After an impressive start of the year, digital asset markets paused for breath in February. The performance of Bitcoin and Ethereum was relatively flat, with the total crypto market cap mostly unchanged at $1 trillion. Although crypto derivatives trading volume remained high, the volatility was subdued over the month.
The positive tailwinds of improved macro sentiment and an attractive valuation that fuelled the January rally were offset by renewed QT concerns on the back of a strong US labour market and elevated service sector inflation. In addition, the SEC regulatory scrutiny of digital asset participants, ongoing Voyager portfolio liquidations, the Shanghai upgrade and Mt. Gox creditors’ anticipated redemptions all weighed on market sentiment.
As we look ahead beyond the wall of worry, the underlying fundamental trend is still very much supportive for growing digital asset adoption and associated value creation. In the background, we are seeing increased ecosystem participation from established and well funded players. Building takes time, but will inevitably lead to digital asset value creation, stored and exchanged on the blockchain.
This is why we remain committed to building the best-in-class blockchain infrastructure and digital asset management products to meet the growing demand from the institutional investors. Our aim is to remove complexity and enable you to safely access growing digital asset opportunities.
