Orion Depp Announces the Launch of Orion Depp Institutional Crypto Research

Los Angeles, CA - January 17, 2025 - Orion Depp, a seasoned institutional crypto research analyst, announces the launch of Orion Depp Institutional Crypto

Institutional crypto analyst Orion Depp has announced the launch of Orion Depp Institutional Crypto Research, a service designed to cater to the needs of institutional buy-side crypto funds. The initiative will provide actionable trade theses through rigorous fundamental analysis, encompassing valuation research, special situations analysis, and catalyst identification.

As the first institutional crypto analyst in the United States to cover altcoins, Orion initiated coverage of Binance Coin ($BNB) in February 2018, forecasting Binance’s rise to great heights when BNB was trading under $10. This analysis, centered on tokenomics, business model profitability, and upcoming catalysts, played a role in garnering market recognition for BNB and facilitating broader institutional acceptance of altcoins in the U.S. and globally. Following this, Orion co-founded Master Ventures Investment Management, an institutional crypto venture capital fund, and has advised over 20 leading crypto projects in the Solana, Sui, and Ethereum ecosystems, among others.

Highlighting the current market landscape, Orion states, “The crypto market has matured significantly over the past five years, but there remains a glaring gap in research. Institutional funds value deep fundamental research from firms like Messari and listen to coin-specific insights from key opinion leaders (KOLs) on crypto Twitter. However, what’s missing is concise, actionable research with clear catalysts and relative valuation analysis, similar to the research that buy-side hedge funds rely on in equity markets. With over two decades of experience producing institutional-grade research in the equities markets I’m excited to bring a similar approach to the crypto markets.”

Emphasizing the opportunities present in undervalued crypto projects amidst the extended bear market, Orion adds, “There are between 50 and 100 projects valued at under $100 million in FDV, many of which are backed by elite venture capital firms and are industry leaders with millions of users in their ecosystems. These projects are often just now launching their products and garnering recognition. Some have huge upcoming catalysts that could help unlock their potential. I’ll be covering special situations such as these and BNB in 2018, with fundamental, objective research.”

The re-launch of Orion Research is geared towards providing institutional crypto funds and crypto whales with a comprehensive range of insights. Key Offerings of Orion Depp Institutional Crypto Research Coverage Universe and Publication Details
