Fundstrat’s head of digital assets research walks us through his $100,000 and $10,500 year-end price targets for bitcoin and ether – and shares the 8 tokens he’s bullish on

• David Grider is the head of digital assets research at Fundstrat Global Advisors.
• He explains his year-end price targets of $100k and $10.5k for bitcoin and ether respectively.
• Grider also shares how to research digital assets and 8 additional tokens that he is bullish on.

Back in 2015, David Grider was working at an investment bank when he first heard billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya talking about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.

“I respected him so I gave it a look and got in there,” Grider, who is now the head of digital assets research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, said in an interview.

Before long, he fell into the proverbial crypto rabbit hole and started researching the various assets in the nascent industry. In 2016, Grider acquired bitcoin (BTC) at around $600 and ether (ETH) at about $12. The next year, he left the traditional finance industry and started a blockchain-based hedge fund Aenigma Capital.
