NBA legend Scottie Pippen recently made a shocking prediction—that the price of Bitcoin (BTC) could one day reach $1 million. Although Pippen is not an expert in the cryptocurrency field, his past predictions have often been accurate, drawing significant attention from investors.
Review of Pippen's Predictions
Pippen's prediction is not without basis. In September this year, he boldly predicted that Bitcoin would surpass $84,000 in November, and indeed, Bitcoin exceeded that price point on November 11, approaching $95,000. This accurate prediction further demonstrates Pippen's keen observation of the crypto market.
The Possibility of $1 Million?
Despite the widespread attention Pippen's prediction has garnered, for Bitcoin to reach $1 million, its market cap would need to exceed that of gold, implying that the market would require extremely strong demand and support. Even cryptocurrency bull market supporters like Mike Novogratz (CEO of Galaxy) believe that it could take Bitcoin 5 to 10 years to reach such a monumental milestone.
Views from Supporters
Nevertheless, some industry insiders believe that Bitcoin could see a surge in the future. For instance, Jeff Park from Bitwise Invest believes that if the U.S. government starts building Bitcoin reserves in 2025, this price target might be achievable. However, he also admits that this possibility is low.
In addition, Blockstream's CEO Adam Back also predicts that Bitcoin's market cap could surpass gold by 2025, propelling Bitcoin to become the new core of global finance.
While Pippen's $1 million prediction seems somewhat aggressive, the growing status of Bitcoin in the global economy over the coming years cannot be ignored. Regardless, this prediction brings new expectations for cryptocurrency investors and fills the market with more speculation and hope regarding Bitcoin's future direction.
