According to the economist and crypto trader, cryptocurrencies will rise in early January before sentiment turns bearish ahead of a meeting of the Open Market Committee (FOMC) to set US monetary policy.

Then risk ahead of the next FOMC (January 26, 2022) when the next inflationary pressures get too hot (January 12, 2022). “

When asked about his outlook for the next year, Kruger says the broader crypto asset sector could grow by at least 30% and up to 50% in 2022.

About a week ago, Kruger said that traders will favor higher interest rates over holders.

“Hiking” Bear market

Hiking = headwind (ceteris paribus flatter slope), increased volatility

This requires higher cash on hand and more aggressive profit taking, that is, a market of the traders rather than a market of the owners.

Not for doomsday views. “
