On April 2, U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to impose a sweeping 10% tariff on all goods imported into America, in addition to a series of much higher “reciprocal” tariffs on specific countries. Risk assets like stocks and cryptocurrencies plummeted on fears of an abrupt slowdown in the global economy, but the president has now placed a 90-day pause on some of the reciprocal tariffs, which has stabilized the markets.<\/p>\n

Digital products, services, and assets were mostly exempt from the tariffs, which meant cryptocurrencies were fundamentally unaffected. But that didn’t stop them from declining amid the broader turmoil, as investors ditched them in favor of safe havens like cash. Even Bitcoin<\/strong> (BTC<\/a> 0.10%<\/span>)<\/span>, which is the world’s largest cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of $1.6 trillion, tumbled by as much as 10% after April 2.<\/p>\n

Ark Investment Management, which was founded by seasoned tech investor Cathie Wood, thinks Bitcoin could reach a price of $1.48 million by 2030, which implies a potential upside of 1,715%. Tensions between America and its trading partners could persist for the foreseeable future, and since Ark thinks that Bitcoin will be mostly immune to the long-term fallout, it might be a good addition to a traditional investment portfolio. Here’s what investors need to know.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin has delivered spectacular returns over the past decade<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin’s<\/a> true value is very difficult to nail down. It doesn’t produce any revenue or earnings, so it can’t be valued using traditional methods that apply to stocks and other assets. But some investors have compared it to a digital version of gold because of its scarcity and decentralized nature.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin has a total supply of 21 million coins, and that figure can’t be altered by any person, company, or government. The coins are earned through a process called “mining<\/a>,” and a verifiable system of record called the blockchain keeps track of every transaction. Because of these unique qualities, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission<\/a> (SEC) has even approved dozens of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds<\/a> (ETFs), which provide financial advisors and institutional investors with a safe, regulated way to invest in the cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

You might be wondering why anyone would want to invest in a digital version of gold when they can buy real gold. Well, Bitcoin has soared by an eye-popping 35,300% over the past decade alone, crushing every other asset class, including stocks, real estate<\/a>, and gold itself. <\/p>\n

Ark predicts further upside of 1,715% by 2030<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin is trading at a price of $81,500 as of this writing. Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest<\/a> issued a report in 2023 which suggests it could soar to $1.48 million by 2030 based on eight factors, but the following four make the most sense in my opinion:<\/p>\n
