According to Breedlove, his model places Bitcoin to trade at $12.5 million by 2031, a value equivalent to $1 million based on today’s purchasing power, he said during an appearance on Altcoin Daily podcast on September 13.
Collapsing dollar purchasing power
He notes that the dollar is hyperinflated and will potentially drop to zero by 2035. Furthermore, Breedlove, noted that once the dollar hits its bottom of zero, there will be no need of pricing Bitcoin anymore. Interestingly, the former hedge fund manager’s sentiments come during a period when the dollar is running rampant against most global fiat currencies. Notably, the situation appears to work in Bitcoin’s favor as more investors ditch their local currencies to invest in Bitcoin. Consequently, Bitcoin has registered a spike in trading volume that culminated in a high of $42.68 billion as of September 29.
Other threats facing Bitcoin
Despite holding a bullish stand on Bitcoin, Breedlove had earlier predicted that the asset faces a threat of being wiped out by several black swan events. As reported by Finbold, Breedlove pointed out that singling out the specific event is challenging but any incident that radically reduces the hash rate will potentially lead to a Bitcoin wipeout. Furthermore, he pointed out that the regulatory aspect is key in Bitcoin’s future. He noted that if Bitcoin threatens the existence of the traditional financial sector, regulators might step in.
