JPMorgan on FTX and Bitcoin’s Price
JPMorgan Chase’s analysts, led by global market strategist Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, provided their analysis of the FTX situation and a price prediction for bitcoin in a note Thursday.
The analysts explained that fewer players in the crypto space are now able to rescue weaker players, stating:
What makes this new phase of crypto deleveraging induced by the apparent collapse of Alameda Research and FTX more problematic is that the number of entities with stronger balance sheets able to rescue those with low capital and high leverage is shrinking.
Facing a liquidity crunch, FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried reportedly asked several major crypto exchanges, including Coinbase and Okx, for help. When they turned him down, he approached Binance despite CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) stating that his exchange is демпингдик all of the FTX tokens (FTT) on its books. Binance originally said it would ээ болуу FTX and provide liquidity but after due diligence, the exchange чыгып кетти келишимден.
Crypto investors are concerned about the solvency of FTX.com and trading house Alameda Research. Bankman-Fried, who founded both firms, reportedly told FTX.com investors that his company needs a cash injection to avoid having to file for bankruptcy.
JPMorgan cautioned that a “cascade of margin calls” is likely underway given the interplay between FTX.com, Alameda Research, and the rest of the crypto ecosystem.
The global investment bank warned that the crypto market could face weeks of deleveraging stemming from the crisis at FTX, noting that a period of upheaval could drive the price of BTC down to $13K.
