The firm outlines three possible scenarios for Bitcoin over the next five years:
Bear Case: $300,000 per BTC
Base Case: $710,000 per BTC
Bull Case: $1.5 million per BTC
Ark’s forecast is based on increasing institutional adoption, Bitcoin being a hedge against inflation and being in corporate treasuries and sovereign reserves. CEO Cathie Wood has been consistent in her long term bullish view, citing Bitcoin’s unique value proposition and scarcity as the drivers of future growth.
Institutional Inflows and Market Resilience
A big driver of Bitcoin’s price surge is institutional investment. The report shows a big increase in Bitcoin on corporate balance sheets, from $11 billion in 2023 to $55 billion in 2024. The launch of US spot Bitcoin ETFs was a major moment, with over $4 billion in inflows on the first day.
Despite sell side pressure Bitcoin showed remarkable resilience in 2024. Ark’s analysis points to two big events that tested Bitcoin’s market:
German Government BTC Sell-Off: Over 50,000 BTC were liquidated.
Mt. Gox Creditor Repayments: More than 109,000 BTC were distributed.
Despite these big outflows Bitcoin’s price went from $53,000 to $68,000, showing strong demand. Also Bitcoin’s aggregate cost basis hit an all time high of $40,980 per BTC, indicating investor confidence.
The Impact of Bitcoin’s 2024 Halving
Ark Invest attributes part of its bullish forecast to the 2024 halving, a fundamental event that historically precedes long term price appreciation. This event reduces the Bitcoin block reward from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC, effectively constrains new supply. Historically previous halvings have been followed by big price moves and Ark expects the same post 2024.What else is driving Ark’s $1.5M forecast:
Key supply-side dynamics reinforcing Ark’s $1.5M projection include:
Diminished Bitcoin issuance post-halving.
Growing number of long-term holders.
Rising adoption by institutional and sovereign entities.
As Bitcoin becomes digital gold Ark is sticking to their view, it’s going to change the world.
