Investment Opportunity
Double-Digit Returns, Low Risk Profile, Alternative Credit
- Trading digital currencies, like Bitcoin, vs fiat currencies is a niche, but rapidly growing market.
- As there are few providers of the liquidity required to enable leveraged trading, traders are willing to pay double digit, short term interest rates to take advantage of Bitcoin’s high volatility.
- There is strong demand for margin trade finance in Digital Currencies with up to $1.5bn borrowed on exchanges at any point in time.
- Given the high rate of fiat money printing, institutions are increasingly using digital currency to achieve uncorrelated returns and as a hedge against inflation, similar to gold.
- Barriers to entry are high so there are few institutional providers of margin financing.
