Zurich – 28 January 2020 – Amun, the first issuer to deliver fully collateralized, passive investment products with cryptocurrencies as underlying assets, has publicized its quarterly insights into the digital asset industry. This exhaustive review presented by the Amun research team unveils their thesis for two of the biggest phenomena of Q4 2019 — the growth of crypto exchanges, most noticeably Binance, and the maturation of the Proof-of-Stake crypto ecosystem in their theses for Binance Coin (BNB) and Tezos (XTZ).

“The most noticeable lesson from the last quarter of 2019 is that going forward the crypto asset market’s primary price driver will be global macroeconomic events such as changes in China’s economic strategy or geopolitical tensions, rather than microeconomic or industry-specific events" comments Amun’s research lead, Lanre Ige. "This point is important to note for investors over the coming years as it will deeply affect one’s investment strategy for crypto assets."

Among the report’s key findings include:

Q4 2019 was dominated by news of various nation-states’ growing interest in the industry — particularly China’s — and also the growth in the availability of crypto asset derivatives markets in both regulated and unregulated frameworks
2020 is likely to become an increasingly exciting year for Proof-of-Stake assets given the growing interest in assets like Cosmos and Tezos, as well as the looming launch of Ethereum 2.0 which will be the event to solidify Proof-of-Stake as a viable alternative to Bitcoin’s energy-intensive Proof-of-Work
Q4 2019 saw a range of acquisitions and fund-raising which point to a possible consolidation in many companies which currently offer ways for users to trade and exchange crypto assets. Two exchanges, Binance and Coinbase, are best placed to benefit from this consolidation and we expect them to heat up acquisition activity over the next year

A detailed investment thesis for Tezos (XTZ) as part of the launch of the Amun Tezos ETP (AXTZ) where Amun’s research argues that Tezos presents a viable alternative to the leading smart contract platform and its successful use of on-chain governance thus far will build confidence in crypto asset
