According to Jan van Eck, CEO of VanEck, institutional interest in Bitcoin is expected to rise. He believes that in a climate of geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty, both gold and BTC will become the most sought-after assets.
While gold is traditionally seen as a safe haven by large institutions, BTC is increasingly being seen as a digital version of the precious metal.
Van Eck emphasized that the financial troubles that the United States may face in 2025 will prompt major players to shift their focus from the dollar to cryptocurrencies.
In 2022, VanEck’s CEO had predicted that Bitcoin would reach $250,000 in the coming years.
