Saylor has projected that bitcoin could reach $13 million per coin by 2045, representing his base-case scenario. He also outlined a bear-case scenario with Bitcoin at $3 million and a bull-case scenario at $49 million within the same timeframe. These predictions are based on varying annual growth rates and potential market adoption levels.
