Summarize this article with:

Bitcoin at 1 million dollars before 2030 makes part of the market dream. However, behind this spectacular projection, one question arises: does the global liquidity really allow to absorb such a surge? A fundamental analysis puts this scenario into perspective and confronts market ambitions with macroeconomic constraints. For investors, the debate also touches on leverage, market expectations, and the actual place bitcoin can occupy in institutional portfolios.

In brief

  • The prediction of a Bitcoin at $1,000,000 by 2030 is deemed mathematically impossible by 10x Research.
  • Reaching this threshold would require a 16x multiplier and a market capitalization of 20 trillion dollars.
  • Global liquidity and net inflows remain insufficient to support such a valuation.
  • Challenging this scenario forces investors to reduce their leverage exposure.

The impossible equation of a bitcoin at one million dollars

This clarification occurred during an interview with Markus Thielen, the founder and head of research at 10x Research. He explains why a bitcoin at $1,000,000 by 2030 is mathematically impossible. Thus, he bases his diagnosis on a purely accounting demonstration, completely opposed to the projections frequently spread by industry figures such as Cathie Wood or Michael Saylor.
