Bitcoin to $1.5M? Cathie Wood, Michael Saylor, and Tom Lee Say Institutional FOMO Is Just Beginning

Key Takeaways:

• Bitcoin could reach $1.5 million by 2027, says ARK’s Cathie Wood.
  
• Michael Saylor calls Bitcoin the top treasury asset of the 21st century.
  
• Tom Lee sees BTC hitting $250K if Fed pivots to easing.

In a revealing discussion on Altcoin Daily, three financial powerhouses—Cathie Wood (ARK Invest), Michael Saylor (MicroStrategy), and Tom Lee (Fundstrat)—voiced strikingly bullish outlooks for Bitcoin. They warned that 2025 could be the final year to buy BTC before institutional demand sends prices into the stratosphere.

Cathie Wood reaffirmed ARK Invest’s projection that Bitcoin could hit $1.5 million by 2027. Her rationale is rooted in Bitcoin’s fixed supply and the increasing realization among institutions that Bitcoin is a truly uncorrelated asset. “There are only 21 million Bitcoins—scarcity is built in. Traditional assets are becoming more correlated, while Bitcoin offers diversification,” Wood explained.

Bitcoin Replacing Gold and Stocks as Store of Value

Michael Saylor, who controls over 628,000 BTC via MicroStrategy, said Bitcoin is “demonetizing gold, real estate, and even equities.” Unlike corporations that can’t buy each other’s stock, firms can acquire Bitcoin as a neutral, appreciating treasury asset. He called it “the ultimate shareholder value strategy” and argued that digital scarcity is redefining capital preservation in the 21st century.

Notably, Saylor’s BTC holdings amount to nearly 3% of the total supply, reinforcing his credibility as a long-term bull.

Bitcoin Nears a Liquidity-Driven Breakout

Tom Lee added that mainstream acceptance and steady institutional inflows could fast-track Bitcoin’s ascent. He forecasts $200K to $250K BTC in the near term, especially if the Federal Reserve eases policy. “We’re approaching a liquidity pivot. If the Fed turns dovish, Bitcoin could go parabolic,” Lee stated.

Lee also noted a key psychological shift: Bitcoin is no longer a fringe asset—it’s being bought monthly by traditional finance players.

Bitcoin’s Bargain Phase May Be Ending

With macro tailwinds, fixed supply, and growing corporate adoption, Bitcoin’s current price may soon look like a historic discount. Wood, Saylor, and Lee agree—this could be the last chance before institutional FOMO transforms the landscape entirely.
