- Only 0.01% of listed companies globally hold Bitcoin, signaling untapped institutional potential.
- U.S. initiatives aim to bolster Bitcoin’s role in national security amid growing global mining dominance shifts.
According to OKG Research, just 0.01% of publicly traded corporations all around have Bitcoin right now. This shockingly low number emphasizes the unrealized possibility for institutional acceptance of the coin.
Conservative estimates from OKG Research indicate that over the next year, almost $2.28 trillion might find their way into Bitcoin. Such a large influx of money might propel Bitcoin’s price to an anticipated $200,000 in line with like estimates from Standard Chartered Bank, Bernstein, and BCA Research.
Institutional Momentum and Market Volatility Shape Bitcoin’s Future
Particularly considering the expected release of Bitcoin spot ETFs, Bernstein’s study highlights the mounting momentum behind institutional interest. These financial tools are supposed to make Bitcoin more available to traditional investors, hence increasing the attractiveness of the asset.
Likewise, Standard Chartered Bank estimates that, should the legislative environment support crypto innovation and ETF approvals come to pass, Bitcoin might reach $200,000 by the end of 2024. These positive forecasts highlight a common conviction that institutional acceptance will act as a strong stimulant for the value increase of Bitcoin.
Though these forecasts are interesting, it is important to understand the volatility of the crypto market. The $2.28 trillion estimate presents a situation whereby institutional buy-in and favorable legislative conditions coexist peacefully.
This direction could be influenced by elements like macroeconomic changes, market attitude, and possible legislative crackdowns. Still, the growing acceptance of Bitcoin as a valid store of wealth and inflation hedge points to its far from declining importance in world banking.
More broadly, the story of Bitcoin is greatly shaped by geopolitical issues. Important industry player MARA has underlined in CNF earlier on the strategic relevance of Bitcoin to U.S. national security.
MARA’s recommendations include local ASIC production, accumulating Bitcoin reserves, and encouraging investment in U.S.-based mining operations as global mining supremacy moves toward nations like China and Russia.
