Popular cryptocurrency analyst and trader Michaël van de Poppe has liquidated his Bitcoin holdings. Van de Poppe, a prominent figure at the Amsterdam Stock Exchange known for his sharp market insights, announced this strategic move to his 718,100 followers on social media platform X on May 16.

Despite Bitcoin’s strong performance and institutional support, Van de Poppe clarified that his decision to liquidate was not due to losing confidence in Bitcoin’s future. Instead, he aims to strategically reallocate his investments into altcoins, where he anticipates greater potential returns later in the year. As such, this move is part of a broader strategy to capitalize on market dynamics and emerging opportunities for Van De Poppe.

Institutional Influx and Evolving Bitcoin Dynamics​

Van de Poppe highlighted the increasing involvement of major institutional investors in the Bitcoin market, citing the recent approval of the Spot Bitcoin ETF as a significant milestone.

Institutions such as pension funds, insurance companies, and hedge funds are now heavily investing in Bitcoin, further legitimizing its role as a mature financial asset. Additionally, the potential introduction of spot Bitcoin trading by CME Group has reinforced Bitcoin’s standing in the financial ecosystem.

However, Van de Poppe pointed out that Bitcoin’s traditional four-year cycle, heavily influenced by halving events, is becoming less predictable. He explained, “That automatically means that the simplicity of the four-year cycle is going to diminish over time and that the halving will have a reduction in impact over the cycles, as institutions care more about risk appetite in their portfolio combined with macroeconomic events taking place.”

Van De Poppe Turns to Altcoins, Eyes Big Gains​

Van de Poppe is confident that altcoins like Ether, XRP, Solana, Cardano, and Shiba Inu have the potential to yield higher returns than Bitcoin in the present market environment. Traditionally, there’s a market shift from Bitcoin to altcoins around the halving cycle. However, given Bitcoin’s persistent strength during this cycle, he expects an upcoming transition that could greatly benefit altcoins.

He also discussed the possible impacts of a spot Ethereum ETF getting the green light despite the existing regulatory challenges. Van de Poppe suggests that the market might be undervaluing the chances and timeline of this approval, which could trigger a significant market shift if it comes to fruition.

High Risks for Potential High Rewards​

Acknowledging the high risks associated with his strategy, Van de Poppe expressed confidence in achieving substantial returns, ranging from 300-900% in Bitcoin value within the next 6-12 months. Additionally, he projected overall potential returns of 900-4500% over the next 12-24 months, provided Bitcoin stabilizes.

Additionally, Van de Poppe argued that altcoins have faced undue downward pressure recently, making their potential upside significant and undeniable. He emphasized that Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) and Real-World Assets (RWA) are poised for substantial growth.
