If the Bitcoin BTC price breaks new records by exceeding $23,000, some analysts believe the price of Bitcoin should be much higher.
Scott Minerd, chief investment officer at Guggenheim, an investment fund that manages no less than $ 275 billion in assets worldwide, said on Bloomberg that the price of Bitcoin should be $400,000!
A figure that surprised Bloomberg journalists who asked him how he came up with this astronomical price which is 20 times the current price of BTC.
“Our fundamental work shows that Bitcoin should be worth about $400,000. We are going, even though we have the capacity to do it today, we are going to watch the market and see how the trading goes,”, he said on Bloomberg.
The CIO of Guggenheim briefly explained that Bitcoin will become increasingly scarce and that this scarcity will therefore significantly impact the price of BTC in the future.
Scott Minerd also discusses the properties of Bitcoin which are similar to those of gold.
“Bitcoin has a lot of attribute to gold and at the same time has unusual transaction value.”
The chief investment officer at Guggenheim also reveals that the investment fund did buy Bitcoin when its price was at $10,000.
The Wall Street giant has therefore already made 100% (unrealized) profits on its investment in BTC.
