Previous speculation has resurfaced regarding one of the largest potential Bitcoin buy-ins in the history of cryptocurrency. According to crypto analyst Justin Verrengia, there are indications that Saudi Arabia and Qatar may be gearing up for an enormous Bitcoin purchase, with an official announcement anticipated in the coming week.\u00a0 Saudi Arabia, Qatar Rumored To Purchase 1 Million BTC In a recent video published on X (formerly Twitter), Verrengia, the host of the popular crypto channel Crypto News Alert spoke on the recent rumors sparked by crypto analyst Mark Keiser regarding a potential large-scale Bitcoin purchase by Middle Eastern country Saudi Arabia and sovereign state Qatar.\u00a0 Related Reading: JP Morgan Reveals Likelihood Of Spot Ethereum ETFs Getting Approved The crypto analyst disclosed that both governments are potentially considering purchasing about 1 million Bitcoins valued at around $500 billion. Verrengia compared the large-scale buy-in with the 1.1 million BTC held in the wallet address owned by pseudonymous Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. He hinted that Saudi Arabia and Qatar may be planning to purchase this staggering sum of Bitcoin using their sovereign wealth funds.\u00a0 In his video, Verrengia showcased several X posts from Bitcoin maximalist, Mark Keiser, who has been spreading speculations about the possibility of a large-scale Bitcoin purchase by Saudi Arabia and Qatar since 2023.\u00a0 Keiser suggested in his posts that the potential 1 million BTC investment by these two governments could make asset management company BlackRock and crypto intelligence company Microstrategy \u201clook like peanuts\u201d in comparison.\u00a0 The crypto analyst also disclosed that Saudi Arabia may be expanding its interest toward digital currencies. This shift can be seen in the recent partnership between the largest oil company in Saudi Arabia, Saudi Aramco, and Japanese financial service, SBI Holdings. Verrengia has heralded this movement as \u201coil money entering Bitcoin.\u201d\u00a0 BTC price falls to $38,000 | Source: BTCUSD on Tradingview.com Bitcoin Price Sees Potential Rise Above $50,000 In his video, Verrengia also shared a post by Keiser, who predicted a $100,000 god candle if Saudi Arabia and Qatar purchase the 1 million BTC. A god candle here suggests a unique price pattern where the price of Bitcoin shoots upward by 100%, pushing it to new all-time highs.\u00a0 Related Reading: How To Buy, Sell, And Trade Tokens on The Polygon Network Presently, the price of Bitcoin is trading around $38,966.81, reflecting a 9.01% decrease in the past seven days, according to CoinMarketCap. A purchase of 1 million BTC would represent a substantial chunk of the total BTC supply, effectively attracting the attention of institutional investors. This could potentially trigger a Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), driving demand for Bitcoin through the roof and sending Bitcoin\u2019s price above $50,000.\u00a0 In 2023, the hype surrounding the approval of Spot Bitcoin ETFs pushed Bitcoin\u2019s price to a record high above $49,000. A similar result to the coveted $50,000 price mark could be attained if Saudi Arabia and Qatar purchase the rumored 1 million BTC.
