Goldman's global head of crypto trading Andrei Kazantsev said in December that there was a lot of demand for derivative-type hedging and developing an options market would be the next step for it.<\/p>\n<p>The Wall Street giant's interest in the crypto sector has been increasing since it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-crypto-currency-goldman-sachs-exclusi-idUSKCN2AT390\">relaunched<\/a> its cryptocurrency trading desk in March 2021 after a three-year hiatus.

In early January, an analyst at the bank said Bitcoin could potentially compete with gold as a store of value and start to encroach on its market share.<\/p>\n<p>The lender said that Bitcoin currently holds a roughly 20% share of the &#8220;store of value&#8221; market, of which gold is also a part. Goldman said that if the market share climbs to around 50% it could push the price of Bitcoin to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/finance\/goldman-sachs-says-bitcoin-will-compete-with-gold-store-value-2022-01-05\/\">$100,000<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the lender is also among the camp that is slightly wary of the speed at which traditional banking in some parts of the world is pushing into crypto. Despite the continued interest in crypto, most big banks are still hesitant to dip more than their toes in the sector due to the volatility and lack of regulatory protection.<\/p>\n<p>However, with Biden's executive order coming into force, the regulatory situation around crypto is likely to improve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Goldman Sachs Group is reportedly looking into expanding its crypto-related services by offering clients bilateral crypto options, according to people familiar with the matter.
