At the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville, Anthony Scaramucci, founder of SkyBridge Capital, projected that Bitcoin will soon eclipse gold in market capitalization.
Scaramucci argued that Bitcoin should be valued similarly to gold, estimating that Bitcoin could overtake gold’s current $15 trillion-$16 trillion market cap within a decade.
His prediction aligns with earlier forecasts by Anthony Pompliano, who also anticipated Bitcoin surpassing gold in under ten years.
Scaramucci also noted the rising trend of Bitcoin adoption among institutional investors. For example, Wisconsin, Jersey City and Michigan’s state pension funds recently revealed substantial investments in Bitcoin through BlackRock’s and Grayscale’s funds, totaling $164 million.
Additionally, Japan’s Government Pension Investment Fund is exploring Bitcoin as a potential investment, driven by significant economic and technological shifts.
In the corporate sector, DeFi Technologies has joined the trend by purchasing 110 BTC as part of its treasury management strategy.#
This move led to a significant rise in the company’s stock price, highlighting growing interest in Bitcoin among businesses.
A string of red flags is raising the possibility that the crypto market may be sliding into another cold stretch.
Bitcoin appears to be entering a more mature phase, with volatility reaching record lows and institutional interest on the rise.
Bitcoin has seen a volatile week, climbing over 7% and trading near $85,750 as of April 15.
Bitcoin may be gearing up for another rally, and one key macro trend could be the driving force: a surge in global liquidity.
