Experts have predicted that the flagship cryptocurrency, Bitcoin could reach $10 million in 2032, thereby taking its market capitalisation to approximately $200 million.

The CEO of Blockstream Adam Back believes the price of Bitcoin (BTC) could reach $10 million by the end of the sixth halving in 2032.

Explaining in a thread on the Twitter platform, Adam Back noted that the $10 million mark is possible as long as Bitcoin layer-2 technology and wallet infrastructure improves. 

Back added that BTC has doubled in price year-on-year on average since 2013, noting that if the trend continues, Bitcoin’s price will reach $10 million, along with a $200 trillion market cap, in around nine years.

Investors King understands that Bitcoin layer-2 technology is a protocol that helps to solve the transaction speed and scaling difficulties that are being experienced while mining BTC. 

While responding to a comment on the thread, Back said he believes Bitcoin adoption hasn’t reached the bottom of the S-curve yet, as only 1-2% of the world population has tapped into Bitcoin. He predicts more investors will begin to “stack” BTC into cold storage wallets.

The adoption of Bitcoin by more people and institutional investors will instil confidence in the “digital goal as a store of value and a means of transactions. 

Already, a number of countries have begun to enact laws that will regulate the cryptocurrency market, thereby paving way for mainstream adoption while a handful of multinationals including Tesla hold Bitcoin on their balance sheet. 

Similarly, the CEO of Apple, Tim Cook also confirmed in one of his interviews that he personally holds bitcoin and a number of cryptocurrencies. 

Adam Back further disclosed that hyperinflation will also be a major cause for the new adoption as many people will turn to bitcoin to hedge against inflation. 

Part of that next wave of adoption may come from “hyperbitcoinization spurts”, where people in hyperinflationary environments will “rush” to bitcoin as a safe haven.

Bitcoin Fails to Hold $63,000 Amid Weak Risk Appetite, Growing Selling Pressure

Published

bitcoin to Nigerian Naira - Investors King

Bitcoin remains below $63,000 after failing to hold above it over the past two days while Ethereum is also struggling to reclaim $2,440.

The crypto market has been trading sideways since the beginning of this week.

The cautious moves in the crypto market come amid uncertainty over a range of economic and political factors in the US and geopolitics in the Middle East.

Add to that the potential selling pressure that the US government may exert with its permission to sell around 70,000 Bitcoin.

The Supreme Court has allowed the US Marshals Service to proceed with the sale of 69,370 Bitcoins seized from the Silk Road online store, which would be the largest sale of its kind in history. While the nature and pace of this selling is not yet known, it will not necessarily put downward pressure on prices if it is done in over-the-counter (OTC)
transactions, according to Beincrypto.

As for the economic side, in light of the surprise labor market numbers that were much better than expected and Jerome Powell’s hawkish speech, hopes for a rapid continuation of interest rate cuts this year have diminished. While the relatively high rates remain for a longer period and the continued rise in Treasury bond yields will weaken appetite for risky assets in general, including cryptocurrencies.

Whereas, after the hypothesis of a half-percentage point cut at the next November meeting was the most likely, it has now become excluded in the Fed Fund futures market, and the probability of a quarter-percentage point cut has become 87%, according to the CME FedWatch Tool. The remaining 13% is for the possibility of keeping current rates unchanged.

The state of caution may also prevail in the markets in the coming weeks, as we anticipate the presidential elections in the United States, which will begin next month. While the outcome of these elections could cause a structural shift in the crypto industry.

Far away, in the Middle East, markets are still anticipating the nature of the expected escalation in the region, especially regarding the nature of the Israeli response to the unprecedented attack from Iran and the nature of the counter-response. While one of the most prominent scenarios is targeting energy facilities, which would bring inflation back to the forefront, which in turn may require central banks to keep interest rates high.

Will Pump-and-Dump Fun Kill the Meme Coin Frenzy in 2024?

Published

on

meme coin

The meme coin market, once dominated by viral hits like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, is facing a new challenge in 2024: the rise of pump-and-dump schemes masquerading as community-driven fun.

These events, organized on social media platforms, encourage participants to collectively buy a meme coin, inflating its price before early investors quickly sell, leaving many with heavy losses.

While pump-and-dump schemes are not new to crypto, 2024 has seen them take on a new form in the meme coin space, branded as “fun events” or “pump parties.” Communities treat these schemes as a kind of joke, with memes about losing money or rockets crashing back to Earth, softening the blow of financial risk. However, this emerging trend has begun to erode trust in meme coins.

Meme coins, by nature, thrive on internet culture, hype, and community sentiment. Their value is rarely tied to any real utility, making them particularly susceptible to manipulation. As more pump-and-dump schemes surface, many fear that investors, especially newcomers, may begin to associate all meme coins with high risk and fleeting value.

This shift could mark the beginning of the end for the meme coin craze. Established tokens like Dogecoin may survive thanks to their strong communities, but lesser-known meme coins may struggle to gain traction as pump-and-dump events increase skepticism.

The future of meme coins depends on whether the community can move past these schemes and find more sustainable ways to build value—or risk being seen as nothing more than a fleeting, high-stakes game.
