JPMorgan's shocking news agrees on BTC
and ETH as collateral
The most important news today is that JPMorgan Chase will issue loans to its institutional clients backed by Bitcoin and Ethereum. The controversy has officially ended; this is the strongest signal of the integration of cryptocurrencies into the credit financial system.
This means that traditional finance has begun to recognize cryptocurrencies as qualified collateral.
The transition from describing BTC as a fraud to accepting it as a strong liquidity tool is like a formal surrender from the bank.
The decision encourages long-term holding as it provides institutions with immediate liquidity without the need for forced selling. The integration deepens, and it is no longer just trading, but using BTC as a fundamental financial infrastructure.
Question: Do you expect this collateral step to trigger a wave of institutional demand that drives BTC and ETH to a new historical peak before the end of the year, or is it just financial engineering that means nothing for the price? Let us know your personal analysis for the future.
