Cathie Wood Stands Firm: ARK’s Bitcoin $1.5M Bull Price Still on Track, Markets Prepped for a Wild Ride

by

So, here we are. The markets are gearing up for what could be the biggest plot twist since… well, since they started predicting the end of crypto for the hundredth time. Liquidity is coming back in spades, and thanks to the US government finally coming out of its month-long nap, all eyes are on the market reversal that’s just around the corner.

The cash is flowing back-$70 billion, to be precise-since the government shutdown ended. And don’t get too comfy; $300 billion more is expected to flood in over the next few weeks as the Treasury General Account gets its act together, according to ARK Invest. Talk about a liquid lunch.

But hold on to your hats, because here comes the kicker: on December 1, the US Federal Reserve is supposed to wrap up its “quantitative tightening” program and switch gears to quantitative easing. That means the Fed’s going to start buying bonds, which will hopefully get borrowing costs down and throw a little gasoline on this fire. It’s like the Fed’s got a new toy and they’re ready to play with it. What could go wrong?

“With liquidity returning, quantitative tightening (QT) ending December 1st, and monetary policy turning supportive, we believe conditions are building for markets to potentially reverse recent drawdowns,” ARK wrote in a Wednesday post. In case you’re wondering, that’s finance-speak for “we’re about to see some fireworks.” 🎆

Crypto and AI liquidity squeeze may ease

Cathie Wood, the CEO and mastermind behind ARK Invest, came out swinging on Thursday, declaring that the liquidity squeeze that’s been holding back the cryptocurrency and AI markets is about to ease up. Oh, and she made it clear that Bitcoin‘s price target of $1.5 million in the bull case is still alive and kicking, despite a little drama in the crypto space. 🙄

Back in April, ARK predicted Bitcoin would hit $1.5 million in a “bull case,” and $300,000 in the “bear case.” You know, the kind of numbers that make you question your life choices. And despite the market hiccups and stablecoins trying to steal Bitcoin’s thunder, Wood isn’t budging. The bullish price target? It’s still on. Yep, you heard that right-no change.

Now, Wood did admit that stablecoins are soaking up some of Bitcoin’s spotlight. But let’s be real-gold has been outshining even Bitcoin, so if you’re looking for that “safe-haven” feeling, maybe try some gold bars instead of your regular crypto stash. But the overall vibe? Bullish. 🙃

“So net, our bull price, which most people focus on, really hasn’t changed.”

It’s not just Wood throwing out big predictions-other crypto big shots are jumping on the train too. Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, is betting on a Bitcoin rally to $250,000 if the Fed hits that QE button. Because, of course, the world always needs another Bitcoin rally, right?

Still, there’s a catch. Bitcoin needs to reclaim the $92,000 mark before we get too excited. Until then, it’s like waiting for a movie sequel-you know it’s coming, but you’re not sure if it’ll be as good as the first one.
