Crypto  Cathie Wood Predicts $25,000,000,000,000 Crypto Market Valuation in 2030 Fueled by Institutional Bidding: Report  2 minutos atrás  Notícias do Bitcoin Ethereum  ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood is reportedly predicting a more than 2,100% increase in the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies in less than seven years.

Diz Madeira,  According to Benzinga, Wood predicts that the institutional investment would send the current $1.13 trillion crypto market cap up to as high as $25 trillion by sometime in 2030, and Bitcoin would comprise more than half of that total market cap.  The veteran investor says that ARKs “base case” for Bitcoin is a price of roughly $650,000 in 2030, and a more bullish case of about double that.  O Bitcoin está
