What a week in crypto?


Sometimes, weeks can go by in the crypto world without as much as a ripple.

This week wasn’t one of them.

Today, in my first ever report, I’ll be taking a look back at the last couple of weeks in crypto. And let me just start by saying, “I told you so.”

Since November 1st, the crypto market has broken that all-important US$14,000 level for Bitcoin. Bitcoin has truly boomed, peaking at $18,000. That’s 28% up in just two weeks. And Bitcoin’s not the only one feeling the heat. ETH is up 22%, and the total market capitalisation has jumped $100bn – or 25%.

For Dacxi, the week’s biggest story was Litecoin. As part of our Blue Chip Bundle, I was a little concerned that it was under-performing, and slipping down the rankings. Turns out I needn’t have worried. This month, Litecoin’s up a massive 50%, and has re-staked its claim as the world’s 5th largest crypto. It just goes to show, Dacxi’s pioneering portfolio approach to crypto really is the smartest investment strategy.

So that was the week just past. As for the Future? Who knows. The way things are headed, the market is likely to challenge the all-time highs of US$20,000 on Bitcoin. My personal hot take is that we could also see some consolidation soon. No-one really knows for sure – and really, it shouldn’t matter. As long as you stay laser-focused on buying for the long term, things are looking up.

Dacxi is proud to support people on a path to prosperity with crypto. If you would like to find out more then please join us at dacxi.com. We’re here to help.

  I lost my bet We messed up pretty bad. All of the core staff in Dacxi lost the bet we made in January 2020 on what the price of Bitcoin would be in USD by the end of 2020. Most people guessed between $10 and14k. And if it was above 14k we would grow beards, so no one was surprised when they had to start growing facial hair at the beginning of this week! Being the eternal optimist that I am, my guess was 20k. As of today, Bitcoin is $23,400 up 22% on the week, and still 10 days to go till the end of the year. Will it breach $25k or correct down to $20k? Who knows? And frankly who cares! The buzz behind crypto grows every week, helping all of us to establish crypto as a new asset class and paving the way for more and more people to have access to something they have never had before. Nigeria is the perfect example of why BTC will succeed. The central bank has blocked access to international bank remittances in local currency (Naira). Many Nigerians sending money through these inter...

How crypto has helped me live life on my terms?

"Financial freedom has been a long and winding road for me, and crypto has been an important part of that journey." Financial freedom has been a long and winding road for me, and crypto has been an important part of that journey. Looking back there’s definitely some reoccurring themes whilst I discovered my passion and purpose. I grew up in the East End of London in the seventies, where there weren’t really any entrepreneurial or business minded people as mentors.   I think we all grow up with a certain amount of baggage from the stories your parents tell you around money, and whilst we were OK financially I definitely picked up the scarcity mindset, and can remember hearing comments like “money doesn’t grow on trees” or “it’s the root of all evil”.    Growing up I really wanted to be a teacher, and often delivered lessons to a row of my teddies and dolls!   Unfortunately, my school wasn’t the most supportive, particularly as I really hated reading in public, and t...

Elon Musk: Crypto’s most important fan

This week Elon Musk announced that Tesla was purchasing $1.5bn worth of bitcoin, and intends to accept bitcoin as a form of payment. The market reacted rapturously, flying to an all-time high over $48,200 appreciating a jaw-dropping 20% in one day, a record single-day dollar growth. What this news means for the crypto industry more broadly, cannot be underestimated. It is praise indeed that one of the world’s richest men backs crypto, particularly one whose business ethos is to be a renegade thinker pushing the boundaries of mankind itself! Whilst there is much talk of reaching a long awaited “tipping point”, this over-simplifies the significance of the events of the last few days. Of course, Musk’s praise of bitcoin has attracted much attention in the traditional media, who have long been hostile to crypto, limiting their commentary to the two main themes of “scam” or “fad”. The rally now seems to be indicative that crypto is held to be a mainstream asset; indeed, bitcoin now has a ...
