A Regulatory Squeeze A common narrative you hear in crypto is that regulatory clarity will cause institutional investors to flood into the space. It’s often cited as the trigger for the next bull run. However, each time news of regulations hits the headlines markets plummet, and last week’s settlement between the SEC and Kraken was no exception. While it’s true that forward-thinking regulations will help to remove a lot of uncertainty from the space, it’s doubtful it will cause the next bull run. As we’ve seen from the present market

If the global financial system is an ocean and the ships on it represent the different markets, crypto would be the equivalent of a small boat tossed around by the storms we’ve experienced this year. Whatever happens with the development of the technology it’s impossible to avoid the effects of global shifts as we saw last week with the Federal Reserve’s latest rate hike. Even though the news from the Fed was exactly what markets had anticipated and priced in, the response was turbulent which caused more moves to the

Just as bull markets have narratives, so do bear markets, and the overriding narrative of this year has been regulation. Time and again the media has conflated a lack of regulation in crypto with the failures we’ve seen. It’s easy for people to conclude that as soon as regulation comes to crypto, investors will have confidence and flood back into the market. If that was true you would expect to see the stock market flooded with liquidity, but tech stocks are experiencing similar conditions to crypto. Not only is there

This week saw another round of interest rates hikes by central banks to try and control inflation. With all the talk of a potential pivot in monetary policy, interest rates continued their parabolic rise by 75 basis points in the UK, and the US. Initially the Federal Reserve’s announcement of a 0.75% interest rate increase caused markets to jump because this was the rise they’d been expecting and had already priced in. However, in the subsequent press conference the tone was more hawkish which caused the markets to drop a

Several weeks ago we covered Credit Suisse in some of our articles about risk management and regulations. This week they’ve been in the news again for all the wrong reasons, which may have an impact on the crypto market. Once the darling of Wall Street, Credit Suisse is rapidly turning into its nemesis. Following several multi-million dollar fines, they’ve lurched from one scandal to another. In September 2021 the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority issued a statement saying, “The Financial Conduct Authority has fined Credit Suisse over £147 million for serious
