There has been a long list of $1 million Bitcoin price predictions. It is great way to garner media attention for yourself or your organisation.
Bitcoin Willy Wonka
Stacey Herbert of the Max and Stacey Show fame, first mentioned Bitcoin in 2010 when it was $0.30. This was on their Keiser Report. They were the first to mention Bitcoin on international TV and we were the only ones covering Bitcoin for years.
It was on the Keizer Report that the self anointed High Priest of Bitcoin was “predicting $1 million #Bitcoin when the price was $200”. Willy Wonka went onto cite analysis by Rick Falkvinge, where Bitcoin had been projected to absorb between 1% and 10% of the global forex market. This would imply a price between $100,000 and $1 million per Bitcoin.
Note: Willy Wonka did not give a time frame with his 2013 prediction. Later predictions have included a timeline:
- $2.2 million by 2025
- $1 million by 2040-2042
Saint Michael
Keep in mind this is the Guy who famously stated, "never sell your Bitcoin,". However, in 2026, Strategy changed it’s strategy (like the pun) and authorized the sale of Bitcoin for the first time.
Michael’s Bitcoin predictions:
- made late 2024, Bitcoin is binary by nature, Bitcoin either reaches $1 million or collapses to zero
- made June 2025, $1 million, no more bear markets
- $1 million by 2033
- $1 million by 2045
- $150,000 by the end of 2025 as a stepping stone towards the $1 million by 2029
The Most Powerful Crypto Bro in Washington
co-founded Coinbase in 2012 with Fred Ehrsam. CEO Brian has a policy of keeping the workplace free of political activism. Yet he is very politically active, personally and as CEO:
- One of only two billionaires who gave the maximum personal contribution of $6,600 to JD Vance’s re-election campaign. Fred Ehrsam was the other. J D Vance reportedly holds his BTC with Coinbase
- Coinbase, announced $25 million to the pro-crypto super PAC Fairshake to vote anti-crypto politicians out of Congress (e.g. Elizabeth Warren)
- has criticized the banking industry’s (Jamie Dimon) opposition to the CLARITY Act, framing it as an effort by incumbents to eliminate competition rather than genuine consumer protection
Brian’s Bitcoin predictions:
- made January 2025, Bitcoin reaching multi-million dollar prices
- made August 2025, $1 million by 2030
- made December 2025, $1 million by 2030
- made January 2026, $1 million by 2030

Jack the Bitcoin Legend Bitcoin predictions:

Hal Finney
Wrote an article in 1993 predicting Bitcoin. Was published in Extropy, the magazine of the Extropy Institute, an early cypherpunk–linked organization. Finney was drawing on research by cryptographer David Chaum, who proposed systems for anonymous digital money using cryptographic techniques.
Hal was the first person to receive a Bitcoin transfer.
Hal’s Bitcoin prediction:
- made 2009, BTC could one day be worth over $10 million per coin
This was based on the assumption that Bitcoin became the dominant global currency or a key store of value. Then Bitcoin total market capitalization would need to match the world’s total wealth.
Hal had estimated global wealth to be in the range of $100 trillion to $300 trillion. With Bitcoin’s supply capped at 21 million, dividing these figures results in potential price points of $4.7 million to $14.2 million per BTC.
”I believe this will be the ultimate fate of Bitcoin, it will be the “high-powered money” that serves as a reserve currency for banks that issue their own digital cash. Most Bitcoin transactions will occur between banks, to settle net transfers. Bitcoin transactions will be as rare as… well, as Bitcoin-based purchases are today.” circa 2010
Satoshi’s predictions
”It might make sense just to get some in case it catches on. If enough people think the same way, that
becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.” ✅
“Lost coins only make everyone else's coins worth slightly more. Think of it as a donation to everyone.”. ✅
“Bitcoins have no dividend or potential future dividend, therefore, they are not like a stock. They are more like a collectible or commodity.” ✅
“The heat from your computer is not wasted if you need to heat your home.” ✅
”When someone tries to buy all the world's supply of a scarce asset, the more they buy the higher the price goes.” (Strategy and DATs)
“At first, most users would run network nodes, but as the network grows beyond a certain point, it would be left more and more to specialists with server farms of specialized hardware. A server farm would only need to have one node on the network and the rest of the LAN connects with that one node.” (mining farms)
