revealed his insights on the price action of Bitcoin, predicting a
continuous decline in the price of the crypto asset. Analyst Says

He highlighted that the downtrend will continue until Grayscale
Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) is fully “liquidated.” According to him, the
liquidation will be possible with a whopping $25 billion worth of
selling activity over the next few weeks. Terry cites Grayscale’s
choice to keep Bitcoin ETF fees at 1.5% as the cause of what he
sees to be the “biggest strategic error” in cryptocurrency history.
This implies that Grayscale’s action might have a long-term impact
on the crypto market and may prevent wider adoption. The post read:
Looks like the BTC price will continue flat/down until GBTC is
liquidated, $25B of selling over the next few weeks. Grayscale
decision to keep ETF fees at 1.5% will go down as the biggest
strategic error in crypto history. Greedy idiots. His analysis
emphasizes how investment vehicles are interconnected and how this
affects the state of the cryptocurrency market as a whole. However,
this has attracted disbelief from a few famous figures in the
community. One of the figures who has expressed disbelief is Galaxy
Digital CEO Mike Novogratz. He asserted that he “disagrees” with
Chris Terry’s analysis because although Novogratz experts some
selling pressure activity, he believes investors will move to other
ETFs, especially supporting BTCO. Novogratz also pointed out that
the Invesco Galaxy Bitcoin ETF (BTCO) is his favorite among the
products. Furthermore, Novogratz highlights the significance of
maintaining perspective in light of transient market conditions. He
noted that the latest development will facilitate older investors’
or boomers’ entry into the crypto landscape. In addition, he has
highlighted the potential for enhanced leverage by having 4×5
exposure to Bitcoin via BTCO. He then shared an optimistic look,
noting that “BTC will go higher in the next six months after this
indigestion.” BTC Sees $25 Million Outflows A recent report
from Coinshares has revealed that Bitcoin witnessed an outflow of a

trading activity indicates that ETFs account for 63% of all Bitcoin
volumes on reliable exchanges. As of the time of writing, Bitcoin
was trading at $40,827, indicating a decline of 2.16% in the past
day. Despite the price drop, its trading volume is currently up by
over 81% in the last 24 hours. Featured image from iStock, chart
