In the past decade, if you missed out on Bitcoin's 87.6% annual compound growth rate, don't worry, the real story may just be beginning.
In 2015, a Bitcoin priced at $430 seemed like an adventure; by 2025, a Bitcoin worth $92,000 has become history. Behind this 215-fold increase is a crypto epic written by halving cycles, global consensus, and institutional money.
But every legend has a turning point. In the next decade, Bitcoin will face not whether it can rise, but in what manner it rises.
Two futures lie before you. If you believe in rationality, when the growth rate returns to a sustainable 30% annual rate, you will see Bitcoin at $1.27 million by 2035. This is the realistic path paved by steady institutional inflows and global adoption curves.
If you expect miracles, maintaining the mythic growth rate of 87.6% from the past decade, Bitcoin will reach $50 million by 2035—but that means it would need to consume the global stock market and restructure the monetary system. Mathematics allows it, but the world does not.
The truth often shines in the middle. The most likely future is an annual growth rate of 20%-35%, with a price range of $600,000 to $1.5 million. Behind this number are the funds that ETFs are opening, supply rules that tighten every four years, and an era that is rethinking value storage.
Ten years ago, if someone told you Bitcoin would rise 200-fold, you might not have believed it; today, if someone tells you Bitcoin can reach a million dollars—this time, it carries a different weight. History does not simply repeat itself, but capital always chases scarcity.
