Own Bitcoin, Not MicroStrategy: Jim Cramer Gives Bold Investment Tip
The cryptocurrency community has been looking deeply into the Bitcoin (BTC) market as the asset has been exhibiting volatility. During the final week of January, the king coin was seen slipping below the $100,000 mark.

Is BTC a Victim of the ‘Inverse Cramer’ Effect Yet?
The development of a brief Inverse Cramer ETF in 2022 was prompted by a hilarious internet idea called “Inverse Cramer.” As a signal often linked to inverse bets, Jim Cramer’s selections frequently manage to move in the opposite direction over the long run. This caused the community to wonder if Bitcoin would record a downfall. On the contrary, the king coin was seen rising.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $102,750.77 following a nearly 4% rise over the past 24 hours. It should be noted that BTC dropped to a low of $97,795.94 earlier today. But the asset has clearly recovered and is set to move upwards.
