Bitcoin’s Progress in the Market
Hougan noted that Bitcoin is supported by large global financial institutions and remains robust despite various market fluctuations. However, he believes that Bitcoin has not yet fully matured. Hougan argues that media trust is low, and corporate adoption rates still remain at limited levels.
He highlighted the rapid increase in US national debt, with the Treasury adding nearly one trillion dollars in just 100 days. This situation has led investors to seek safe havens. According to him, if the need for value storage grows, this market will expand and present new opportunities for Bitcoin.
Most Likely Scenario: Bull Market
Hougan stated that the most likely scenario is for Bitcoin to increase its market share and for the value storage market to grow. He expressed that this dual development would create significant opportunities for Bitcoin. “Bitcoin can reach 200,000 dollars without needing the dollar to decline. It can achieve this level by taking a slice of the gold market,” he says.
Hougan also mentioned that Bitcoin currently represents about 7% of the gold market’s value. He suggests that if this percentage increases, Bitcoin’s value could rise significantly as well. Emphasizing Bitcoin’s potential to perform strongly and reach new peaks, Hougan believes it will continue to present attractive opportunities for investors in the future.
