도지코인(CRYPTO: DOGE)은 이번 주에 암호화폐 시장의 전반적인 하락세 속에서 급격한 유턴을 보였지만, 낙관론을 꺾지는 못했다.
무슨 일 있었나: 개를 주제로 한 밈 코인인 도지코인은 이번 주에 7일 최고가인 0.48달러에서 19%까지 하락했다. 월요일 비트코인(CRYPTO: BTC) 의 플래시 크래시로 인해 하락세가 가속화된 것이다.

도지코인의 사이클 정점 가격 8~10달러로 예상, 그러나 조심해야 할 이유는?

Bitcoin ETFs have shown an increase in premarket, even as&nbsp;Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell&nbsp;made it clear that the central bank has no plans to accumulate Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>).
What Happened: As per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>&nbsp;on Thursday, the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BITB#NYSE">BITB</a>) saw a rise of 1.08%, ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKB#BATS">ARKB</a>) increased by 1.41%, Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (BTC) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GBTC#NYSE">GBTC</a>) climbed 1.32%,&nbsp;Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund&nbsp;(BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FBTC#BATS">FBTC</a>) advanced 1.04%, and iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>) gained 1.26%.
Powell, speaking after the Fed&#8217;s latest policy meeting, emphasized that the central bank is not allowed to own Bitcoin. He noted that any legal considerations about Bitcoin stockpiling would fall under Congress&#8217;s jurisdiction. His comments came amid discussions about a potential U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve proposed by President-elect Donald Trump.

Despite the Fed&#8217;s position, Bitcoin&#8217;s value has been on the rise, driven by optimism over Trump&#8217;s pro-crypto policies. However, Powell&#8217;s statements did affect Bitcoin&#8217;s rally, which had been bolstered by expectations of a more lenient government stance.&nbsp;Bitcoin was trading at $102,085 after dipping below $100,000 on Wednesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro.</a>
Republican Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) has introduced legislation for a Bitcoin reserve, but such a plan would need congressional approval and might face opposition from the Fed, as highlighted by Barclays analysts.
Why It Matters: The backdrop to Powell&#8217;s comments includes a recent market upheaval following his hawkish outlook on interest rates. As reported, the U.S. stock market faced a significant selloff after Powell&#8217;s remarks, which CNBC's Jim Cramer described as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42567950/jim-cramer-warns-of-incredible-panic-as-jerome-powells-cautious-rate-cuts-send-us-stocks-into-freefall">causing "incredible panic" in the markets.</a> 
This reaction was triggered by Powell&#8217;s announcement of a 25-basis-point rate cut to 4.25%-4.5%, alongside signaling only two potential rate cuts in 2025, fewer than the four projected in September.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) co-founder Joe Lonsdale disclosed that the data analytics company nearly collapsed in its early years before CEO Alex Karp secured crucial contracts with federal agencies.
What Happened: Speaking on the Shawn Ryan Show podcast released Wednesday, Lonsdale revealed that about three years into Palantir&#8217;s development, key team members were ready to quit due to insufficient contracts.
&#8220;It came really close to dying,&#8221; Lonsdale said. &#8220;A few of our top guys were basically ready to quit. They were like, &#8216;Joe this is just not working out.'&#8221;
Lonsdale convinced the team to persist for six more months, during which Karp made significant inroads with federal agencies. &#8220;Alex Karp did a really great job at figuring out how to get both the FBI and CIA to move on something, and all of a sudden it was good,&#8221; he explained.
The company later faced resistance from military procurement officials, leading to an unusual legal battle. &#8220;We ended up suing the government. I never sue anyone, but Palantir had to… and we won,&#8221; Lonsdale said. He noted that after military units began using Palantir&#8217;s software, they acknowledged its effectiveness despite earlier skepticism.

Why It Matters: The revelations come as Palantir&#8217;s stock has surged approximately 330% year-to-date, with the company&#8217;s artificial intelligence platform gaining significant traction. Recent endorsements include billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller, whose family office acquired 769,965 shares in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42546044/alex-karp-jokes-about-cult-label-as-stanley-druckenmiller-praises-his-book-after-palantir-soars-nearly-350-in-2024">first quarter of 2024</a>.
Lonsdale emphasized Palantir&#8217;s evolution from a data organization platform to incorporating AI capabilities. &#8220;It turns out, it&#8217;s very powerful to then apply AI on top of it,&#8221; he said, noting that the company&#8217;s early focus on data organization positioned it well for AI integration.
Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42522531/tesla-will-be-the-biggest-winner-in-the-trump-era-says-dan-ives-predicts-nasdaq-at-25000-in-18-months-get-the-popcorn-out">remains bullish on Palantir</a>, predicting 2025 will be a breakthrough year for the company&#8217;s AI platform. The company&#8217;s market capitalization now exceeds $162 billion, surpassing traditional defense contractor Lockheed Martin Corp.

EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) said on Wednesday that the owners of its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/41929739/tesla-makes-1000-powerwalls-at-giga-nevada-in-a-day-as-energy-storage-segment-booms">Powerwall home battery</a> around the globe generated 4.5 TWh of solar energy this year.
What Happened: The energy generated together by the owners could power the company&#8217;s Model 3 EV sedan for 700,000 trips around the world, the company said in a post on social media platform X. Powerwall owners also saved over $800 million on their utility bills, the company said. 
Powerwall is a powerful home battery that stores solar energy for use when the grid goes down. The company has previously said that it has the capacity to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40145508/tesla-says-it-can-make-one-powerwall-3-every-25-seconds-ceo-elon-musk-terms-it-a-great-product" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">build a Powerwall 3- the latest iteration of the product- every 25 seconds</a>, or more than 700,000 units per year.
A powerwall system, Tesla says, can power an entire home including large appliances.

Why It Matters: In the three months through the end of September, Tesla&#8217;s energy generation and storage revenue <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41537560/teslas-energy-segment-boom-in-q3-sparks-leadership-changes-veteran-mike-snyder-promoted-as-vp" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">touched $2.38 billion</a>, marking a growth of 52% as compared to the corresponding period of last year, after deploying 6.9 GWh of energy storage products.
The energy business achieved a record gross margin of 30.5% and the powerwall product achieved record deployments.
Tesla manufactures two energy storage products &#8211; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40478134/tesla-breaks-powerwall-production-record-at-giga-nevada-as-it-aims-to-ramp-up-energy-storage-deploym">the Powerwall </a>and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41737630/tesla-makes-10-000th-megapack-at-california-as-energy-segment-booms" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">powerful battery called Megapack</a>.
Tesla currently operates a Megafactory in Lathrop, California, capable of making 10,000 Megapack units in a year. The company is also putting up a Megafactory in Shanghai which it expects to start shipping Megapacks in the first quarter of 2025.
For 2024, Tesla now expects to deploy more than twice the energy storage deployed last year, or over 29.4 GWh of energy storage.

Tesla Says Powerwall Owners Generated 4.5 TWh Of Solar Energy This Year Amid Energy Segment Revenue Boom

Chinese tech giants are making substantial gains, challenging the dominance of established players like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) in the global wrist-worn device market.&nbsp;
What Happened: According to an IDC report released on Wednesday, the global wrist-worn device market, including smartwatches and wristbands, saw shipments reach 139 million units in the first three quarters of 2024.
Despite a 1% decline due to market saturation in key regions like the U.S. and India, China emerged as a leader with 45.8 million units shipped, marking a 20.1% year-on-year increase.
Huawei Technologies led the global market with 23.6 million units shipped, capturing a 16.9% market share. The brand&#8217;s GT5 series and Watch D2 were particularly popular.
Apple followed with 22.5 million shipments, holding a 16.2% market share. The tech giant experienced a 12.8% decline from the last year due to intense competition.

Xiaomi Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XIACF#OTC">XIACF</a>) ranked third with 20.5 million shipments and a 14.7% market share.
Samsung and the BBK Group, the parent company of brands like Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus, and Realme, followed with 11.5 million and 7.8 million units, respectively.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/19035758/Screenshot-2024-12-19-at-2.27.50%E2%80%AFPM-1024x495.png" alt="" class="wp-image-699220" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Source: IDC</figcaption></figure>
Looking forward, IDC anticipates a 3.2% year-on-year growth in the Chinese market, with 62.5 million shipments expected in 2025, driven by diversified sales channels and improved health sensor accuracy.

Why It Matters: Apple's troubles with its Chinese counterparts are not limited to just wrist-worn devices. Earlier this year in July it was reported that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39954971/apple-drops-from-3rd-to-6th-in-china-amid-intensifying-competition-huawei-shipments-surge-41-in-">Apple&#8217;s position in the Chinese market</a> dropped from third to sixth place in the second quarter of 2024.
Previously it was also reported that China is making intense efforts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41017367/huawei-riding-high-on-trifold-success-launches-revolutionary-laptop-powered-by-homegrown-chips-softw">toward achieving technological self-reliance</a> as a direct reaction to U.S. limitations on semiconductor exports to the country.
The country is also making waves in the field of AI. Earlier this month, Clem Delangue, co-founder and CEO of Hugging Face, predicted that in 2025, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42319922/artificial-intelligence-ceo-backed-by-nvidia-alphabet-amazon-shares-2025-ai-predictions-including-robots-chemistry-and-more">China will take the lead</a> in the AI race, because of open-source AI development.

Perplexity AI, backed by Amazon.com Inc. founder Jeff Bezos, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41420230/jeff-bezos-backed-perplexity-aims-for-8b-valuation-in-new-funding-round-ai-fueled-google-challen">secured $500 million in funding</a> led by Institutional Venture Partners, tripling its valuation to $9 billion, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/d4fb70f9-b971-433b-884c-2f01d1d08968">reported</a> the Financial Times on Wednesday, citing sources. 
What Happened: The San Francisco-based startup has seen rapid growth in 2024, processing hundreds of millions of monthly queries from 15 million active users, mostly in the U.S. The company&#8217;s market share in AI search increased from 2.7% to 5.8% this year, according to FirstPageSage data.
Perplexity challenges Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Google and Microsoft Corp.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) artificial intelligence-powered search offerings, while also taking on OpenAI.
While OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT maintains market leadership with a 73.8% share, followed by Google&#8217;s Gemini at 13.5%, Perplexity&#8217;s growth trajectory has attracted high-profile investors. 
OpenAI&#8217;s website continues to lead the AI platform race, ranking 92nd globally and 139th in U.S. web traffic, according to recent Similarweb data. The company attracted 250.1 million total visits, showcasing its commanding market position.
Perplexity.ai, while trailing in overall rankings at 467th globally and 547th in the U.S., demonstrated strong user engagement. The platform recorded 58.69 million total visits, with users spending an average of six minutes per session and viewing nearly four pages per visit.
In contrast, Google&#8217;s Gemini platform struggled to gain traction, ranking 12,612th globally and 31,018th in the U.S. The service recorded just 989,992 total visits, with notably high bounce rates suggesting challenges in user retention.
Monthly visit data further highlights the disparity, with OpenAI recording 83.39 million visits compared to Perplexity.ai&#8217;s 19.56 million and Gemini&#8217;s 329,997 visits. While OpenAI leads in raw traffic numbers, 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/19035716/Screenshot-2024-12-19-at-2.21.33%E2%80%AFPM-1024x499.png" alt="" class="wp-image-699219" /></figure>
Perplexity AI did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.
Similarweb data also shows conversations about Perplexity versus ChatGPT surging over the course of the year, largely taking off in August.

Why It Matters: Previous backers of Perplexity include NVIDIA Corp., SoftBank&#8216;s Vision Fund 2, and notable AI experts like Meta Platforms Inc.&#8216;s chief AI scientist Yann LeCun.
The funding comes as competition intensifies in the AI search space. OpenAI recently integrated web searching into ChatGPT, while Anthropic&#8217;s Claude expanded its capabilities with a &#8220;computer use&#8221; feature.
Both Google and Microsoft have incorporated large language models into their search products to provide more conversational results.
Perplexity&#8217;s revenue model relies on subscriptions, with annualized revenues growing from $5 million in January to $35 million in August. The company is now exploring advertising partnerships with major brands, potentially challenging the traditional search <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41420230/jeff-bezos-backed-perplexity-aims-for-8b-valuation-in-new-funding-round-ai-fueled-google-challen">advertising system pioneered by Google</a>.

Mizuho Upgrades Stanley Black & Decker to Outperform, Maintains Price Target to $110

Chinese <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/41931338/teslas-chinese-battery-supplier-catl-open-minded-about-us-expansion-if-trump-welcomes-chinese-investments">electric vehicle battery manufacturer</a> Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd. or CATL is reportedly considering a second listing in Hong Kong.
What Happened: The listing could raise at least $5 billion, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-19/catl-is-said-to-consider-hk-listing-to-raise-at-least-5-billion">reported</a>, citing people familiar with the matter. The company is talking with potential advisers and listing might happen as early as the first half of 2025, the report said. 
CATL&#8217;s plans, however, could change, the report noted, given the company&#8217;s deliberations are ongoing. A second listing in Hong Kong will need the company to get approval from China&#8217;s securities regulator.
If CATL raises $5 billion or more, it would top Midea Group Co&#8217;s $4.6 billion share sale in September, Bloomberg noted, making it the city&#8217;s biggest since early 2021 when Kuaishou Technology had a $6.2 billion share sale.
CATL did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment on the prospective second listing.
Why It Matters: CATL is the world&#8217;s top EV battery maker supplying companies including Tesla. It currently trades on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Its shares have surged over 70% year-to-date and the company now has a market cap of about 1.2 trillion yuan. 
The biggest IPO to date in Hong Kong occurred in 2010. Insurance company AIA Group Ltd&#8217;s listing then raised more than $20 billion, Bloomberg noted.
CATL announced this week that it has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42550475/tesla-rival-catl-co-develops-10-ev-models-with-battery-swap-technology-report">co-developed 10 EV models</a> with automakers that use swappable batteries. It also revealed that in 2024 so far, it completed 60 million battery swaps, and Chinese EV maker Nio Inc. uses battery-swapping technology in 60% of its vehicles.

EV Battery Maker CATL Eyes 2nd Listing In Hong Kong To Raise $5 Billion Or More: Report

Jeremy Siegel, professor emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania&#8217;s Wharton School, described the stock market&#8217;s recent downturn as a &#8220;healthy&#8221; reaction to the Federal Reserve&#8217;s cautious approach to future interest rate cuts.
What Happened: The Federal Reserve&#8217;s decision to lower&nbsp;interest rates by a quarter&nbsp;percentage point, setting the target range to 4.25% to 4.5%, was accompanied by a revised forecast indicating fewer rate cuts in 2025 than previously expected. This announcement led to declines across all three major Wall Street indexes, as investors had anticipated more aggressive rate reductions, CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/12/19/wharton-jeremy-siegel-stock-sell-off-after-fed-rate-cut-is-healthy-.html">reported</a> on Thursday. 
"The market was overly optimistic&#8230;so I am not surprised at the sell-off," he said. 
He suggested that the Fed might reduce rates only once or twice next year, with the possibility of no cuts at all due to inflation concerns.
The Fed&#8217;s new projections expect the core personal consumption expenditures price index&nbsp;to remain elevated at 2.5%&nbsp;through 2025, above the 2% target. Siegel also mentioned potential tariffs from President-elect Donald Trump could impact inflation, though he believes&nbsp;the actual tariffs may not&nbsp;be as significant as feared.

Why It Matters: The Federal Reserve&#8217;s recent decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/12/42561549/fed-slashes-interest-rates-by-0-25-as-predicted-december-dot-plot-flags-only-2-potential-cuts-in-2025">cut interest rates by 0.25% </a>was widely anticipated, marking the third consecutive reduction in borrowing costs. This move brought the federal funds rate to its lowest level since January 2023, following a 50-basis-point cut in September and a 25-basis-point move in November. However, the decision was not unanimous, with Cleveland Fed President Beth M. Hammack voting to maintain the target range unchanged at 4.5%-4.75%. 
Experts have noted that while the rate cut was expected, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42564443/santa-came-early-with-rate-cut-but-federal-reserve-brings-coal-next-year-experts-weigh-in-on-rate-cut-feds-2025-projections">Fed&#8217;s projections for 2025 </a>brought a sobering outlook. The Fed&#8217;s cautious stance on future rate cuts, as indicated by the December dot plot, flags only two potential cuts in 2025. This has led to a reassessment of market expectations, with investors adjusting to the reality of a less aggressive monetary policy.
Meanwhile, the CNN Money Fear and Greed Index <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/12/42569953/dow-dips-over-1100-points-falling-for-10th-session-as-powell-adopts-hawkish-stance-greed-index-moves-to-fear-zone">fell into the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone </a>on Wednesday, signaling a decline in market sentiment. U.S. stocks closed lower, with the Dow Jones index dropping over 1,100 points for the 10th consecutive session.
Price Action: As per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) which tracks the S&amp;P 500 closely, has dropped by 3.35% in the past week while Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) dropped by 2.13%.

Earnings Scheduled For December 19, 2024

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed a sharp decline in the overall market sentiment, while the index moved to the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Wednesday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Wednesday, with the Dow Jones index falling for the 10th session in a row, dipping more than 1,100 points during the session.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell adopted a hawkish stance during his Wednesday press conference after the December Fed meeting. Although the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates by 0.25% to a range of 4.25%-4.5%, as widely anticipated, the updated economic projections suggest just two potential rate cuts in 2025 — down from four projected in September and fewer than the three anticipated by markets before the meeting.
On the economic data front, the U.S. recorded a current account deficit of $310.9 billion in the third quarter compared to the revised gap of $275.0 billion in the previous period, versus market estimates of a $284 billion gap. U.S. housing starts fell 1.8% to an annualized rate of 1.289 million units in November from 1.312 million in October.
General Mills, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GIS#NYSE">GIS</a>) shares fell around 3% on Wednesday following the release of second-quarter results. Shares of Worthington Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WOR#NYSE">WOR</a>) rose around 10% during Wednesday&#8217;s session as the company posted better-than-expected results for its second quarter.
All sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with consumer discretionary, real estate, and communication services stocks recording the biggest losses on Wednesday.
The Dow Jones closed lower by around 1,123 points to 42,326.87 on Wednesday. The S&amp;P 500 fell 2.95% to 5,872.16, while the Nasdaq Composite declined 3.56% at 19,392.69 during Wednesday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from Accenture Plc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACN#NYSE">ACN</a>), Nike Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>), and FedEx Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 33.9, the index moved to the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Wednesday, versus a prior reading of 50.7.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

도지코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>)은 이번 주에 암호화폐 시장의 전반적인 하락세 속에서 급격한 유턴을 보였지만, 낙관론을 꺾지는 못했다.
무슨 일 있었나: 개를 주제로 한 밈 코인인 도지코인은 이번 주에 7일 최고가인 0.48달러에서 19%까지 하락했다. 월요일 비트코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) 의 플래시 크래시로 인해 하락세가 가속화된 것이다.
널리 알려진 암호화폐 애널리스트인 트레이더 타디그레이드(Trader Tardigrade)는 도지코인이 매크로 차트에서 과매도 구간과 과매수 구간 사이를 오가고 있으며, 사이클의 정점은 아직 멀었다고 관찰했다.
"도지코인은 과매도 구간을 벗어나 현재 약 8~10달러의 선형으로 예상되는 과매수 구간으로 향하고 있다. 이 부분이 사이클의 정점이라고 생각한다.&#8221;
트레이더 타디그레이드는 최고점 이후에 도지코인 가격은 0.8~1.8달러 사이의 지지대까지 떨어질 수 있으며, 이 지점이 다음 사이클의 진입점이 될 수 있다고 예측했다.

왜 중요한가: 이러한 낙관적인 발언은 암호화폐의 일부 잘 알려진 기술적 지표의 신호와 상충된다.
트레이딩뷰 <a href="https://in.tradingview.com/symbols/DOGEUSD/technicals/">데이터</a>에 따르면, 이 글을 쓰는 시점에서 이동평균수렴확산(MACD) 지표는 "매도" 신호를 보냈다. MACD는 자산 가격의 두 지수이동평균을 비교하여 추세의 모멘텀을 보여준다.
마찬가지로, 모멘텀 지표는 현재 가격을 여러 기간의 이전 가격과 비교하여 약세 심리를 나타낸다.

화요일(10일)에 골드만삭스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>)CEO인 데이비드 솔로몬은 더 많은 규제 명확성이 제공된다면 골드만삭스가 주요 암호화폐의 현물 시장을 만드는 방법을 모색할 수 있다고 말했다.
무슨 일 있었나: 데이비드 솔로몬은 &#8216;로이터 NEXT 행사&#8217;에서 규제 관점에서 볼 때 비트코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>)과 이더리움(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>)의 현물 거래에 참여하는 골드만삭스의 능력이 "매우 제한적"이라고 했다.
"규제 당국에 물어봐야 한다. 왜냐하면 현재 규제 대상 은행 기관으로서 우리는 비트코인과 같은 암호화폐를 주체로 소유할 수 없기 때문이다.&#8221;
솔로몬은 도널드 트럼프 행정부 출범 이후 디지털 자산에 대한 규제 체계가 발전할 것이라는 광범위한 정서를 인정하면서도, 그 발전 방향이 아직 "불분명"하다고 덧붙였다. 그러나 규제 체계가 바뀌면 비트코인과 이더리움 시장 진입을 "평가"할 것이라고 말했다.
"규제 관점에서 볼 때 우리가 암호화폐 자산과 상호 작용할 수만 있다면, 우리는 꽤 큰 인프라를 가지고 있다."

왜 중요한가: 골드만삭스는 올해부터 비트코인과 이더리움과 연계된 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42029764/global-banks-jp-morgan-goldman-sachs-add-to-bitcoin-ethere-etf-positions-in-q3-morgan-stanley-increases-microstrategy-stake-to-16b" target="_blank" rel="noopener">현물 교환 거래 펀드</a>에 투자하기 시작했으며, 최근 13F 서류를 통해 상당한 포지션이 공개되었다.
골드만삭스는 여러 비트코인 ETF에 7억 1천만 달러를 투자했으며, iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>)에 1,270만 주를 4억 6,100만 달러에 매입했다고 밝혔다.
또한 Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETH#NYSE">ETH</a>)와 Fidelity Ethereum Fund(BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FETH#BATS">FETH</a>)에 나누어 2,516만 달러를 이더리움 ETF에 보유하고 있다.
그리고 골드만삭스는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42047066/goldman-sachs-to-spin-out-digital-assets-platform-amid-blockchain-push" target="_blank" rel="noopener">블록체인 사업에 큰 투자를 하고</a> 있으며, 향후 12~18개월 내에 디지털 자산 플랫폼을 독립적인 회사로 분사할 계획다.

최근 증권거래위원회(SEC)에 제출된 13F 공시에 따르면, 글로벌 투자은행들이 암호화폐 관련 상장지수펀드(ETF)와 비트코인 대리 종목인 마이크로스트레티지에 대해 상당한 지분을 보유하고 있다는 사실이 밝혀졌다.
<h3>JP모건 체이스</h3>
시가총액 기준 세계 최대 은행인 JP모건 체이스는 9월 30일 마감 분기에 비트코인과 이더리움 ETF에 상당한 투자를 했다.
JP모건은 iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>) 387주를 13,982달러에 매입했는데, 이는 지난 분기에 모두 매도한 후 다시 매입한 것이다. 또한 Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund(BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FBTC#BATS">FBTC</a>)에도 자금을 재할당해 213주를 11,877달러에 매입했다.
전반적으로 JP모건의 비트코인 ETF 노출액은 거의 65,000달러에 달했다.
그리고 JP모건은 처음으로 이더리움 ETF에 진입하면서 Grayscale Ethereum Trust ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETHE#NYSE">ETHE</a>)와 그 미니 버전인 Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETH#NYSE">ETH</a>)에 상당한 투자를 했다. 두 펀드에 대한 총 투자액은 30,700달러였다.
암호화폐 노출을 늘리려는 시도 속에서 JP모건은 마이크로스트레티지 포트폴리오를 12.5% 증가시켜 660,693주로 늘렸고, 이는 1억 1,139만 달러에 달한다.
<h3>골드만삭스</h3>
또 다른 월가 거대 은행인 골드만삭스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>)는 지난주 13F 서류를 제출했다.
골드만삭스는 여러 비트코인 ETF에 7억 1천만 달러를 투자했으며 IBIT 펀드 1,270만 주를 보유하고 있고 이는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40410418/goldman-sachs-makes-blockbuster-debut-adds-over-400m-in-bitcoin-etf-position-in-q2-as-morg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">4억 6,100만 달러에 해당</a>한다고 공개했다.
이러한 투자로 골드만삭스는 IBIT 펀드의 제2대 주주가 되었으며, 현재 세계 최대 비트코인 투자펀드인 IBIT의 자산은 428억 9,000만 달러에 달한다.
한편, 골드만삭스는 2,516만 달러 규모의 이더리움 ETF를 보유하고 있으며, 이는 Grayscale의 Mini Trust(ETH)와 Fidelity의 이더리움 펀드(BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FETH#BATS">FETH</a>)에 분산되어 있다.
흥미롭게도, 골드만삭스는 3분기에 약 534,894주의 마이크로스트레티지 주식을 매각하여 보유 비중을 1억 4,044만 달러로 줄였다.
<h3>모건 스탠리</h3>
모건스탠리(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>)는 지난 분기에 비트코인 ETF 포트폴리오 규모를 2억 3,300만 달러에서 1억 8,339만 달러로 줄였다.
이러한 자금 유출은 주식 449,802주의 IBIT 펀드 주식을 매도한 데 따른 것이었다.
또한 모건스탠리는 이더리움 ETF에 투자했는데 주로 iShares Ethereum Trust ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETHA#NASDAQ">ETHA</a>)를 통한 투자였다.
한편, 마이크로스트레티지 보유량은 22.6% 증가한 9,595,008주로 16억 1,100만 달러에 달했다.
