River: in 1.5 to 10% of US companies will own bitcoins
American financial services company River predicts that 10% of US companies will transfer 1.5% of their total bitcoin revenue over the next 18 months eggs
The forecast of River analysts is connected with meeting the fears of institutional investors regarding a potential economic recession in the United States, which may occur by July 2025.
The experts took as an example the strategy of Microstrateg, which actively invests in bitcoin. For example, in June, Michael Ceylop's company sold $800 million worth of bonds, and with the money received bought another 11,931 BTC.
The head of Microstrateg repeatedly spoke about the potential of bitcoin as an investment, calling it an asset that provides "economic security". In Cheylop's opinion, the limited supply of the current cryptocurrency and the absence of risk from counterparties make it an ideal choice for protecting investments and preserving wealth. That is why, River analysts are confident, companies will switch to BTC in the coming months.
Current forecasts indicate a 52.29% probability that the US economy will enter a new recession by July 2025. This figure is three times higher than the estimates of the previous month, but lower than the forecast for January 2025 at 61.47%.
