🪙 The investment director at Bitwise presented a valuation model suggesting that a target price of $1 300 000 per BTC by 2035 is actually conservative.

It assumes that Bitcoin’s share of gold’s market capitalization will grow from 9% to 25%.

Moreover, given the current pace of gold’s market cap expansion, even a $1 million target for BTC now appears almost understated.
