1. Optimistic forecast ($500 000 — $1 000 000+). If Bitcoin ultimately establishes itself as "digital gold" and gains the trust of major players — corporations, funds, and even governments — its price could skyrocket. The limited issuance of ( a total of 21 million coins ) will create an artificial scarcity, especially if institutions start buying BTC for reserves. An additional catalyst is the hyperinflation of traditional currencies: in the event of a collapse of the dollar or euro, cryptocurrency could become a safe haven for capital. For comparison: the market capitalization of gold today is around $12 trillion. If Bitcoin captures even half of this space, its price will exceed half a million dollars per coin.
