John Deaton Calls for Crypto Accumulation Amid Evolving Regulations

The cryptocurrency market remains entrenched in a bearish trend, despite brief periods of upward momentum. Mid and small-cap altcoins have faced sharp losses recently, widening the performance disparity among market segments.

Deaton’s Call to Financial Advisors

Pro-XRP lawyer John Deaton urges financial advisors to encourage clients to accumulate crypto assets, citing evolving regulations and institutional interest as key indicators for a market rebound.

He believes that strategic accumulation during the current downturn could yield significant gains. Deaton stated on X,
> “If you’re a Financial Advisor, how are you not negligent, or even reckless, to not advise your clients to have, at least, a small percentage of your investments in Bitcoin and/or other digital assets?”

A Pivotal Shift

Deaton highlighted a significant shift in the cryptocurrency landscape attributed to President Donald Trump’s influence on policy direction. The industry, once focused on securing clear regulations, is now showing greater optimism with developments such as the announcement of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and the appointment of a Crypto Czar.

He noted,
> “We didn’t expect a President to appoint a Crypto Czar, form a Crypto Council or Digital Assets Working Group, or establish an SBR or SCR.”

Research from Nickel Digital reveals over 80% of institutional investors see David Sacks’ role as pivotal.

Reasons Behind Deaton’s Advice

Deaton outlined three key factors supporting crypto investment amid the U.S. government’s shifting stance:
– Sentiment around a Bitcoin reserve remains optimistic despite a dip from 45% to 30% in Polymarket data.
– The U.S. government’s budget-neutral Bitcoin acquisition strategy.
– Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s substantial exposure could reach billions.

Aligning with the ‘buy the dip’ philosophy, market downturns could provide prime opportunities for long-term investors anticipating a rebound. However, this strategy includes inherent risks as prices may continue to decline, leading to unexpected losses.
