Bernstein digital analyst Gautam Chhugani says crypto should benefit from stronger institutional inflows and the rapid integration of blockchain infrastructure into mainstream finance. Bitcoin is getting closer to breaking through resistance at $80,000 U.S. as the "crypto winter" that began last fall shows signs of thawing. Additionally, the analyst says that Strategy's (NASDAQ: $MSTR ) treasury model and spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have transformed Bitcoin's ownership structure. Institutional adoption of crypto is accelerating, with Morgan Stanley (NYSE: $MS ) launching a new spot Bitcoin ETF earlier in April. Charles Schwab (NYSE: $SCHW ) has also begun rolling out spot crypto trading for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: $BTC ) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: $ETH ) through a new crypto platform. Overall, spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded net inflows of $2.7 billion U.S. over the past three weeks and now hold roughly 6.3% of the total Bitcoin supply, notes Bernstein. Beyond Bitcoin, Chhugani highlights growing stablecoin adoption and real-world asset tokenization as structural tailwinds for the crypto market. Dollar-backed stablecoin supply currently stands at $276 billion U.S., an all-time high. Finally, Chhugani addresses the much-debated quantum computing threats to Bitcoin and other crypto, saying it is "real but manageable." "We believe the best days of crypto are ahead," writes the analyst in a note to clients. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: $BTC ) is currently trading at $76,100 U.S.
