Renowned crypto commentator Aaron Arnold, host of Altcoin Daily, recently sparked a conversation about the potential for a fraction of Bitcoin to transform an individual into a multi-millionaire.
Specifically, Arnold boldly stated in a tweet today that holding 0.001 BTC could make an investor a multi-millionaire in the years to come.
He cited a chart from trillion-dollar asset manager Fidelity, which highlighted Bitcoin’s projected path over the next two decades. The chart depicted a future where Bitcoin’s floor price would gradually rise to around the billion-dollar mark by 2037.
Foundations of the Bold Bitcoin Prediction
Notably, Bitcoin’s price journey has been one of exponential growth amid its scarcity and increasing adoption. The graph visualizes this evolution, aligning historical price trends with two predictive models: the Stock-to-Flow (S2F) model and an S-curve demand model inspired by the adoption of mobile technology.
In its early days, Bitcoin’s price surged from mere cents to thousands of dollars, closely following the projections of the S2F model. This model highlights Bitcoin’s fixed supply and the diminishing flow of new coins into circulation due to halving events.
The S-curve demand model then draws parallels between Bitcoin’s adoption and the widespread uptake of technologies like mobile phones.
In particular, the model cites Metcalfe’s Law, which posits that the value of a network expands exponentially as additional users join.
It is worth noting that the Bitcoin forecast presented by the chart was made several years ago. Interestingly, both models cited in the chart accurately predicted Bitcoin’s current 2025 price, hovering around the $100,000 level.
Bitcoin Price by 2037 and Becoming a “Multi-Millionaire”
Looking ahead, the models suggest even more optimistic futures for Bitcoin. The S2F model anticipates sharp price increases, with projections reaching astronomical levels as high as $1 billion in the 2030s.
Meanwhile, the S-curve model suggests a more conservative trajectory. Yet, it indicates that Bitcoin could be worth over $1 million by the same time. For context, Bitcoin is currently worth $96,000 per coin.
Based on these promising projections, Arnold confidently stated that even 0.001 BTC, worth $96 today, could translate into a significant fortune by 2037.
In the scenario where the $1 billion market price materializes, 0.001 BTC would indeed be worth $1 million. However, it would still be worth $1,000 under the more conservative forecast.
While past performance has shown strong alignment with the models, the authors of the projections stress that past performance does not guarantee future outcomes.
