According to @RiggsBTC on X, Bitcoin (BTC) is poised for an “unprecedented” surge that could lift it to above $9 million in the next two years. Taking to X on December 6, @RiggsBTC asserted\u00a0that the current Bitcoin bull run, which began in late 2022 when prices dumped to as low as $15,000, marks the start of a “supercycle,” a period where BTC will aggressively rally, extending gains.\u00a0 Will Bitcoin Hit $9 Million In 2 Years? The asset manager attributes this potential upsurge to multiple factors. Top of the list is the looming supply shock, considering the expected Bitcoin halving scheduled for early April 2021. @RiggsBTC noted that with less than 21 million BTC in circulation, reducing supply and sustained demand could support Bitcoin, feeding aggressive bulls.

From the analyst’s view, there will only be around 5 million BTC, most of which are from “weak hands” selling to “nation-states and institutions.” This shift will be the basis for a leg up that will see Bitcoin reach $9 million “in 24 months.” Pierre Rochard, the VP of Research at Riot Platforms,\u00a0echoed @RiggsBTC’s sentiment, highlighting the favorable macroeconomic conditions likely to propel Bitcoin even higher. Rochard notes that the U.S. government spends $6 trillion, encompassing $4 trillion in taxes, $2 trillion in borrowing, and $1 trillion in interest payments on its $33 trillion debt. While the government spends huge sums of money on interest payments alone, Bitcoin’s market capitalization remains under $1 trillion. According to CoinMarketCap, BTC had a market cap of $860 billion when writing on December 6. Eyes On The SEC And Bitcoin ETFs Beyond the Bitcoin halving event and supportive macroeconomic factors, the community is also looking at regulators. In early December 2023, the crypto community expects the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to approve the first batch of spot Bitcoin ETFs. This product will provide institutional investors an avenue to get exposure to Bitcoin in a regulated environment, potentially unleashing a wave of capital. Since October, the expectations of a spot Bitcoin ETF in the United States have propped prices.
