Bitwise Client Bets $11M on Bitcoin During Market Dip

by

Bitwise’s own maestro, Hunter Horsley, reveals that a wealth-management client has slipped $11 million into Bitcoin during the latest market correction, their first flirtation with crypto after two years of keeping it all very proper and conventional.

  • Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley disclosed that a wealth management client invested $11 million in Bitcoin during the recent cryptocurrency market correction
  • The client had been in contact with the asset management firm for approximately two years without previously investing in cryptocurrencies
  • Horsley noted that institutional and high-net-worth investors view the recent market decline as an investment opportunity rather than a risk

The client, who had been batting their eyelashes at the crypto scene for about two years, finally took the plunge during the market pullback, a move Horsley calls their first foray into digital assets.

The executive notes that certain institutional and high-net-worth investors see the crypto dip not as a catastrophe but as a perfectly respectable invitation to buy. Meanwhile, a crowd of others still peers over the balcony, certain that price declines are merely a hazard of the stage door.

Horsley points to Bitcoin’s long-term appeal and its famously limited supply as magnets that keep the wealth-management set’s attention, even as price swings perform their own little comedy routine.

Market analysts suggest that such substantial Bitcoin purchases demonstrate ongoing institutional appetite independent of short-term price fluctuations. They advise investors to employ risk-management strategies-think of it as dressing for a financial waltz rather than a stumble in the dark.
