Bitcoin: Have you missed the boat or is this just the beginning? with Markus Thielen (10X Research)
In today’s episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Markus Thielen. We discuss everything from the history of Bitcoin, its meteoric rise to 100k and the future for Bitcoin and Ethereum, have you missed the boat or is it just the beginning?
Markus Thielen is the founder of 10x Research, a leading digital asset research firm serving traders and institutions. Previously, Markus served as Head of Research at Matrixport, a $ billion digital investment firm, Chief Investment Officer at IDEG and founded Jomon Investment Management. His extensive experience includes portfolio management roles at Millennium Capital Partners and JP Morgan’s Investment Group. Markus began his career at Morgan Stanley, where he led the Quantitative & Derivatives Strategies Group in Asia. Markus holds a degree from ESCP Business School in Paris and a Certificate in Sustainable Finance from the University of Cambridge. Renowned for his expertise in digital assets and investment strategy, he is the author of Crypto Titans: How Trillions Were Made and Billions Lost in the Cryptocurrency Markets, further cements his status as a thought leader in the field.
Bitcoin stands at the crossroads of two distinct narratives: a compelling investment case driving institutional adoption and a speculative fervor fueling retail mania. Under a pro-growth Trump administration, both dynamics could flourish, creating sharply divergent opportunities for long-term investors and short-term traders alike. Unlike past Bitcoin cycles that culminated in definitive peaks, 2025 may not follow the traditional script. Instead, we could witness the broadening of crypto as a mainstream asset class, with Bitcoin potentially surpassing gold in prominence.
