Bitcoin at $ 10 million? Experts predict explosive growth by 2035

In a new publication entitled The Mustard Seed, Joe Burnett – Director of Market Studies at UNCHAINED – Pass a thesis that plans Bitcoin reaching $ 10 million per piece by 2035. This first quarterly quarterly letter Takes long opinion, focusing on “time arbitration” while he examines where bitcoin, technology and human civilization could resist a decade from now on.

The Burnett argument revolves around two main transformations which, according to him, prepare the way for an unprecedented migration of world capital to Bitcoin: (1) the “large capital flow” in an asset with an absolute rarity, and (2) “the acceleration of defective technology” as an indication of the AI ​​and the Robotique Reshape Industries.

A long -term perspective on bitcoin

Most economic comments zoom in on the next report on profits or immediate price volatility. On the other hand, the Mustard Seed clearly announces its mission: “Unlike most of the financial comments that are fixed in the next quarter or next year, this letter adopts long opinion – identifying deep changes before becoming consensus.”

At the heart of Burnett’s prospects is the observation that the global financial system – forcing around 900 billions of dollars in total assets – displays the continuous risks of “dilution or devaluation”. Obligations, currencies, actions, gold and real estate each have expansionary or inflationary components that erude their value store function:

• However (20 billions of dollars): operated approximately 2% per year, increasing the offer and slowly diluting its rarity.
• Real estate (300 dollars billions): covers around 2.4% per year due to new development.
• Actions (110 billions of dollars): The benefits of the company are constantly eroded by competition and the saturation of the market, contributing to the risk of devaluation.
• Fixed income and Fiat (230 billions of dollars): structurally subject to inflation, which reduces purchasing power over time.

Burnett describes this phenomenon as a capital “in search of a state of lower potential energy”, comparing the process with cascade water in a cascade. In his opinion, all the pre-coat of asset classes were effectively “open premiums” for dilution or devaluation. Heritage managers could distribute capital among real estate, bonds, gold or shares, but each category transported a mechanism by which its real value could undertake.

Enter Bitcoin, with its hard cap of 21 million of those. Burnett considers this digital asset as the first monetary instrument incapable of being diluted or devalued from the inside. The power supply is fixed; The demand, if it develops, can result directly by an appreciation of the prices. He quotes “The analogy of the waterfall” by Michael Saylor: “Capital naturally seeks the lowest potential energy state – just like the water circuits. Before Bitcoin, wealth had no real escape from dilution or devaluation. The richness stored in each asset class has acted as a market bonus, encouraging dilution or devaluation. »»

As soon as Bitcoin has been widely recognized, says Burnett, the game has changed for capital allowance. Like the discovery of an unexploited reservoir well below existing water pools, the global supply of wealth has found a new catch – a new plug that cannot be increased or diluted.

To illustrate the unique Bitcoin diet, the mustard seed establishes a parallel with the cycle in half. In 2009, minors received 50 BTC per block – full of Niagara falls. To date, the reward has fallen to 3.125 BTC, half recalling the flow of falls several times until it is considerably reduced. In 2065, the newly created Bitcoin supply will be negligible compared to its total volume, reflecting a cascade reduced to a net.

Although Burnett concedes who attempts to quantify the global adoption of Bitcoin was based on uncertain hypotheses, it refers to two models: the Power law model which projects $ 1.8 million per BTC by 2035 and Michael SaylorBitcoin model that suggests $ 2.1 million per BTC by 2035.

He retorts that these projections could be “too conservative” because they often assume reduced yields. In a world of acceleration of technological adoption – and an increasing achievement of Bitcoin properties – price targets could exceed these models significantly.

The acceleration of deflationary technology

A second major catalyst for the potential for the rise in Bitcoin, according to mustard seed, is the deflationary wave caused by AI, automation and robotics. These innovations quickly increase productivity, reduce costs and make goods and services more abundant. By 2035, Burnett estimates that world costs in several key sectors could undergo spectacular discounts.

Adidas’ speedfactories have cut the production of months to day sneakers. The scale of 3D printing lines and assembly lines focused on AI could reduce the manufacturing costs of 10x. 3D printed houses are already increasing 50 times more quickly at much lower costs. The advanced automation of the supply chain, combined with AI logistics, could make the quality housing 10x cheaper. The autonomous driver can potentially reduce prices by 90% by removing labor costs and improving efficiency.

Burnett underlines that, in a Fiat system, natural deflation is often “artificially removed”. Monetary policies – such as persistent inflation and stimulus – inflament prices, the real impact of masking technology on the lower costs.

Bitcoin, on the other hand, would leave the deflation “following its course”, the increase in purchasing power for holders as the goods become more affordable. Depending on his words: “A person who holds 0.1 BTC today (~ $ 10,000) could see their purchasing power increase 100 times or more by 2035 as goods and services become exponentially cheaper.”

To illustrate how the growth of the erodes of a reserve of value over time, Burnett returns Gold performance Since 1970. The nominal Gold price of $ 36 per ounce at around $ 2,900 The ounce in 2025 seems substantial, but this price gain was continuously diluted by the annual increase of 2% of the overall offer of Gold. For five decades, the world’s world stock has almost tripled.

If Gold’s offer had been static, its price would have reached $ 8,618 per ounce by 2025, according to Burnett calculations. This supply constraint would have strengthened the gold shortage, which can push the demand and the price even higher than $ 8,618.

Bitcoin, on the other hand, precisely incorporates the fixed food state that gold has never had. Any new request will not light up the emission of additional parts and should therefore increase the price more directly.

Burnett forecasts for a bitcoin of $ 10 million by 2035 would involve total market capitalization of 200 billions of dollars. Although this figure seems colossal, it emphasizes that it only represents around 11% of the world’s wealth – world wealth insurance continues to extend to an annual rate of ~ 7%. From this point of view, allocating around 11% of the world’s active ingredients in what mustard seed calls “the best long -term store of value assets” may not be eccentric. “Each other value store has perpetually expanded the supply to meet demand. Bitcoin is the first that cannot. »»

A key part of the puzzle is Bitcoin’s security budget: Revenue mine. By 2035, Bitcoin’s Block subsidy fell at 0.78125 BTC per block. At $ 10 million per room, minors could earn $ 411 billion in global income each year. Since minors sell the bitcoin they earn to cover costs, the market is expected to absorb $ 411 billion in newly extracted BTC each year.

Burnett establishes a parallel with the World Wine Market, which was estimated at $ 385 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $ 528 billion by 2030. If a “banal” sector such as wine can maintain this level of demand from consumers, an industry securing the first world -class digital store reaching a similar scale, it supports, is indeed the basis of reasons.
Despite the public’s perception that Bitcoin becomes common, Burnett highlights an under -decade metric: “The number of people worldwide with $ 100,000 or Bitcoin is only 400,000 … or 0.005% of the world’s population – 5 people in 100,000 people.”

Meanwhile, studies could show that around 39% of Americans have a certain level of exposure to “direct or indirect” bitcoin, but this figure includes any fractional property, such as the holding of shares or ETFs linked to Bitcoin through common funds and retirement plans. A real and substantial adoption remains niche. “If Bitcoin is the best long -term savings technology, we would expect anyone with substantial savings to have a substantial amount of bitcoin. However, today, almost no one does. »»

Burnett underlines that the road to $ 10 million does not require Bitcoin to supplant all money in the world – only to “absorb a significant percentage of world wealth”. The strategy for prospective investors, he maintains, is simple but not trivial: ignoring short-term noise, focusing on the multi-year horizon and acting before the global awareness of Bitcoin properties becomes universal. “Those who can see beyond short-term volatility and focus on the situation as a whole will recognize Bitcoin as the most asymmetrical and neglected bet on the global markets.”

In other words, it is “the migration of capital at the front” while the Bitcoin user base is still relatively tiny and the vast majority of traditional wealth remains in inherited active ingredients.

At the time of the press, BTC exchanged $ 83,388.
