How a Mere 1% Shift in Retirement Funds Could Send Bitcoin to $175k

A new analysis highlighted by crypto influencer Altcoin Daily makes a powerful case for Bitcoin’s next major rally. According to Bill Miller IV, a mere 1% allocation of the world’s $60 trillion in retirement assets into Bitcoin could increase its price by more than $30,000.

At current levels, $175,000, a gain of over 50% from .

The logic behind this powerful projection rests on the simple math of a supply shock. A $600 billion inflow, which is 1% of the total pool, would not be absorbed proportionally by Bitcoin’s current $2.2 trillion market cap.

Meanwhile, XRP faced renewed pressure after the US Securities and Exchange Commission delayed decisions on several proposed XRP exchange-traded funds, with new deadlines now set for October.

These developments showcase the volatile yet rapidly evolving landscape for digital assets as institutional adoption inches closer. For now, the possibility of even a small portion of global retirement wealth flowing into Bitcoin remains speculative.
