Coinbase CEO Joins Bulls, Predicts $1 Million BTC Price in Next Market Cycle
- Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong predicts Bitcoin could hit $1 million by 2030
- He cites US regulation, institutional adoption, and BTC’s fixed supply as key drivers
- Armstrong joins other major voices like Jack Dorsey and Cathie Wood in the $1M BTC camp
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong broke from his usual cautious stance with a bold prediction: Bitcoin could hit $1 million by 2030. Speaking on Fox Business, he argued that the current trajectory of the crypto market, combined with deeper structural shifts, makes the case for such a move. Coming from someone known for avoiding exact numbers, the call quickly stirred reactions across the crypto space.
Regulation and Institutional Demand
Armstrong emphasized that stronger US regulation could play a pivotal role in fueling Bitcoin’s rise. He pointed to new frameworks like the GENIUS Act as examples of how a clearer rulebook can boost investor confidence. At the same time, institutional adoption is gathering pace. Michael Saylor’s firm now holds over 639,000 BTC, valued near $72 billion, while Metaplanet owns another 25,000+. Other mainstream players like Fold, backed by Visa and Stripe, are adding Bitcoin rewards products, pushing it further into everyday finance.

Scarcity as the Final Driver
Beyond regulation and adoption, Armstrong highlighted Bitcoin’s hard cap of 21 million coins. With institutions racing to accumulate and no new supply beyond that ceiling, scarcity could become the ultimate fuel for a runaway rally. He’s not alone in this view either—Jack Dorsey, Cathie Wood, and Arthur Hayes have all floated similar six-figure-plus forecasts. Right now, Bitcoin trades just above $112,000, down slightly on the day, but in Armstrong’s eyes, this is still just the beginning of a much bigger cycle.
