# Korbit Research Recommends Long-Term Bitcoin Strategy
Korbit Research Center, led by Director Seokmoon Jeong, has advised that for general investors, a long-term investment strategy akin to Michael Saylor’s approach is more effective than short-term trading for small gains.
In a recent newsletter titled “Three Distinctions of the Upcoming Bitcoin Halving Cycle,” the research center highlighted that while Bitcoin demand continues to rise and supply diminishes, price increases are unlikely to follow a straightforward trajectory. The report pointed out that never before has Bitcoin traded close to its all-time high just ahead of a halving event. Historically, Bitcoin shows little movement around the halving but enters a significant uptrend roughly six months post-halving.
# Bitcoin ETFs as a Key Demand Source
The center emphasized the critical role of the ten Bitcoin spot ETFs listed on U.S. stock exchanges. These ETFs provide a clear and substantial source of demand that market participants can easily monitor even before the halving begins. The institution noted that spot ETFs have secured a permanent and regulatory-approved pathway for institutional money flow into Bitcoin. This development is expected to have a long-term impact over several years, marking the first time Bitcoin’s market faces a halving event with such confirmed demand sources.
# Long-Term Perspective Over Trading Gains
Korbit Research Center also addressed the potential downward price pressure following the launch of Bitcoin spot ETFs, citing instances where the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) experienced similar effects. Given the diverse factors influencing Bitcoin prices, the center reiterated that a long-term perspective modeled after Michael Saylor’s “HODLing” strategy is more advisable for average investors compared to attempting to capture small gains through trading.
According to Korbit Research, Michael Saylor’s expression of Bitcoin’s price as $0.06 million showcases his long-term vision. Saylor frequently communicates, including via tweets, his belief that Bitcoin will eventually reach a price of $1 million.
