Billionaire Bitcoin advocate Max Keiser has made headlines once again with a bold prediction: Bitcoin (BTC) is headed to $850,000 during this current market cycle.
In a recent appearance, Keiser argued that Bitcoin should trade at parity with gold in terms of market capitalization, which would represent a tenfold increase from BTC’s current price level of around $110,000.
“Bitcoin could easily go to $850,000 a coin during this cycle—say, the next five years,” Keiser said. “A 1,000% return in five years is a reasonable expectation.”
Keiser’s core thesis is that Bitcoin is a superior version of gold, and thus it should eventually equal or surpass gold’s total market cap, which currently sits at around $14–15 trillion.
Why Bitcoin > Gold?
According to Keiser, Bitcoin not only matches gold’s core properties—scarcity, portability, and durability—but surpasses it in terms of security, divisibility, and ease of global transfer.
“It does everything gold does, but it does it better,” he stated.
Bitcoin’s capped supply of 21 million coins, combined with increasing institutional adoption, regulatory clarity, and global monetary shifts, strengthens the argument for long-term price appreciation, Keiser said.
While Keiser framed his forecast within a five-year window, it reflects a growing chorus of macro thinkers who believe Bitcoin is entering a supercycle—driven by global liquidity expansion, dollar debasement, and a search for neutral, non-sovereign stores of value.
If BTC does reach $850,000, it would solidify Bitcoin’s status not just as digital gold—but as the dominant monetary asset of the 21st century.
