Bitcoin market cap could hit $16T by 2030, driven by rising institutional adoption and limited supply.

Ark Invest projects Bitcoin's market capitalization to reach $16 trillion by 2030, fueled by growing institutional adoption across ETFs, corporations, and governments. The firm highlights that U.S. ETFs and public companies now hold about 12% of Bitcoin's total supply, reflecting its shift from a speculative asset to a key portfolio component. With a projected compound annual growth rate of around 63%, Bitcoin's price could exceed $730,000 per coin if supply nears 21 million units. This growth is supported by Bitcoin potentially capturing 40% of gold's market value and broader digital asset market expansion to $28 trillion by decade's end.
