a paper on whether central banks should hold cryptocurrencies as reserves

"If a central bank does decide to purchase cryptocurrency, the central bank faces a choice of whether to publicly reveal that decision. Choosing to conceal the central bank’s Bitcoin allocation might further stymie external attempts to freeze the central bank’s assets. Ferranti (2022) discusses the fact that many central banks do not disclose their fiat reserve currency composition. Revealing the central bank’s cryptocurrency wallets enables public verification of the central bank’s assets, but requires the central bank to accept scrutiny regarding its choice to invest in a highly volatile asset. Aizenman and Inoue (2012) find that central banks tend to underreport their gold holdings to avoid criticism when the price of gold declines.

Lastly, central bank digital currencies may enhance the benefits of cryptocurrency. Theoretically, a central bank could conduct a foreign exchange intervention relying solely upon domestic payments infrastructure by offering to sell the central bank’s cryptocurrency to holders of the central bank’s digital currency. In that sense, a country’s decision to embrace cryptocurrency may boost its resilience to economic shocks."

what even

JUST IN: Tron founder Justin Sun proposes a $1.5 billion offer to acquire Credit Suisse $CS.

observe volume - pretty huge volume on the weekly

weekly market structure broken - higher high established

price trend likely to change in the coming weeks

Balaji, Binance CZ, banks collapsing -> feds printing

many bullish impulses turning the market around

next key resistance is 30k

above 30k with good volume then we'll go higher

JUST IN: UBS to acquire Credit Suisse $CS for over $2 billion, one of the largest banks in the world.

@WatcherGuru

current volume surpasses the volume that took us to a bull run in 2020

more people are fleeing into bitcoin -> more people are aware of bitcoin

with worries of hyperinflation and people fleeing the dollar, gold and btc are the options left

remember to check eligibility for $ARB drop!

I thought I wasn't but turns out I can claim some too

it's free $

https://arbitrum.foundation/

pretty wild guess here

but i'm looking for a pullback to $25k range

likely to be ranging in the days to come for consolidation before proper attempts to break $30k - $32k

unless... something major happens that immediately sends us above the psychological resistance

idt we'll break it on first try (but who knows its crypto and im a pleb)
