<p >Bitcoin has entered a rare historical zone against gold, according to analysis highlighted by Fidelity. The Bitcoin-to-gold ratio has reached levels that have historically preceded major expansion phases for BTC.

<p >Is $1 million Bitcoin inevitable?</p> <p >According to Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan, the path toward a $1M BTC price becomes plausible if Bitcoin captures just a small portion of the global store-of-value market.

The widely discussed Stock-to-Flow model is pointing toward a potential $500,000 Bitcoin cycle average, while institutional adoption continues accelerating through ETFs, corporate treasuries, and sovereign discussions a...
