Bernstein sees bitcoin at $300,000 by 2029 on weak dollar, ETF tailwinds
Global investment bank Bernstein kept its forecast that bitcoin could reach $300,000 by 2029, citing concerns over a weaker dollar.

Bernstein also pointed to larger U.S. Treasury bond buybacks, stronger ETF activity and geopolitical developments supporting bitcoin’s narrative.
