Pantera Capital CEO Dan Morehead has predicted that Bitcoin could reach a price of $740,000 per coin within the next few years, driven by the broader adoption of blockchain technology in the financial sector. In a recent note to investors, Morehead outlined the vast untapped potential for blockchain, noting that 95% of global financial wealth has yet to engage with the technology.
Morehead emphasized that the financial industry is in the early stages of a “massive transformation” as more institutional and retail investors begin to embrace blockchain. “When they do, Bitcoin might be at something like $740,000 per Bitcoin,” Morehead stated.
Should Bitcoin hit this price, it would push its market capitalization to $15 trillion, a substantial figure, but still far from the $500 trillion in total global financial assets. Morehead suggested that this milestone could occur by April 2028, although he acknowledged that the timeline could extend further as adoption continues to build.
Bitcoin’s historical price growth has already seen three major increases in its value, according to Morehead, and he believes another such surge is within the realm of possibility. He framed Bitcoin and blockchain assets as having a uniquely compelling investment case, with potential returns far outweighing their risk profile.
“The expected value of the trade is the most compelling I have seen in almost forty years of doing this,” Morehead remarked, expressing cautious optimism for the sector’s long-term growth. As of the latest data, Bitcoin is trading at $93,192, after facing resistance at the $100,000 mark, though analysts continue to speculate that the cryptocurrency’s price could soon break through this key threshold.
