ARK Invest: Bitcoin (BTC) could exceed one million dollars in the coming years

ARK Invest expressed, in a recent report, the belief that the price of Bitcoin (BTC) could exceed one million dollars in the coming years and pointed out that the long-term opportunity for Bitcoin is getting better and better.

According to the report, Bitcoin’s unique features could offer people a way out of centralized monetary systems “that have failed to offer strong financial assurances.”

Going a step further, ARK Invest points out that four billion people live under authoritarian regimes, two billion people are forced to endure double-digit inflation, and one billion people are forced to waste much of their money paying commissions on remittances they rely on for a living.

As a “currency revolution”, ARK Invest highlights that BTC has proven to be resilient to scrutiny, inflation and crises, and transparent.

To highlight how useful it is, ARK Invest reported that in 2022 BTC recorded $38.7 trillion in transaction volume, representing over 36% of the total value of $105.3 trillion transferred since Bitcoin’s launch in 2009.

In terms of Bitcoin’s existing trend, ARK Invest believes that BTC may experience the worst decline in the cryptocurrency industry in 2022:

“In 2022, the capitulation of Bitcoin holders was similar to that at the lows of the previous cycle.”

Three price targets

Looking at the long-term potential of Bitcoin, ARK Invest presents three price targets for Bitcoin.

According to the report:

  • The firm’s “bear case” scenario wants BTC to reach $258,500 by 2030
  • The “base case” scenario sees BTC rising to $682,800 by 2030
  • The “bull case” estimates that Bitcoin will “climb” to $1.48 million by 2030

Sources of new funds

ARK Invest presents eight markets that could be a source of new capital inflows for Bitcoin:

  • corporate fund
  • Corporate finance company; corporate capital fund; remittance asset
  • a nation-state treasury
  • emerging market currency
  • financial settlement network
  • asset resistant to seizure
  • institutional investments
  • digital gold

ARK Invest explained that the bear, base and bull scenarios will depend on the percentage of Bitcoin penetration in each of the above markets.

  • CFTC Warns Prediction Markets: Trader Incentive Programs May Encourage False Trading and Market Manipulation

    On August 13, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Market Oversight Division issued a regulatory advisory reminding designated contract markets (DCM) of their regulatory obligations when self-certifying market maker, liquidity, trading, or incentive programs under CFTC Rules 40.5 and 40.6. The advisory addresses the increasing number of incentive program rule filings submitted under CFTC Rule 40.6(a), particularly those related to event contract products. The CFTC noted that some of these filings contain procedural or substantive deficiencies. These deficiencies may hinder staff's ability to assess whether the DCM has adequately notified the terms of the programs and whether it has sufficiently evaluated the compliance of the relevant programs with core principles and other regulatory requirements of the Commission. The guidance clarifies staff expectations regarding the procedural and substantive requirements when submitting materials under CFTC Rules 40.5 and 40.6, including initial submissions of incentive programs, amendments or changes to relevant programs, and submission procedures.

  • Bullish Sentiment in Bond Market Rises as 10-Year Treasury Yield Falls Below 1.7%

    On August 13, the domestic bond market has seen a continued rise in bullish sentiment, with long-term rates experiencing a significant breakthrough. Market data shows that after fluctuating around 1.7% for several days, the yield on the 10-year Treasury bond fell below the 1.7% mark again on August 12, closing at 1.694%. Meanwhile, the yield on the 30-year Treasury bond also declined, closing at 2.160%, marking a low for the year. Industry insiders believe that the current bond market trend is driven by multiple factors including expectations of loose monetary policy, a balanced and relaxed funding environment, and institutional investors increasing their positions. However, after the key level was breached, the market's bullish and bearish dynamics intensified, and the effective conditions for a sustained downward trend in interest rates still need further validation.

The Revolutionary Guard has been severely damaged and is in retreat, while their 'leadership' can at best be described as uncertain! They have no funds—this country is already 'full of holes.' All they have are fake news and 300% inflation, and the situation is worsening! Iran is now just talk without action, no longer the bully of the Middle East!"
