Michael Saylor, the founder of MicroStrategy and a well-known Bitcoin bull, recently shared his optimistic outlook for Bitcoin’s future. Speaking to CNBC on November 14, Saylor ruled out the possibility of Bitcoin dropping back to $60,000, or even $30,000. Instead, he believes Bitcoin will continue to rise, currently trading at around $87,790.
Saylor is especially confident about Bitcoin reaching $100,000 before the end of 2024. He even joked about throwing a party for the occasion, expecting Bitcoin to break the $100,000 mark before New Year’s Eve. His bullish view aligns with growing trader sentiment, despite concerns over volatility and potential market fluctuations.
Interest rates play a crucial role for Bitcoin traders, as lower rates make traditional investments like bonds less attractive, encouraging people to explore riskier assets like Bitcoin. Some market experts, like Keith Alan from Material Indicators, believe Bitcoin could hit $100,000 by November 28.
However, not everyone shares Saylor’s optimism. CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju warned that Bitcoin could dip below $59,000 by the end of the year, citing an overheated futures market. Despite this, many traders remain hopeful, expecting Bitcoin to continue its upward trend.
Saylor also spoke about the potential impact of Donald Trump’s presidency on the crypto industry, predicting more pro-Bitcoin policies and a shift toward a favorable regulatory framework.
Saylor also praised the U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill, which, if passed, would see the U.S. government accumulate 1 million Bitcoins, a move he believes could provide a $16 trillion benefit over 21 years.
As Bitcoin’s price fluctuates, many traders and investors are closely watching how market conditions, including interest rates, will affect its next moves.
