Altcoins are catching up



Bitcoin ( BTC ) has now developed into the status of a popular hedge against inflation, but as new data show, the crypto market leader from Ethereum ( ETH ) and other Altcoins is getting more and more competition for the favor of investors.


An important indicator for this is the key figure Assets Under Management (AUM), which shows the total assets invested in a financial product. Bitcoin mutual fund AUMs are now down 9.5% in November to $ 48.7 billion, the biggest drop since July. Meanwhile, the AUM in altcoin mutual funds (e.g. for ETH) rose 5.4% to $ 16.6 billion


As can be seen in the graphic above, however, the total value of all AUM in crypto investment products also fell by 5.5% to $ 70 billion. Hardly surprising, because since Bitcoin recently hit a new record high of over 65,000 US dollars, the entire market has been in a slight sag.



Accordingly, the 9.5% return of the AUM for Bitcoin is noticeable, because these make up a market share of 70.6%. The AUM for Ethereum financial products has meanwhile increased by 5.4% to 16.6 billion US dollars, while the AUMs for all other cryptocurrencies come together to 2.6 billion US dollars.


Out of the total AUM offerings, Grayscale products amount to 76.8% of the AUM market. The Grayscale-dominated trust products fell by 6.8% to $54.5 billion. Other prominent players include XBT Provider ($5.0bn, 7.2% of total) and 21Shares ($2.5bn, 3.6% of total), evidenced by the graph below:


Of all crypto investment products, the Grayscale investment funds make up the largest piece of the pie with a market share of 76.8%. However, the market leader also had to accept a loss of 6.8% to an AUM value of 54.5 billion US dollars. The other major crypto investment providers are XBT Providers ($ 5 billion, 7.2% market share) and 21Shares ($ 2.5 billion, 3.6% market share), as can be seen in the graph below.


Monthly cash flow into Bitcoin investment products averages $ 94.4 million in November. The rest of the crypto market collectively hits a weekly average of $ 67.8 million, of which Ethereum investment products account for $ 24.4 million. Cardano and Tron come in at $ 10.7 million and $ 10.5 million, respectively.


After all, with the large investment bank Morgan Stanley, an important player has increased its investments in the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust in the last few weeks and months.


As Cointelegraph had reported , official records of the US Securities and Exchange Commission show that Morgan Stanley increased its own investments in the GBTC by a total of 63%.



Morgan Stanley's crypto portfolio has now risen to more than 300 million US dollars, most of which is invested in Bitcoin.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
