How Bitcoin Could Rise To $428,000
Lavish mentioned in an X (formerly Twitter) that Bitcoin would rise to $428,000 when it becomes 1% of the $900 trillion investment assets worldwide. The hedge fund manager made this prediction while revealing that Bitcoin, at its current price, only accounts for 0.15% of the capital in these .

NewsBTC recently reported that digital assets led by BTC have been the best-performing assets in 11 of the last 14 years. Bitcoin is again outperforming these traditional assets with a year-to-date (YTD) gain of over 50%.
