Notably, Bitcoin’s growing appeal has been accompanied by higher price expectations as many industry leaders have offered their opinions on the asset’s short-term and long-term performance. The former CEO of Binance recently predicted Bitcoin’s future prospects, claiming that it will surpass the market capitalization of gold.

Bitcoin to $850,000

CZ During a panel discussion at the Bitcoin MENA 2024 conference in Abu Dhabi, Zhao implied that Bitcoin will surpass $850,000. He based his theory on the fact that Bitcoin will surpass gold’s $16 trillion market capitalization. The former CEO claimed that Bitcoin’s growth trajectory will be superior to that of gold, as Bitcoin is a new technology while gold is an old financial instrument. He asserted that comparing Bitcoin to gold is not fair, as the digital asset has many advantages and “can do more” than the precious metal.

As a result, he maintained that Bitcoin will create an industry larger than the empire of gold. Notably, if it reaches the market capitalization of gold, which is currently $18.25 trillion, Bitcoin will trade at $921,976 per coin.
