Samson Mow, CEO of Bitcoin-focused firm JAN3, believes Bitcoin is on the brink of an explosive price surge that could make it inaccessible to the average investor.
In a discussion with Anna Tutova, he highlighted how governments worldwide are beginning to recognize Bitcoin’s potential as a reserve asset, which could significantly drive up its value.
He pointed to the Czech National Bank as an example, noting that rather than merely researching the idea, they are actively putting Bitcoin reserves to a vote—an indication of how quickly adoption is accelerating.
Mow warned that governments that hesitate to secure Bitcoin holdings now may soon find themselves unable to afford meaningful reserves.
He cited Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim’s push to include Bitcoin in the city’s financial strategy, framing it as a move to ensure long-term prosperity. However, he cautioned that bureaucratic hurdles could slow down adoption, making it difficult for governments to act before Bitcoin’s price surges beyond reach.
Looking ahead, Mow sees the potential for Bitcoin to hit $1 million in 2025, emphasizing that those who fail to act now may regret missing out on what he views as a rapidly closing window of opportunity.
