Nearly three out of four professional investors still believe that Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) is a bubble.
According to a CNBC report, the latest Bank of America Fund Manager Survey revealed that 74% of institutional investors believe that Bitcoin is abubble, while only 16% was of the opposite idea.
Fund managers also rated Bitcoin as a really crowded trade, second only to technology stocks. Only about 10% of the investors believe that Bitcoin will outperform this year.
Bank of America Corp (NYSE: BAC) asked 200 fund managers with $533 billion worth of assets under management.
Last month the bank published a research titled “Bitcoin’s Dirty Little Secrets,” where it called Bitcoin’s volatility “impractical” as a store of value or a payments mechanism. It stated that there’s “no good reason to own Bitcoin unless you see prices going up.”
Earlier today, the leading cryptocurrency also reached a new all-time high price of over $63,000 for the first time ever, and it was traded at $63,194 at press time.
