Ex-Goldman Sachs executive Raoul Pal has made a bold prediction about the future of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, saying that a chart tracking their growth indicates that they are on track to reach four billion users. In a recent video update, Pal, who is also the CEO of Real Vision, stated that he believes crypto will surpass one billion users by the end of 2025.
Pal’s prediction is based on a model that compares the adoption rate of the internet in its early years to the growth rate of crypto since 2016, when it first reached one million users. According to Pal, crypto has been growing at a rate of 137% per year, compared to the internet’s growth rate of 76% per year during its early years. He believes that by the end of 2025, crypto will have 1.1 billion users.
Looking further ahead, Pal sees even more staggering growth for Bitcoin and crypto, with half of the world’s population adopting them by 2030. He predicts that by that time, there will be four billion users of Bitcoin and crypto worldwide.
While Pal acknowledges that his predictions may not be perfect, he points to the accuracy of the chart he has been using for the past five years as evidence of the potential for massive growth in the crypto space. The implications of such widespread adoption of Bitcoin and crypto are significant, and Pal’s insights are sure to spark further discussion and debate in the cryptocurrency community.
