Wall Street investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald has even gone as far as comparing Bitcoin’s latest bear market to a “final stage” and, quoting them, it could be “only a few months from the bottom of this pullback.” Their sentiments depict that traditional finance desks are increasingly following developments in on-chain and ETF-driven liquidity.

The downside risk is the combination of regulatory uncertainty and macro volatility, whereas the upsides are defined by better ETF rails and a more favorable market structure.
