Bitcoin Could Reach $10 Million Per Coin by 2035 According to Research

Joe Burnett, Director of Market Research at Unchained, predicts Bitcoin could reach $10 million per coin by 2035 in his publication, The Mustard Seed. His analysis focuses on “time arbitrage” and major shifts in capital allocation towards assets with absolute scarcity.

  • Burnett identifies two key transformations driving investment into Bitcoin:
    • The "Great Flow of Capital" into scarce assets.
    • The "Acceleration of Deflationary Technology" through AI and robotics.
  • The global financial system, valued at approximately $900 trillion, faces dilution risks across traditional asset classes:
    • Gold: $20 trillion, mined at ~2% annually.
    • Real Estate: $300 trillion, expanding at ~2.4% per year.
    • Equities: $110 trillion, profits diluted by competition.
    • Fixed Income & Fiat: $230 trillion, subject to inflation.
  • Bitcoin's fixed supply of 21 million coins makes it resistant to dilution, positioning it as a superior store of value.
  • Burnett references models projecting Bitcoin prices at $1.8 million and $2.1 million by 2035 but considers these conservative.
  • AI and automation are expected to significantly reduce costs across industries, enhancing Bitcoin’s purchasing power.
  • Burnett estimates Bitcoin's market cap at $200 trillion represents only 11% of global wealth if growth continues at ~7% annually.
  • As of now, BTC is trading at $83,388.
