Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has projected that Bitcoin could reach $1 million by 2030,
In an Aug. 20 post on X, Armstrong explained that the improved regulatory environment and increasing government adoption are major drivers that would push the top crypto to the historic milestone.
According to him:
“Regulatory clarity is finally emerging, the US government is keeping a BTC reserve, there’s a growing interest for crypto ETFs, among many other factors.
Why Bitcoin is going to $1 million
According to Armstrong, the most significant catalyst for Bitcoin’s next phase of growth is the ongoing effort to clarify crypto regulations.
He pointed out that these defined rules will encourage an influx of institutional capital that has largely remained on the sidelines. Once regulations are finalized, he expects funds and asset managers to raise their Bitcoin allocations far beyond the average 1% share in their portfolios.
He also pointed to the US government’s recent establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve as a turning point for the industry. The measure, paired with the passage of the GENIUS Stablecoin Act and the upcoming Market Structure Bill, signals a more coordinated federal approach to digital assets.
Armstrong argued that these moves would reduce uncertainty for investors and push other G20 countries to adopt similar strategies.
The Coinbase CEO also emphasized that governments are beginning to engage more directly with the crypto sector, though regulatory risks remain.
He believes that national reserves, institutional exposure, and stablecoin legislation will collectively drive greater confidence in Bitcoin as a global financial asset.
Industry experts agree
Armstrong’s forecast aligns with several market experts’ broader bullish narrative around Bitcoin.
Earlier this year, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes forecasted a similar target, citing the systemic shifts in the global financial system as a catalyst that would “bazooka” Bitcoin price.
Meanwhile, DeFi strategist Carmelo Ippolitto explained that these long-term price projections reflect structural developments rather than mere speculation.
According to him, the maturing regulatory frameworks, alongside the formation of sovereign reserve strategies and the expansion of institutional access via ETFs, are factors that reinforce Bitcoin’s potential.
He added:
“BTC at scale is less a speculative bet and more the monetization of digital scarcity as a global reserve asset.”
