Top Trader Brandt Claims Bitcoin Will Disappoint Younger Investors

As an analyst with over two decades of experience in the financial markets, I can’t help but see the wisdom in Peter Brandt’s words. Having witnessed the meteoric rise and fall of various investments throughout my career, I have learned to approach new opportunities with a healthy dose of skepticism.


Peter Brandt, a well-known figure in commodity trading, has advised novice investors that the chances of Bitcoin making them wealthy are diminishing.

According to a well-known trader, individuals persisting in regarding the primary cryptocurrency as a pathway to “financial success” may find themselves disillusioned instead.

Exponential gains were the norm during Bitcoin’s early days, but this is not the case anymore.

Indeed, as Brandt notes, the charm or excitement associated with this investment opportunity has faded, making it less appealing as a potential route to substantial wealth.

To put it another way, the growth of the cryptocurrency since its low in November 2022 ($15,460) has been relatively small, with a multiplier of approximately 6.4 times. However, during the height of the 2017 bull market, the same cryptocurrency saw a staggering 119-fold increase from its bottom price in January 2015 ($164).

The leading cryptocurrency experienced an impressive rally in November, surging by more than 37%.

It seems that Bitcoin’s recent surge may be slowing down. Reaching a high of $99,645 just nine days back, it has failed to surpass the $100,000 mark so far.

As a crypto investor, I firmly believe that the pioneer of digital currencies, Bitcoin, holds immense potential for expansion.

Mike Novogratz, the CEO of Galaxy Digital, believes it’s possible that Bitcoin could outgrow gold in terms of market capitalization within the next five years.

According to U.Today’s report, well-known investor Tim Draper anticipates that the value of Bitcoin may yet surge up to 30 times its current price.

In the long run, according to Michael Saylor, one of the co-founders of MicroStrategy, Bitcoin could potentially reach an astounding $13 million.
