On April 28, The Block reported that Geoffrey Kendrick, head of global digital asset research at Standard Chartered Bank, said that Bitcoin is on track to refresh its all-time high of about $120,000 in the second quarter, a trend that will be driven by a strategic reallocation of funds from U.S. assets to other areas, and now is the time to “buy”. In a new report released on Monday, Kendrick noted: “A number of indicators support the view that we believe Bitcoin will enter a new round of gains. The U.S. Treasury maturity premium (highly correlated with Bitcoin) is currently at a 12-year high. By trading session, U.S. investors may be looking to allocate to non-U.S. assets. At the same time, Bitcoin “whales” (large coin holders) are actively increasing their holdings. In addition, ETF flows over the past week have shown that some safe-haven funds are shifting from gold to bitcoin.”
