The Most Profitable Single Trade of the 21st Century

Free markets and the freedom of expression often make strange bedfellows.
Take Bitcoin, for example.
So many famous people have falsely declared Bitcoin’s “demise” in recent years that there’s one clever website dedicated to “Bitcoin Obituaries.”
And so far, they declare tongue in cheek, Bitcoin has “died” 341 times.
Warren Buffett said Bitcoin was “rat poisoning squared.”
The Times of London opined that “cryptocurrencies are a fad best avoided.”
Jim Rogers, the widely respected commodity superstar, predicted “the value of Bitcoin will drop to zero.”
But Bitcoin proved all of them wrong every single time.
Care to guess how much Bitcoin has risen in value since the first Bitcoin “obituary”?
An estimated 180,000 times! That’s right. If you had invested $1,000 in Bitcoin the first time it traded actively — and the first time Wall Street told you not to — you’d have close to $180 million today.
Can you make this kind of money again? Probably not (at least not with Bitcoin.)
But still, the profit potential is off the charts, and I’ll give you our estimates in just a moment.
Bitcoin Naysayers Have Been Especially Wrong about Bitcoin in 2020. And Wait Till You See 2021!
Bitcoin began the year at $7,200.
Then, on Dec. 1, it rose to a peak of nearly $20,000.
So, in just 11 months, it surged 2.7 times over.
Now, we don’t like to buy anything when it’s hitting a peak, and nor should you.
We prefer to wait for any investor exuberance to recede and for prices to come down somewhat.
That’s what’s happening now, opening up what we see as an ideal buy window, but only for a very short time.
The thing is, this year has not only been a strong year for Bitcoin’s price, but also in terms of fundamental shifts that promise a much stronger 2021 ...
Millions of investors have set up new crypto accounts.
Billions of dollars have poured into the market.
And scores of Wall Street veterans have finally woken up to three truths we’ve been preaching for years:
Truth No. 1. Our top-rated cryptocurrencies are here to stay.
Truth No. 2. They are helping to transform global financial markets for the better.
Truth No. 3. They represent the single greatest profit opportunity of the 21st century.
This is why major hedge funds and institutions like BlackRock, Alliance Bernstein, JPMorgan and dozens of others have switched sides from the diminishing group of naysayers to the growing ranks of newborn Bitcoin advocates.
And, it’s why this mainstream adoption, both from Wall Street and Main Street investors, is now unstoppable, unleashing a new phase of this Bitcoin superboom in 2021.
What’s especially notable is this: Among the 121 cryptocurrencies we cover, there’s one other crypto that now merits an equally high Weiss Rating — Ethereum.
(See the full list, just updated here.)
Moreover, in terms of its technology, Ethereum merits an even higher score than Bitcoin.
I won’t bore you with all the myriad of factors and mathematical calculations that go into our Weiss Crypto Ratings.
Suffice it to say that what makes Ethereum truly stand heads and shoulders above Bitcoin is its ability to DO far more.
For now, at least, Bitcoin has settled into a more limited — but still important — role:
Bitcoin is used mostly as a store of value, like a digital gold.
That’s right. Instead of using Bitcoin as a kind of currency to buy or sell goods and services, most people simply buy it and stash it away for safe keeping.
Ethereum, in contrast, has unlimited applications. It’s like a single, integrated world computer that can do anything a supercomputer could do — run businesses, run financial markets, even governments — but with two key differences:
Unlike the world’s most powerful supercomputers, it can be accessed by anyone in the world at any time.
And unlike a supercomputer, it is not controlled by any single person, corporation or government. It is totally decentralized network of computers, governed almost entirely by an ultra-secure computer code that treats everyone fairly and equitably.
This helps explain why ...
The volume of Ethereum’s transactions have now surpassed Bitcoin’s.
It helps explain why ...
Ethereum has typically gone up three times more than Bitcoin in rising markets ... and has the potential to do the same in 2021.
And it’s a key reason why Ethereum now merits an “A-”, the highest grade we’ve given to any cryptocurrency.
Why not an “A+”? Because no crypto is perfect, and Ethereum is no exception.
Right now, for example, Ethereum is the victim of its own success.
So many companies and people want to use it for so many things, it cannot handle the massive volume of transactions without some delays and without charging relatively large fees.
This is why its community of developers are busting butt to upgrade to what’s dubbed “Ethereum 2.0,” which will be far faster and more efficient.
For investors, that’s a godsend. Because each time they’re about to launch a new phase in the upgrade process, it will be like big pharma announcing a new advance in a COVID-19 vaccine.
Investors will rush to buy.
Our Forecast for 2021 and Beyond
In the bull market cycle now under way, Bitcoin could go up 10-fold in price. That gives investors the potential of about 1,000%.
Ethereum could rise three time more, or 30-fold, a gain of about 3,000%.
Other, lesser-known cryptos could rise 10 times more than Bitcoin, or a gain of 10,000%.
Even if your unfamiliar with cryptocurrencies, and even if you’re in the same camp as Warren Buffett or Jim Rogers, this is NOT exactly an opportunity that you should shun.
Besides, those two gentlemen were talking about Bitcoin. To my knowledge, they have never spoken publicly about Ethereum.
Nor do they speak about lesser known cryptos that have even larger profit potential.
Good luck and God bless!
