01 💰 Bitcoin to Hit $122,000 in 2024, Predicts Finder’s Latest Survey of Experts
Finder’s latest survey on bitcoin’s (BTC) price involved a unique panel of 31 crypto and fintech experts. The results suggest that BTC could reach a peak of $122,000 in 2024, and then settle at $109,000 by year’s end. Nick Ranga, the senior crypto and forex analyst at Forextraders, attributes the current uptick in BTC’s value to growing institutional engagement. Ranga is among those experts who foresee BTC reaching its zenith once more in 2024, ultimately closing the year around the $100,000 mark per unit.
