ME News, April 15 (UTC+8), Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan said that if Bitcoin is ultimately widely used as a currency and a store of value, its potential market size could exceed the $34 trillion gold market. Hougan noted that in a world where countries weaponize financial systems, Bitcoin is becoming a non-political alternative. He previously predicted that if Bitcoin captures 17% of the value store market within the next decade, the price could reach $1 million per coin; if it also takes on the role of an international currency, the target price would need to be raised further. Currently, Bitcoin’s market cap is about $1.4 trillion, while gold’s market cap is approximately $33.7 trillion. (Source: PANews)
