Due to unpredictable behavior in the cryptocurrency market, experts are forced to make the most unexpected predictions about the future of digital assets. Nowadays, the cryptocurrency market is on the verge of a new supercycle, Quantum Fintech Group founder Harry Yeh noted. It could lead to BTC skyrocketing to $400,000. According to Harry Yeh, the hawkish Federal Reserve and widespread adoption of stablecoins, digital coins whose value is tied to tangible assets, could trigger a new cycle.
Less optimistic crypto experts suggest bitcoin and the global digital asset market will enter a prolonged downtrend. So, bitcoin risks collapsing to $20,000, and market capitalization plunging to $830–$900 billion.
