Economist Predicts Bitcoin Could Hit $100,000 in 3 Months
Economist Timothy Peterson has predicted that Bitcoin could surpass $100,000 within the next three months, drawing attention to an intriguing link between Bitcoin’s price and high-yield bonds.
Peterson’s analysis points to the high-yield bond (HYG) index as a key predictor for Bitcoin’s future movements.
He notes that historically, when Bitcoin is undervalued compared to HYG, it often experiences significant price increases in the following months. This correlation has been consistently observed over various time periods.
According to Peterson, the current market conditions are favorable for Bitcoin to potentially reach above $100,000 by the end of the next 90 days. He also suggests that if Bitcoin is overvalued relative to HYG, it could signal a decline in its price, highlighting the predictive power of this financial indicator.

Additionally, Peterson mentioned that Bitcoin’s price might currently be around $80,000 if the Federal Reserve had reduced interest rates, though the cryptocurrency is presently trading at approximately $59,300.
