This is a powerful signal that the present Bitcoin Bull market is still in its early stages.

Drunkenmiller, widely considered to be one of the world's greatest investors, joins other Institutional Bitcoin Bulls like Paul Tudor Jones, Jack Dorsey, Michael Saylor, and Steve Wozniak in expressing their belief in Bitcoin as a Store of Value & Inflationary Hedge. In his recent interview with CNBC Drunkenmiller disclosed his long-Bitcoin (and long-Gold) positions, explaining that Bitcoin has become an attractive store of value, especially to Millennial & Silicon Valley investors. Despite holding a much larger position in Gold than in Bitcoin, Drunkenmiller also stated that, "... if the Gold bet works, the Bitcoin bet will probably work much better because it has a lot more beta to it."

Read MoreBased on current block times we expect to witness one of the largest Difficulty Reductions in Bitcoin History this Monday (11/2/2020), with estimates ranging from -13.65% to -14.18%. In the past, extreme Difficulty reductions have signaled favorable probabilities for long term capital deployment.

Read MoreWe have witnessed a massive expansion of Institutional Bitcoin Mining activity in 2020 since the Halving occurred in May. This has led to an unprecedented demand for next-gen mining rigs and created lead times of 5+ months for models like the Bitmain Antminer S19 Pro. Bitcoin Network Hashrate and Difficulty continue to increase steadily as more of these new models come online each day. Although this activity is making the Bitcoin Mining landscape more competitive, it is also providing a very strong, positive signal for the Market. Growing Institutional investment in Bitcoin Mining indicates growing conviction in the future of Bitcoin.

By marrying the proper strategy and time horizon, Bitcoin Mining offers opportunities to significantly outperform simple buy and hold investment strategies. Bitcoin’s extreme volatility is best managed with a Dollar Cost Average Strategy, which mining best achieves…Mining is an excellent complement to holding Bitcoin. Market participants should have exposure to both to best position themselves over the long-term to capture the opportunity in Bitcoin: a disruptive technology and commodity in its infancy.

Read MoreMany haven't noticed yet, but 30%+ of the mining network has shut off since the Halving. New Bitcoin is being allocated to more efficient miners who can hold and accumulate…
Difficulty just adjusted (-6%) and if the Bitcoin Network Hash Rate remains at present levels and block times remain constant, then Difficulty is estimated to decrease by another 16%-21% between now and the next adjustment. This reflects the immediate impact of the Halving - a net difficulty reduction of 22%-28%. Miners are going to receive margin relief
