In September’s crypto outlook newsletter, Bloomberg’s analyst Mike McGlone observed that the price of Bitcoin (BTC) could either be heading to the $500,000 mark, or it could fail. McGlone has continued to reiterate that in his view, Bitcoin is set to become digital gold. He emphasized once again how Bitcoin’s limited supply and increasing demand were key adoption indicators, and drew comparisons to the 2017 bull run:
The estimates that the analyst refers to are likely based on assumptions that Bitcoin’s market capitalization will eventually reach parity with gold’s $9 trillion. Dividing that number by the maximum supply of Bitcoin of 21 million produces $428,571. A similar sentiment was recently voiced by The Morgan Creek Digital co-founder Anthony Pompliano.
