As shown in the chart, Bitcoin could reach a price of over $400,000 by 2021 considering price behavior in the past. BTC is transitioning from a mere speculative asset into a store of value, as investors are considering adding it to their portfolios. This institutional interest in Bitcoin could mean a “maturation leap” for the cryptocurrency, according to McGlone.
“Well on its way to becoming a global digital reserve asset, a maturation leap in 2021 may be transitioning Bitcoin toward a risk-off asset, in our view.” —He said.
