Bitcoin (BTC) Price Could Surpass $100K in 2024 Due to Increased Adoption of Digital Assets – ETC Group Report

The ETC Group has shared their 2024 Outlook report which provides a forward-looking analysis of the crypto-asset market, with a focus on Bitcoin, as the industry heads into a pivotal year.

The report encompasses a comprehensive examination of “the interplay between macroeconomic factors, on-chain developments, and their collective impact on the future trajectory of Bitcoin and other significant crypto-assets.”

To quote the report from ETC Group:

“The journey of cryptoassets, especially Bitcoin, is intricately linked with broader economic trends and technological advancements. As we navigate this complex terrain, we foresee a heightened interest in Bitcoin and other cryptoassets, not just as investment vehicles but as integral components of a diversified financial portfolio. In essence, 2024 is set to be a year when cryptoassets, led by Bitcoin, may not only weather the storm of economic uncertainties but also emerge stronger, marking a new era of digital financial innovation and adoption.”

Institutional Adoption and Market Growth

According to the ETC Group update, the entrance of major players like BlackRock into the Bitcoin space has “set the stage for increased institutional adoption.”

The ETC Group report forecasts “a continuous growth trajectory for Bitcoin, with potential all-time highs, surpassing 100k USD by the end of 2024.” This optimism is fueled “by factors like the Bitcoin Halving event, increasing scarcity of Bitcoin supply, and growing mainstream interest.”

Macroeconomic Influence

As stated in a post by ETC Group, global macroeconomic conditions, “particularly the anticipated US recession and monetary policy changes, are identified as critical influencers for the performance of crypto-assets.” The report analyses how these macro factors “have historically impacted Bitcoin’s price and how they might shape its future.”

On-Chain Developments

Significant attention is given “to on-chain metrics and events, especially the upcoming Bitcoin Halving in April 2024.”

The ETC Group report pointed out that the halving is expected “to have a profound impact on Bitcoin’s price, owing to the resulting supply scarcity.”

The report also discusses “the potential for Bitcoin to decouple from traditional financial markets in the wake of the Halving.”

Ethereum and Altcoins Outlook

Ethereum‘s performance, especially in comparison to Bitcoin, “is thoroughly examined.”

The report predicts a possible reversal “in Ethereum’s relative underperformance, driven by its technological advancements and unique position as a leading smart contract platform.”

The dynamics of other major altcoins “are also explored in relation to market trends and Bitcoin’s performance.”

Strategic Recommendations

The report offers strategic insights for investors considering cryptoassets in their portfolio. It emphasizes the importance of “understanding market cycles, the impact of macroeconomic factors, and the need for a balanced approach towards investment in this volatile and rapidly evolving market.”

The ETC Group report concluded:

“Our analysis indicates that 2024 could be a landmark year for Bitcoin, potentially reaching new alltime highs and breaking the 100k USD barrier. This optimism is grounded in a confluence of factors, including the increasing scarcity of Bitcoin supply, heightened institutional interest, and significant macroeconomic shifts. The anticipated US recession and shifts in global monetary policy are likely to play a crucial role in the cryptoasset market dynamics, presenting both risks and opportunities.”
