More crypto rich...

According to a report by Kaiko Research, BTC’s latest rally is creating about 1500 millionaire wallets daily. However, despite the increase in Bitcoin (BTC) millionaire wallets, Kaiko Research notes that the number of millionaire wallets created daily during the 2021 bull run was closer to 4000, more than double the current number. According to Kaiko Research, low millionaire wallets could be due to the lack of new capital. The report notes, ‘In 2021, there was a huge influx in capital as all manner of bull sought to benefit from the crypto hype. This time around, whales could be taking a more cautious approach, waiting to see if the gains have legs before investing.‘ https://lnkd.in/eabkjiHh

Annualize that, and you get a shocking number. Source: BofA

Interesting chart by TheMacroCompass.com

cryptos and gold are impossible to value but they are in some extent comparables in the role they play as an alternative to the fiat money system. Currently, Gold is 20.5% of the Fiat money in the 5 largest economies. After recent rally, the total cryptocurrencies market cap is just 3.4%. If you think teh gap between gold and cryptos should continue to narrow, there might be further upside. NB: this is NOT an investemnt recommendation
