Andrew Kang, co-founder of the crypto investment firm Mechanism Capital, predicts that Bitcoin (BTC) could reach $1 million in the short term. Kang attributes this prediction to Bitcoin’s stronger-than-expected recent performance, noting that despite market structure challenges, the largest cryptocurrency could see a significant increase in value.
Listed Catalysts for the $1 Million Target
According to Kang’s prediction, a potential trigger for the significant increase in Bitcoin’s value could be its acceptance as a national reserve asset. However, there is no guarantee of this happening. Nevertheless, rumors that US presidential candidate Donald Trump might recognize Bitcoin as a national reserve asset if re-elected are attracting investor interest. Kang emphasized that such a move would increase Bitcoin’s “asymmetric upside potential,” making it currently undervalued.
If the US adopts such a strategy, other countries might follow suit. Kang also pointed out rumors that major Asian companies could take on roles similar to those of Western companies like MicroStrategy and Coinbase.
Some leading experts and analysts, like Kang, believe that political developments are supporting Bitcoin’s price and that the likelihood of US President Joe Biden withdrawing from the 2024 elections is increasing. These dynamics could continue to attract investors to Bitcoin.
Current Status of Bitcoin
On July 20, Bitcoin surged to $67,648 on the Binance exchange, reaching its highest level in recent times and currently signaling a continuation of the weekend rally around $67,000.
As is known, the largest cryptocurrency took a significant hit from the German government’s sale of 50,000 BTC seized from a film piracy site from late June to early July, which put pressure on the price. With the German government selling all of its BTC holdings, this significant selling pressure on Bitcoin has been lifted.
