Scaramucci Sees $170K BTC Post-Halving: “Buy Bitcoin, Get Ready”

In a recent interview on CNBC, SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci challenged the prevailing sentiment surrounding the impending Bitcoin halving event, scheduled for this month. While some analysts argue that the halving has already been factored into the market’s pricing, Scaramucci believes that there is ample room for further appreciation in bitcoin’s value.

Scaramucci’s Bullish Stance

His stance hinges on the notion that Bitcoin, often hailed as digital gold, possesses significant upside potential, akin to its rival. Drawing parallels with the valuation of gold, Scaramucci predicts bitcoin surging six to ten times from its current levels, stating:

“I’m simply saying it should trade to half of the valuation of gold, which is a six to eight, ten times move from here. However, it’s not going to happen overnight, it’s going to come with great volatility.”

While Scaramucci predicts bitcoin’s price to increase 6 to 10 fold in the long run, he places bitcoin’s price target for this cycle at a staggering $170,000 post-halving, a figure that aligns with multiple experts’ forecasts. Notably, later in February, renowned analyst Peter Brandt shared his outlook, setting a $200,000 target for bitcoin.

Additionally, he drew parallels between bitcoin and gold as stores of value and speculated on its eventual recognition by traditional investors like Warren Buffett.

Massive Demand Via ETFs

Driving SkyBridge Capital founder’s optimism are the waves of demand and adoption sweeping across the Bitcoin market. The introduction of spot Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) has injected newfound liquidity, with over $10 billion in new flows flooding into Bitcoin. According to him, this influx of institutional interest underscores Bitcoin’s growing prominence as a viable asset class.

However, amid his bullish sentiment, Scaramucci remains cognizant of bitcoin’s inherent volatility and cyclical nature. He acknowledges that the journey towards $170,000 will not be stable, with price fluctuations and market dynamics playing pivotal roles.

Nonetheless, Scaramucci’s conviction in Bitcoin’s long-term potential remains strong, as evidenced by his resolute call to action: “Buy Bitcoin. Get ready.”

Federal Debt and Bitcoin

In a recent post on X, Scaramucci amplified his advocacy for Bitcoin in response to projections from the Congressional Budget Office. He signaled alarming trends in the trajectory of U.S. federal debt. With forecasts indicating a rise to 116% by 2034, surpassing levels observed during World War II, Scaramucci displayed concerns about the dire fiscal implications.

Against this backdrop, Bitcoin emerges as a potential hedge against economic uncertainty. SkyBridge Capital’s founder states:

“Buy Bitcoin. Get ready. They won’t stop.”

Meanwhile, bitcoin is currently trading around the $68,000 level, down by 3% in the past seven days. However, the largest digital asset has surged by almost double in less than six months.

Whether bitcoin will indeed soar to $170,000 remains to be seen, but Scaramucci continues to champion Bitcoin’s cause. His bold predictions and unwavering faith in its potential serve as a beacon of optimism for enthusiasts and investors alike.
