The debate is still on-going if large investments from institutional firms, would be good or bad for Bitcoin in the long run. Some are saying it will bring more volatility and others are just happy that the price will probably go to the Moon.
There are also conspiracy theories doing the rounds that these institutions will use their financial powers to destroy Bitcoin.
Some are even saying that the small fish will be eaten by the big sharks. Let's consider the impact of this and how this will change the Bitcoin scene.
Will Bitcoin go 100% commodity & store of value or will it still be used as a currency?
Uuhm I think there is going to be both the advantages and the disadvantages. Institutions will help to increase the volume of trade for crypto, cause they will be investing and trading huge amounts of money and that means that the cryptocurrency market will be growing really fast in price. But my question is whether they are going to hold their capital in Bitcoin forever? Maybe one day there will be a better option for them and that means that they are going to leave Bitcoin for sure and go for something else, which will cause the market to fall and when it starts falling, smaller investors will start running from it as well, unless they are ready to bear the losses.
