Crypto Bulls Claim Qatar Is Putting $500B On Bitcoin, More Than The Sovereign Fund’s Assets

Rumors are circulating about Qatar’s Sovereign Wealth Fund (QSWF) eyeing a colossal $500 billion investment in Bitcoin (BTC). While unconfirmed, this speculative move has ignited excitement and anticipation across financial circles worldwide, signaling a potential monumental shift in the cryptocurrency landscape.

The speculation gained traction following a tweet by Bitcoin advocate Max Keiser, who suggested that QSWF, responsible for managing Qatar’s vast oil and gas-generated wealth, is considering a significant investment in Bitcoin.

The rumored investment amount, if realized, would outshine Michael Saylor-founded MicroStrategy’s disclosed Bitcoin position by a staggering 671 times. MicroStrategy currently holds 174,530 BTC, making it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin.

The news coincided with Bitcoin’s surge past the $42,000 mark on Monday, reaching levels unseen since April 2022. This surge is attributed to the growing optimism around the potential approval of a Bitcoin spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the U.S. The cryptocurrency is currently trading around $41,600, marking a 5% increase in the last 24 hours and an impressive 10% surge over the past four days.

Bitcoin advocate Luke Broyles commented on the rumors, emphasizing the critical factor of Bitcoin supply and demand. Broyles highlighted the $76 billion worth of BTC remaining on crypto exchanges and underscored the fundamental principle of Bitcoin’s immovable supply. He suggested that any substantial investment would inevitably drive prices higher.

However, not everyone is convinced of the rumors’ validity. Broyles himself expressed skepticism, stating that he would be “shocked if remotely true.” Other crypto pundits echoed this sentiment, noting that QSWF’s current holdings of $475 billion make it unlikely to allocate 100% into BTC.

The cryptocurrency community is closely watching developments, considering the potential impact of Qatar’s Sovereign Wealth Fund entering the Bitcoin market. Whether the rumored $500 billion investment materializes or remains speculative, the buzz surrounding this news underscores the growing influence of institutional players in the crypto space.
