"The idea of investing solely and exclusively to speculate is going to lose steam, and that is a good thing," says Barry Norris, of Argonaut Capital. Norris's words make special sense when you consider his crypto-skeptic past (and present) backed by getting a 50% return by going short on MicroStrategy.
"Most people who refer to crypto with even religious reverence have no idea about investing ... let's see where that gets them," Norris cautions.

"There are small details that invite optimism in bitcoin after a collapse from the annual and historical highs ($ 65,520)", concedes the technical analyst of Bolsamanía, J.M. Rodríguez, despite the fact that "we still don't have a return as such."
"Everything suggests that bitcoin can attack at any time the important resistance it has at $ 41,335: June highs and last declining high," he concludes.
