Wall street grows ever more certain Bitcoin is a bubble. I can't even say they're wrong. Flirting with $6000 per coin and low economic utility? For as dumb as Jamie Dimon sounds every time he says anything about Bitcoin, the tulip bubble analogy looks less and less inappropriate all the time.

In a note to clients published on Thursday, analysts at UBS took a long look at Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and the blockchain technology that underwrites this whole enterprise.

Looking only at pricing, UBS said that, a twenty-fold increase in bitcoin prices in just two years, and an absence of any fundamental economic backing, cryptocurrency prices are almost certainly a bubble.

Blockchain utility doesn't make crypto not a bubble. That'll be important to remember for people buying now expecting to make big gains at this cost basis, and there's real risk there.

Bitcoin is very risky, but bitcoin is not a bubble that can explode at any time. Bitcoin is unstable and it's high risk, and I think people who do not like bitcoin will regard it as a bubble.

I think very simply that if Bitcoin is a bubble, it has been broken for a long time and can not be as valid today. Bitcoin is increasingly asserting its value in the world financial markets. To me Bitcoin has never been a bubble.
