Dear Valued Investors,
Happy new year and all the best for 2024!
As we step into the promising year of 2024, we are excited to share with you our December commentary, encapsulating the latest strides and insights in the dynamic realm of digital assets.
December concluded a remarkable year for crypto assets, with the MidSquare Digital Frontiers Fund achieving an impressive 9.06% return in USD for the month. Our strategic focus on liquidity pool rewards and capital preservation has been foundational in navigating the market's inherent volatility.
December spotlighted the increasingly vital role of stablecoins in the digital asset ecosystem. Unlike their more volatile counterparts, stablecoins offer a beacon of stability, crucial for navigating the digital asset landscape. This month, we delve into the significance of stablecoins like USDC, backed by solid assets and regulatory compliance, ensuring a steadfast value akin to traditional stable assets.
A ground breaking development in December was the introduction of S&P Global Stablecoin Stability Assessment ratings. These assessments provide a comprehensive evaluation of stablecoins, considering factors like asset backing, regulatory compliance, and technological robustness. USDC, our preferred USD stablecoin, stands out in these assessments, exemplifying resilience and reliability.
As we embark on 2024, the crypto asset market, particularly bitcoin, is poised at a pivotal juncture. With anticipated SEC approvals and the upcoming halving event, we are cautiously optimistic about the market's potential, maintaining a conservative stance to safeguard your investments.
We invite you to delve into our full commentary here for a deeper understanding of these developments and our strategic approach. Your journey through the digital asset landscape is our priority, and we are committed to guiding you with clarity and insight.
Warm regards,
The MidSquare Team
