BlockBeats News, January 14 — Charles Edwards, founder of Bitcoin and digital asset quant fund Capriole, stated, "Retail investors are not important in the recovery of the crypto market. Take gold as an example; its market size is more than 10 times that of Bitcoin. What we truly need is the inflow of institutional funds, which are the driving force behind Bitcoin’s price increase.
If we really want Bitcoin to achieve a genuine rise, we must eliminate those obvious and significant risks to maximize institutional allocation willingness. For Bitcoin, the only and most core headwind risk at the moment is quantum computing."
