The trillions required to boost Bitcoin to a price of $1 million per coin is not going to happen by 2030… or perhaps ever, says party pooper Markus Thielen.
The numbers behind the oft-cited prediction that Bitcoin will reach $1 million by 2030 simply don’t add up, according to Markus Thielen, head of research at 10x Research.

To $1 million [per] Bitcoin. It’s 15x, I think, from here,” Thielen says.
