Cathie Wood, through her firm Ark Invest, presented the “Big Ideas 2026” report detailing an ambitious Bitcoin prediction for 2030. She projects that the pioneer crypto’s market capitalization will reach $16 trillion, which would place the price per unit at approximately $761,900. Wood maintains that Bitcoin is consolidating as a leading institutional asset class and the quintessential “digital gold.”
This massive growth is based on the increasing adoption of spot Bitcoin ETFs and a 73% rise in holdings by public companies during 2025. Currently, these entities own 12% of the total supply, strengthening Bitcoin’s role as a strategic reserve. Although Ark reduced its expectations for Bitcoin in emerging markets due to the rise of stablecoins, it compensated its valuation following the traditional gold rally, increasing its total addressable market by 37%.
Toward the end of 2030, the market will monitor the consolidation of smart contract networks, which could reach a combined value of $6 trillion. Investors must watch if Bitcoin maintains its 63% annual growth rate and how Layer 1 platforms capture the monetary premium over cash flows. Institutional maturity will be the determining factor in validating whether these projections manage to transform the global financial system.
