Missed out on Bitcoin's 87.6% annualized return over the past decade? Honestly, this game might just be getting warmed up.

Looking back at 2015, you could buy a BTC for $430, and many people thought it was gambling at the time. By 2025, $92,000 is already in the rearview mirror. 215x returns? This isn’t some genius’s prediction coming true, but rather the result of three forces colliding: the halving mechanism, global consensus spreading, and institutional capital entering the market.

But here’s the question—can BTC replicate this madness over the next decade?

Let’s start with a conservative scenario. Suppose the growth rate drops to an annualized 30%(which is already impressive), then by 2035, Bitcoin would hit $1.27 million. How would this happen? ETFs continue to attract capital, central banks quietly allocate positions, and companies gradually include BTC in their balance sheets. Steady, but also slow.

Now let’s imagine the extreme. If the 87.6% growth rate continues for another ten years, by 2035 BTC would soar to $50 million per coin. Sounds exciting? But that would mean swallowing up more than half of the global stock market’s value—essentially rewriting the rules of money. Mathematically possible, but in reality—forget it.

The most plausible scenario is likely somewhere in the middle. Annual growth of 20%-35% would put BTC in the $600,000 to $1.5 million price range. Why? Because supply being halved every four years is hardcoded, the ETF floodgates are open and can’t be shut, and more importantly—more and more people are starting to see BTC as “digital gold” instead of a speculative token.

Ten years ago, if someone told you BTC could go up 200x, you probably thought it was just wishful thinking. Now, if someone says it could break a million dollars, it feels completely different, right? History doesn’t repeat itself, but one thing never changes: the market always puts a high price on scarcity.
