KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 2): Digital asset exchange platform Luno Malaysia said the growing interest of institutional investors in cryptocurrency, which drove Bitcoin (BTC)’s price to new highs, will likely continue in 2021.
Luno Malaysia country manager Aaron Tang noted that companies, both big and small, were seen to be investing portions of their cash reserves into BTC, including MicroStrategy, Mass Mutual and Square, which created renewed excitement in cryptocurrencies, reminiscent of the craze in 2017.
“The recent news that the S&P Dow Jones Indices will debut cryptocurrency indices in 2021 should put cryptocurrency in front of even more investors on a daily basis. It is something that has actually been spoken about for the longest time.
