Cathie Wood says institutional bulls will push bitcoin reaching $500k by 2026
Ark Investment Management CEO Cathie Wood says institutional investors support her bullish thesis of bitcoin reaching $500,000 in the next five years.
Speaking Wednesday afternoon during an interview on Barron's, MarketWatch's sister publication, Wood said that if "institutional investors move into bitcoin and allocate 5% of their portfolios," the value of a bitcoin would rise to around $560,000 by 2026, based on current levels, according to ARK's estimates.
The ARK Investment CEO said that the transparency of the bitcoin blockchain network allows users to see that institutional purchases play out almost in real time.
"We can tell it's happening because of on-chain analytics," she said, noting that the unique addresses associated with crypto users of any distributed ledger make it easy to see money change hands.
Wood said that institutions may be convinced to invest in bitcoin because of its low correlation between crypto such as bitcoin and Ether on the Ethereum network and other assets like stocks.
"The correlation is very low," said Wood and if there is a low correlation of returns by investing in crypto "you will be raising returns and lowering risk over time," she said, citing a Cambridge Associates report that made the case for bitcoin as a non-correlated investment. $ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF(BITO.US$ $Coinbase(COIN.US$ $Marathon Digital(MARA.US$ $Canaan(CAN.US$ $Galaxy Digital Holdings Ltd(GLXY.CA$
