Strive CEO Predicts Bitcoin Could Rise 50% Annually Until 2030

Strive CEO Matt Cole has presented a bullish outlook for Bitcoin, citing potential suppression of U.S. long-term Treasury yields and possible dollar weakness as key factors.

In an interview with blockchain media Bitcoin Magazine, Cole outlined a scenario where Bitcoin could achieve annual returns of around 50% through 2030. He argues that if the Federal Reserve and Treasury ultimately intervene to suppress long-term yields, this could lead to dollar depreciation, stimulating demand for scarce assets like Bitcoin.

Cole's analysis hinges on three key variables: dollar strength, long-term Treasury yields, and Bitcoin's competitive position against gold. He expects the Fed and Treasury will eventually take action to control long-term rates, with dollar value adjustments absorbing policy impacts instead of interest rate shocks.

In this scenario, both nominal bond yields and changes in dollar purchasing power become important investment considerations. Cole believes that as long-term rates remain suppressed, continued dollar weakness could increase the appeal of scarce assets as a hedge against currency devaluation.

He specifically notes Bitcoin may react more sharply than gold during shifts in demand toward scarce assets. Cole suggests Bitcoin could outperform gold in such scenarios, potentially re-evaluating its role as a store of value alongside traditional precious metals.

This outlook focuses on macroeconomic shifts rather than short-term price movements. Cole emphasizes that Bitcoin's long-term growth potential depends on whether the Fed and Treasury implement yield suppression policies and how these affect currency valuations.
