Novogratz’s Crypto Market Insights
During an interview on Thursday with CNBC Squawk Box, billionaire Michael Novogratz, the Chief Executive Officer at Galaxy Digital, shared his perspective on Bitcoin and Ether as long-term and risk-adjusted investments. Novogratz emphasized that although one shouldn’t allocate as much investment to Bitcoin as they would to JPMorgan stock, the volatility-adjusted returns of Bitcoin have outperformed JP Morgan.
Bitcoin Predictions
Novogratz predicts that Bitcoin will spearhead a rally in the crypto market later this year when the Federal Reserve initiates interest rate cuts. However, he acknowledged that the crypto industry has experienced fewer institutional cash inflows since the FTX and Alameda implosion. Nonetheless, Novogratz highlighted the increased accumulation of coins by small retail investors in recent times. Additionally, the surge in attention towards Artificial Intelligence (AI) has diverted the focus of many investors in the past few months.

Are We In An ‘AI Bubble’?
Novogratz expressed his views on the current market scenario by stating, “We are in an A.I bubble. Bubbles always happened around things that fundamentally changed the way we live. They’ve almost happened around the real thing. Just the story is so powerful and people buy way in advance and get caught up in the frenzy.”
