Is Bitcoin About to Go Full Mount Everest? Cathie Wood Thinks So!

So, in the latest episode of “Let’s Talk About Money & Hope It Doesn’t Crash,” Cathie Wood, the queen bee of ARK Invest, drops a bomb—because what’s more fun than predicting the end of the world? She told some guy on the Diary of a CEO podcast that January 2024’s “green-light” for spot-Bitcoin ETFs is like opening Pandora’s box filled with institutional cash. And by “institutions,” she means those guys who control “trillions of dollars,” but are basically peeing in a kiddie pool with just a “hundred billion” in Bitcoin exposure—because, you know, only a million Bitcoin remain to be mined. No big deal. 😅

Why Cathie Wood Is Fantasizing About $1.5 Million Per Bitcoin

Her number? A cool $1.5 million per Bitcoin by 2030! Just a tiny, innocent 15-fold increase from today’s price. Basically, she’s saying, “Hold onto your hats, people—Bitcoin is about to become the new *El Dorado.*” She explains that since about 20 million Bitcoin exist and big funds like BlackRock have already gobbled up over a million—like hungry hippos—there’s not much Bitcoin left for the little guy. During “quiet” days, billions of dollars flow into Bitcoin funds, sometimes snatching hundreds of coins in one go. Basically, if large institutions keep stacking, the supply will run out faster than your Netflix subscription. 🎬

The SEC Gave Bitcoin a Pat on the Back

Apparently, the SEC’s thumbs-up is like a giant hall pass for Bitcoin to sit at the grown-ups’ table. Wood compares it to the ’90s adoption of index funds—once big pension funds showed up, everyone else had to follow or look lame. She’s been there, done that, buying Bitcoin (or GBTC, at least) at $250 back in 2015—so she’s basically the OG of HODLing. Her long-term dream? Bitcoin is *the* rules-based system we’ve all been waiting for since the US decided to go off the gold standard in 1971. Because nothing says “trust me” like math and algorithms that no politician can cheat. 💻

Emerging markets are already whispering, “Hey, that ‘digital gold’ thing sounds better than devalued paper!” She sees a future where Bitcoin becomes the global reserve because governments are basically just spending their money like it grows on trees—or not. Plus, she’s noting that “volatility” is like a rollercoaster—scary but kind of fun, especially when derivatives markets and ETFs start to slow down the wild swings. 🎢

And brace yourselves: with bitcoin ETFs now holding more Bitcoin than Satoshi’s wallet ever did, Wood warns that the supply is basically capped. “Sorry, folks, no more Bitcoin to go around,” she says. “If big money wants in, the price has to *skyrocket*, and fast.” So, whether you’re ready or not, the market’s about to experience a *drama* that makes “Game of Thrones” look chill. The only thing left to do? Watch, wait, and maybe start putting your pennies under the mattress. 💰

At press time, BTC traded at $107,200. Yeah, you read that right.
