> The Commodity Discovery Fund founder links his outlook to institutional adoption, currency debasement and growing demand for assets outside the dollar system.

Willem Middelkoop, founder of the Commodity Discovery Fund, targets Bitcoin (BTC) at $1 million by 2030, framing the cryptocurrency as the “fastest horse” in a broader trade built around currency debasement.

Middelkoop, who also wrote “The Big Reset,” links the outlook to institutional adoption and concerns about the future of the dollar system. His framework includes real estate, gold, equities and Bitcoin.

He said central banks are buying gold at a record pace but have not embraced Bitcoin because they cannot control its price, supply or market. Institutional investors, including his own fund, have gained exposure to Bitcoin through exchange-traded funds.

The discussion also covers de-dollarization, demand for U.S. Treasurys and China’s accumulation of gold. Those themes connect Bitcoin’s role in the portfolio to broader concerns about currency debasement and shifting demand for traditional reserve assets.

Middelkoop’s target comes as part of a comparison between Bitcoin and gold. The discussion examines whether Bitcoin’s correction is over and considers a scenario in which the cryptocurrency benefits from the same monetary pressures supporting demand for commodities and precious metals.
