BPI Predicts Bitcoin Could Reach $1 Million with US Government Action
In the latest episode of “Bitcoin Policy Hour,” members of the Bitcoin Policy Institute discussed a potential policy decision by the U.S. government that could significantly increase Bitcoin's price.
- Matthew Pines highlighted the stability challenges of the dollar-based system since 1973, particularly due to rising powers like China.
- Zach Shapiro noted concerns about trust in U.S. Treasuries, suggesting gold as an alternative reserve asset and hinting at Bitcoin's potential role alongside it.
- The idea of "marking gold to market" was mentioned, where revaluing gold could generate substantial funds for Bitcoin purchases.
- Pines emphasized the strategic dynamics between the U.S. and China affecting monetary assets like gold and Bitcoin.
- A recent White House executive order established a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, directing agencies to audit current digital asset holdings.
- Implementation challenges arise from internal government debates on budget-neutral methods for acquiring Bitcoin.
- If the Trump administration announces a purchase of one million Bitcoin, it could lead to a dramatic price surge, potentially reaching $1 million per Bitcoin.
Current Bitcoin price stands at $83,594.
