That previously besieged prophecy is now being brought up again: Bitcoin will grow at an average annual rate of 30% over the next ten years.

At first glance, it sounds like bragging, but the numbers make it serious.

What does 30% mean? Doubling in three years. Over ten years, that’s like a 13-fold increase. Currently, one BTC can buy a car. Following this logic, by 2030, it might match the valuation of a medium-sized company, and by 2035, what level of purchasing power could a digital asset reach?

Using compound interest: if BTC doubles every three years, then over ten years—$1.4 million is no longer a joke, but a result of basic calculations.

The issue isn’t whether it will rise or not. The key question is: in the global asset market, is there an option more scarce, more inflation-resistant, and easier for large institutions to directly allocate than Bitcoin?

Scarcity is embedded in the code and cannot be bypassed. Institutions have been pouring in real money these past two years. The entire asset ecosystem is moving toward digitization. These aren’t stories; each one is like laying bricks for the price.

Is he a lunatic, or has he seen through something in advance?

The magic of compound interest is turning "bragging" into the "foundation." 1.4 million sounds unbelievable, but when broken down, there's really nothing wrong with it.

1.4 million? Mathematically, no problem, but this assumes no black swans, no regulatory explosions, and that global capital truly continues to flow in... Even with probability theory, it's still a bit uncertain.

1.4 million? Uh... I've heard that number in too many versions, and it's always different each time. With compound interest, it does sound impressive, but history always proves those "guaranteed" predictions wrong. Scarcity ≠ price ceiling; these two concepts are often confused. Institutional entry is a fact, but don't mistake correlation for causation. Ten years is too long; I only care whether the crypto market can still be played next year. Where are those who shouted 100,000 back then now?

1.4 million sounds a bit exaggerated, but I have to admit that compound interest is indeed powerful. Scarcity is well explained; if the code is hardcoded, it can't run. Wait, are institutions really entering the market in large numbers? I haven't seen much of that in the news. The logic of doubling in three years sounds smooth, but what if a black swan event occurs in one of those years? Compared to 1.4 million, I'm more concerned about when I can pay directly with BTC at the supermarket... It's probably not too late to enter now. If the growth rate is 30% over ten years, Another price target that has been overly pessimized—why is it being brought up again?

1.4 million dollars, this number is indeed outrageous, but think about how much global M2 has grown over the years... maybe it's not that exaggerated after all.

$1.4 million? That's correct, but the key is whether we can hold on until that day.

1.4 million, can it really be reached? To be honest, I kind of believe it now, but I still think there are too many variables. To be safe, I think I'll start by investing a portion first.

复利这玩意儿真的绝，三年翻倍听着夸张，但往回看比特币历史数据也差不多这节奏啊 140万不是吹的，只要机构持续进场、流动性在就行

1.4 million sounds unbelievable, but upon closer inspection, it really makes sense—the scarcity is right there. Institutions have truly entered the market; this wave is different. Ten years to multiply by 13; just to be safe, I only believe in a 5x increase. Basically, it's a bet on global digitalization; if you get it right, you eat well. I respect this logic; it's much more reliable than those pump-and-dump coins. Once just bragging, now it’s about calculations... feels a bit different. Compound interest is indeed terrifying; as long as time is enough, it works. The Federal Reserve's money-printing machine turns, and BTC is the best answer.
