QCP expects current momentum to push the bitcoin price back to all-time highs
QCP Capital expects the bitcoin price to return to $74,000 after the latest CPI print saw risk assets surge.
"We expect bullish momentum here that could take us back to the highs of 74k," the institutional-focused firm wrote in the Telegram channel QCP Broadcast, citing buy-side demand.
"The desk saw sizeable buyers of 100-120k BTC +6.45% Calls for Dec 2024 on this move higher in spot," it explained while stating that "institutional demand for the BTC continues to grow with large asset managers Millennium and Schonfeld investing approximately 3% and 2% of their AUM into the BTC spot ETF."
As The Block reported yesterday, hedge fund Millennium Management had invested nearly $2 billion into bitcoin ETFs as of the first financial quarter.
Meanwhile, spot bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. recorded a total daily net inflow of $302.97 million yesterday — the largest since May 3 — preceding reports that the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group is planning to launch bitcoin spot trading.
"The stars seem to be aligning on this breakout, with significant sovereign and institutional adoption, abating inflation, and upcoming US elections," QCP Capital summarized.
Bitcoin is currently trading above $66,175 and is up 6.53%, per The Block's Bitcoin Price Page .

Major capital shift! Investors in Hong Kong and parts of Shanghai turn bearish on storage
A Bank of America roadshow indicates that Hong Kong investors have become noticeably bearish on storage stocks, with some having already reduced their holdings early. Meanwhile, after visiting Shanghai, analyst Jukan straightforwardly stated he has "lost the conviction to hold"—local veteran investors pointed out that even if the P/E ratio of storage stocks is only 3, should prices fall below the LTA in 2028 and trigger a default, the actual valuation would soar to 7.8 to 10 times, which is not cheap.
After the "bloodbath" in tech stocks, Anthropic IPO faces a crisis: Is it still worth $1.5 trillion? Should it go public at this moment?
As $2.5 trillion was wiped out from tech stocks in a single day, the IPO plans of AI star Anthropic are on shaky ground. Three major investors have explicitly questioned the $1.5 trillion target valuation, with some parties believing its actual value is closer to $1 trillion. Doubts have also emerged over whether the November roadshow will proceed as planned. Ongoing losses, missing key revenue data, and sudden shifts in AI policy—all add up to multiple headwinds, causing this listing, once poised to set the record for the largest IPO in history, to now face three tough choices: a discounted valuation, a reduced offering, or outright postponement.
