met een huidige koers rond de 102.000 dollar. Beleggers kijken nu gespannen uit naar een mogelijke nieuwe all-time high, met het vorige record van 109.000 dollar in zicht. Ook Ethereum presteert momenteel sterk, met een koerssprong van 1800 dollar naar 2700 dollar, wat suggereert dat de bodem mogelijk gevonden is voor de op één na grootste cryptocurrency. Ondertussen treedt Coinbase toe tot de prestigieuze S&P 500-index, ter vervanging van Discover Financial Services. Het aandeel van de Amerikaanse cryptobeurs schoot direct 24% omhoog, de scherpste stijging sinds de dag na Donald Trumps verkiezingsoverwinning. Om in aanmerking te komen voor de S&P 500 moet een bedrijf winst rapporteren in het laatste kwartaal en cumulatieve winst over de vier meest recente kwartalen. Coinbase rapporteerde een netto-inkomen van 65,6 miljoen dollar en een omzet van 2,03 miljard dollar, een stijging van 24% ten opzichte van vorig jaar. Naast deze mijlpaal kondigde Coinbase plannen aan om het origineel Nederlandse Deribit over te nemen voor 2,9 miljard dollar. Deribit is 's werelds grootste cryptobeurs voor opties, en de overname – de grootste deal in de crypto-industrie tot nu toe – stelt Coinbase in staat om zijn derivatenactiviteiten uit te breiden en zijn voetafdruk buiten de VS te vergroten. De Bitcoin Treasury Company-strategie, bedacht door Michael Saylor van MicroStrategy, krijgt navolging. Strive Asset Management heeft aangekondigd Bitcoin als reserveactiva te gaan gebruiken en via een fusie met Asset Entities naar de Nasdaq te gaan. Door deze aankondiging steeg de aandelenkoers van Asset Entities met liefst 450%. Strive's plannen weerspiegelen de strategie van MicroStrategy, dat inmiddels ongeveer 555.500 Bitcoin bezit, ter waarde van rond de 52 miljard dollar. Het bedrijf heeft GameStop aangemoedigd om dezelfde aanpak te volgen, en hoewel de videogameretailer de stap heeft goedgekeurd, heeft het nog geen Bitcoin aangekocht. Volgens Strive CEO Matt Cole staan "minder dan 1% van de beursgenoteerde bedrijven" momenteel Bitcoin op de balans. Vanuit het Verenigd Koninkrijk komt het nieuws dat GFO-X een handelsplatform heeft gelanceerd voor centraal geclearde digitale activaderivaten. Het platform, dat onder toezicht staat van de Britse FCA, is ontworpen om te voldoen aan de institutionele vraag naar transparante en conforme futures en opties voor digitale activa. De eerste institutionele transactie tussen Virtu Financial en IMC werd uitgevoerd op GFO-X en centraal gecleard via LCH DigitalAssetClear.
