Whale street: How big-money institutional investors are preparing for the next bull run

Whale street: How big-money institutional investors are preparing for the next bull run

Is Wall Street ready for the next bull run? Major institutional investors have been making moves.
    As crypto markets have risen from their slumber this year, institutional investors from Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and beyond are paying attention. Major firms are increasing their investments in crypto, crypto-oriented venture funds are busy raising and deploying capital, and many of the world’s biggest banks are exploring blockchain-native financial products like tokenized treasuries and loans. 
    Institutions are showing rising enthusiasm for altcoins, with investment in products focused on Solana ($8 million), Chainlink ($2 million), Polygon ($0.8 million), and Cardano ($0.5 million) all growing last week.

An Uptober to remember: Crypto markets are rallying — here’s what analysts think might happen next

Could crypto winter finally be over? With BTC, altcoins, and even NFTs getting boosts, “Uptober” lived up to its billing.
    Last week, bitcoin broke the $35,000 level for the first time in 18 months, and prices have mostly remained above $34,000 since. At the same time, a variety of altcoins, decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, and even NFTs have also surged. 
    Web3 services protocol Chainlink recently passed $11.50 for the first time in 16 months and clocked a gain of over 60% last week.
    The month of “Uptober” lived up to its billing, with a number of tokens roaring back to life after months of dormancy. And while nobody can predict the future, some market watchers are more optimistic than they’ve been in a long time — and not just because of the potential for Wall Street to get a spot BTC ETF approved.
