Billionaire venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya predicts is a $200,000 Bitcoin price for the king cryptocurrency and is detailing his outlook for global stock and crypto markets in the near term. “I think that we’re in the midst of what I would call a melt-up. So probably in the next month, month and a half, there really isn’t much ‘bad news’ that hasn’t been priced in. The thing I’ve learned over the past few years is that markets don’t actually care what the news is. They can process good news and bad news equally well. What they despise is the uncertainty of what the news could be." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The chief executive of a crypto focused hedge fund thinks mass adoption could drive the price of Bitcoin (BTC) up to $400,000 per coin in as little as three years. “Every two years, 10 times more people use cryptocurrency than they did in the past, and that’s been going on for a decade. Every two years, it’s 10 times more. And every two years, the price of crypto’s gone up 10x. And to my mind, it’s that simple that within the next 5-10 years, almost everyone with a smartphone will use cryptocurrencies, and if that’s true, they’re going to be at a much higher price.” Morehead also unveils the catalysts that he thinks will drive Bitcoin’s price to $400,000 by 2025. “I think it will actually be some number like that. All the use cases that are really rolling out and people are using it. Now institutional investors are really investing in the space, from taking it 10 or 20 basis points to maybe in 10 years, 8% of their portfolio.” Learn more about your ad choices.

On March 16, Arthur Hayes, the co-founder of the cryptocurrency exchange Bitmex, published a blog post called “Energy Cancelled,” which describes the economics behind the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and makes a bullish prediction of Bitcoin marching to 7-figures. Hayes explains in his 26-minute long opinion piece that historians may point to February 26, 2022, as the time in history when the “Petro Dollar / Euro Dollar monetary system” ended. “For a single Bitcoin, my unit is in the millions. For an ounce of gold, my unit is in the thousands,” he continued. “That is the magnitude of fiat denominated price that will occur in the coming years as global trade is settled via neutral hard monetary instruments and not the debt-backed fiat currencies of the West.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz is predicting that Bitcoin could rally by over ten times over in a new Bloomberg interview. Novogratz says the king crypto will range for the rest of this year but will hit a six-figure price in five years as adoption of the flagship cryptocurrency grows. “The whole year I thought we would be at $30,000 – $50,000 range in Bitcoin, risk to the upside [and] not the downside. But I think five years out if Bitcoin’s not at $500,000 I’m wrong on the adoption cycle.” The Galaxy Digital CEO says that in 2021, the adoption of BTC happened at a faster rate than internet technology did in the 1990s. “We see an adoption cycle that accelerates. Bitcoin grew so much faster last year [and] crypto grew [more] than the internet did its best years in the 90s. I see this going viral everywhere. If it’s in the Middle East or in you know pension funds in the United States all getting ready to participate.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Macroeconomic guru Lyn Alden is laying out how Bitcoin can ultimately make its way onto the balance sheets of central banks of nation-states. With countries around the world freezing and seizing assets from Russians while sanctioning the country’s assets, Alden says it is demonstrating a solid use case for Bitcoin. "And the bigger Bitcoin gets, the more widely held it is, the more liquidity there is, the more central banks can start looking at that as a viable mutual reserve asset because it kind of fixes two things for them... One, they have an asset that can’t be frozen by a unilateral third party, and two, they also can go around sanctions and they can have permissionless payments, and so that is something you’d think would become more attractive to countries around the world.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Cryptocurrency assets are growing at a far faster pace than the internet, according to macroeconomic expert Raoul Pal. Pal is also detailing specific price targets for Bitcoin based on various rates of adoption moving forward. “Assuming BTC remains one standard deviation below trend it gives a price target of $600,000. If it slows to two standard deviations below trend, then you get a number of around $300,000. Maybe the regression trend should be taken from 2013 to avoid the very early spike. That gives slower growth and lower targets. That gives trend at $700,000, one standard deviation [above] at $350,000 and two standard deviations at $200,000.” Learn more about your ad choices.
