Ark Invest Expects Bitcoin to Become a Multitrillion-Dollar Market — Predicts BTC Price Could Reach $1.48 Million

Investment management firm Ark Invest says bitcoin is “likely to scale into a multi-trillion dollar market.” In its new report, the firm offers three bitcoin price predictions, including a bull case where bitcoin could rise to $1.48 million per coin. Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood sees bitcoin as “an insurance policy for everyone against the confiscation of wealth.”

Ark Invest: Bitcoin Price Could Reach $1.48 Million

Ark Investment Management (Ark Invest) published its annual Big Ideas 2023 last week. The report “highlights the technological breakthroughs evolving today and creating the potential for super-exponential growth tomorrow,” Ark Invest’s analysts explained. The topics discussed in the report include artificial intelligence (AI), digital wallets, public blockchains, bitcoin, and smart contract networks.

Regarding bitcoin, the Ark Invest analysts wrote:

We believe Bitcoin’s long-term opportunity is strengthening. Despite a turbulent year, Bitcoin has not skipped a beat. Its network fundamentals have strengthened and its holder base has become more long-term focused.

They emphasized: “Contagion caused by centralized counterparties has elevated Bitcoin’s value propositions: decentralization, auditability, and transparency.”

The investment management firm provided three different price predictions for bitcoin in this year’s Big Ideas report, instead of a single prediction offered in the previous year. The “bear case” prediction puts BTC at $258,500 by 2030 while the “bull case” prediction sees the price of the cryptocurrency reaching $1.48 million per coin. The firm also offered a “base case” price target for BTC of $682,800, using the assumptions deemed most likely to occur.

Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood has long been a supporter of bitcoin. She explained in an interview with Bloomberg last week why she and her investment firm remain bullish about the future outlook for the largest cryptocurrency.

“In the last three years, the fiscal and monetary responses to Covid in many countries are causing hyperinflation and physical crises. We are seeing protests and riots all over the place,” she described. “Well, where do these people go for an insurance policy against an implosion in their purchasing power and wealth? … It is in something like bitcoin.” The Ark Invest executive elaborated:

Bitcoin is an insurance policy, and it is an insurance policy for everyone against the confiscation of wealth.
