Galaxy Digital Founder Michael Novogratz Expects Bitcoin to Surge at $20,000 level by 2021

CEO of Galaxy Digital and bitcoin bull billionaire believes that the bitcoin surge is just the beginning and there are many records for the leading digital currency to achieve in the future. Bitcoin has recently crossed its $6,000 level; an analyst says bitcoin might notice another growth in coming days.

At the SALT Conference, held at Las Vegas, Michael Novogratz spoke to CNN stating Bitcoin has broken its previous record, and within next 18 months, it will reach another milestone. As of now, Bitcoin is at $6,000; the next aim is to reach $10,000 level. Apparently, $6,000 level is a stall point, and will be delighted to see Bitcoin crossing $10,000 mark within the end of 2019, he stated.

Simultaneously during the interview process, he addressed that other cryptocurrencies are not going to notice an upward trend at any point shortly.  Adding further said,

“The other coins, Ethereum being the next biggest, Ripple….they have to prove the used case, right?”

This means that we should get more people within the crypto community and even bring programmers and developers as they are excellent at a specific thing.

Just because altcoins are cryptocurrencies, it’s not easy for them to recover and hence altcoins need to prove their benefits. He even mentioned that out of 118 elements listed on the periodic table, only ‘gold’ has a store of value.  Earlier, in February he claimed that Bitcoin has a special place within the crypto market and it will be the next digital gold.

Novogratz responded to Binance hack- the worst hack of the crypto exchange, and why it has not affected the Bitcoin price, he said debating to this, that in bull markets, it easy for the markets to accept negative news and we live in a bull market.

Galaxy Digital CEO later said there are various components that we use, for example, copper, and this component has a specific value, and it’s due to its usability. Every element big or small needs to prove to get appreciated; altcoins do need to prove their use to get adopted by crypto users.

Moreover, the bitcoin upward trend seems to continue for some more time and analyst are hopeful of Bitcoin reaching $20,000 resistance level within 2 years from now.

Speaking on the Binance hack, Novogratz wants regulators to take some action and said:

“We think all the exchanges should go to a process where they almost self regulate, right? They do what the regulators want beforehand.”
