Big institutional money has yet to enter the field.

Wild price swings is the only way for Bitcoin to communicate and attract liquidity. If you take that away, what is there for institutions to be interested in?

It's good to state that the term institution doesn't necessarily refer to one specific legal entity. Banks absolutely crave for severe volatility their HF bots are ready to exploit, and they are present already. In that sense, the institutions are in already, but with pocket change through proxies and whatnot.

Pension funds are always the last to enter with how they generally tend to respect the rules, and I'm happy they do. They will be the cherry on top of the pie later on when the market is mature enough to be bought into. By that time they will likely buy exposure through an ETF.

Agree, we are all waiting for institutional investors and their money, but how to solve valotile and manipulation issues?

Huge amounts of money have yet to come in. I'm talking about pension funds, teacher retirement funds and large index funds. They're not in the realm of cryptography right now, but they're just around the corner. There are two reasons. First, there is a lack of hosting services to help them provide/buy/store passwords. Second, it's too unstable for them. That has turned most of the big money going into crypto into technology-focused venture funds and some family offices.

You have a very good point. But if we can put our hands together in crypto, we might see this large institutions coming in. What that means will be more investment funds and stable prices.

I am believe they already in the field even in a little amount. They always push the price first to get cheaper price. We know that Goldman Sachs already buying exchanger and its means they already put their money.

[LeGaulois]

Grayscale is managing money and invest in like Horizen, Bitcoin, Ripple...
There is more institutional money than what you can though, it's just that they don't want to be known for the public as investing in.
The real big ones invest in their own infrastructure

[denuhaqiqi]

instability is an important point in their absence in crypto. besides, the institution complies with the rules. so that an open regulation is needed to be able to pull it into the crypto. we can see it in countries that make regulations that are open to crypto, so they can attract outside investors or their own institutions and create a good investment climate for them.

I think it won't enter any time soon. We are talking about "big" institutional money and if its really that big it should be over 100's of million dollars for each, a total of billions of dollars together.

We are having trouble whenever someone sells 15k bitcoin and our market cripples and stays low for a long time when that happens, 15k bitcoin worths about 100 million dollars right now, if one 100 million dollar made our market this way can you think how much billions of dollars would affect the market ? For better or worse it would change the market drastically. Noone in their right mind would invest hundreds of million dollars into something this fragile.

Both reasons are the same reasons that crypto currency haven't been adopted by local business to exchange their products and services to. I myself have invested some of my grandparent's pension on crypto currency and they've gained alot these past 3 years. I just hope that we will see adoption of it sooner than later.

Yes, and somehow I think huge people are just delaying it in order for some people in the market to go out before they start the bull run again.

[/quote really? How can I believe this? Although retirement is for investment, I can not believe they've invested in the Crypto market. This is a very risky market and they can lose their retirement funds. I think this is a certain confusion.

they are looking for the right time to enter tmarket, of course with predictions of investors starting to enter market, of course big investors immediately take positions, so that they immediately get profit effectively

[Lighthouze]

The inherent risks involved with pumping institutional money in crypto with it's high volatility is what is scaring the big money guys from this space for now, except of course the ETF gets approved.

[selardkinley]

I am not too sure if they will be capable of getting in neither. Not at these volumes they will not. They are basically waiting for the volume to be high enough that they can enter without causing a price fluctuation. Right now if couple banks with couple billions gets in and than you will have bitcoin moving up like crazy and swing one way to another like a ship on a big wave.

However they can't afford a risk like that, it is not in the nature of banks to get into risky stuff they can't control, if they can control the risk it is fine by them (look at the big mortgage crisis in 08) however bitcoin is out of their reach and can't be controlled and if they get in with billions and try to get out the more likely outcome will be a loss for them and a crippling market for all of us.

Today, the capitalization of all cryptocurrencies registered on the CMC is about 212 billion dollars. Someone consider it a huge money, someone on the contrary says that it is too small for all cryptocurrencies today.
Think about these figures: today the state of Warren Buffett is 66 billion, the state of Bill Gates is 79 billion, and the state of Carlos slim-72 billion Dollars.
So how much do you think it is or little 212 billion for the cryptocurrency market? I think it is very small and all the main money and huge funds have not yet come to this market. If you look even more globally, the percentage of capitalization of cryptocurrencies is only 0.013% of the money supply of the whole world-this is a needle in a haystack!
The time will come and the cryptocurrency market will become more stable and we will not go anywhere when the giants of the financial industry also want to earn money here and you will see a real influx of capital into crypto. Hold on friends soon should break through!

In the country in which I live, legislation is already being prepared to regulate cryptocurrency, as well as preparing a law on the introduction of a blockchain into a pension fund. I think that in many developed countries the laws are ready and the process of introducing the blockchain into many areas of social life has begun.

This will definitely be happen as the blockchain have been very popular. More and more are starting to like the technology which means that big institution can't avoid the fact that they are also getting interested. Adoption is already been started and definitely in the near future, this'll be much more topic to be discussed.

[wingsthegreat21]

Definitely yes and sooner or later when theres enough people that won't accept fiat anymore, institutions will jump into cryptocurrencies. Otherwise they're just doomed to see themselves loose their grasp on people and I totally agree that there is always a new currency that will hit every industry.

with the tectonic advantages offered, of course, many people will choose the effective and efficient way. the proof is now banks have begun to use that system to facilitate their duties

Yes, adoption is already been started that anytime in the near future we will see a lot of stores and services that will accept the cryptocurrency as a payment system on which could give a big help for everyone because it can help them to give a fast and secure transaction to every user that makes them satisfied and improve their financial status in life while using it.
