Ben Armstrong recently appeared, delivering a comprehensive and dynamic look into the crypto markets. The CoinSpeech team was keen to collect and present the most significant highlights from this session. Ben Armstrong’s new video is available below for those who missed it.
The Return of Bull Market Energy
In his latest appearance, Ben Armstrong, also known as BitBoy, exuded a confident and determined attitude. He expressed his persistent optimism despite recent setbacks. “See, I’m BitBoy. Don’t doubt me. I’m steadfast, can’t finish me. I’m back to back with bull market energy,” Armstrong declared, reflecting his bullish outlook on crypto markets.
Insights on Altcoins
Armstrong offered deep insights into the current altcoin market, drawing parallels with past trends. According to him, while altcoins are currently in a “reaccumulation stage,” significant upward movement is expected soon. He referenced historical data, stating, “The alt market cap remains 50% below its all-time high from 2020-2021.” This statistic indicates a substantial growth opportunity.
Julian Assange and the Crypto Market
Interestingly, Armstrong discussed a very different topic mid-session, detailing the situation with Julian Assange. “Julian Assange has been released from a British prison… likely to be credited for the five years he’s already served.” He hinted that Assange’s release and the Biden Administration’s involvement could have broader implications. Armstrong elaborated, “The timing of all of this seemed a little strange… there was much more to it than just a plea deal.”
MAA Regulations and European Crypto
Armstrong also touched on the upcoming implementation of the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MAA) regulations in the European Union. Effective June 30, these new rules will focus primarily on stablecoins and aim to support innovative technologies like blockchain. Armstrong summarized the impact, “This is bullish… it’s a regulatory framework for all of Europe.”
Stability in Ripple’s XRP
Another major focus was Ripple’s XRP, which Armstrong described as currently “the most stable asset on the crypto market.” He mentioned its consistent performance at around $0.48, “Ripple has a substantial fine to pay, but they’ve successfully avoided issues at 48 cents.”
Bitcoin and Altcoin Predictions
Armstrong gave his take on Bitcoin’s short-term future, “I don’t believe it will go down much lower.” He remains optimistic, projecting potential growth, particularly if an Ethereum ETF gets approved soon. “This would be huge for the altcoin market,” he said, underscoring the potential ripple effects on Ethereum and other altcoins.
New and Exciting Developments
Lastly, Armstrong hinted at upcoming improvements in the crypto community, aligning himself more closely with the title of “BitBoy” and revealing plans for rebuilding and recalibrating, “Ethereum is broken… it’s time to move on to our own chain.” This new development signals a potential pivot towards in-house innovation and independence.
The dynamic nature of Armstrong’s latest session underscores not only the resilience of the crypto market but also the richness of opportunities and the complexity of ongoing narratives. Stay tuned as these stories continue to unfold.
