Bitcoin stands on the cusp of a pivotal moment — its much-anticipated halving event slated for April 2024. This event has captured the attention of investors and analysts alike, with Mike Novogratz, a prominent figure in the crypto investment sphere, voicing his optimistic outlook on Bitcoin’s future.
Novogratz’s insight is notable, especially considering BTC’s recent milestone of breaching the $1 trillion market capitalization and approaching the $55,000 mark.
Galaxy CEO Optimism On Bitcoin
The halving event, characterized by reduced rewards for mining BTC, inherently impacts the asset’s supply dynamics. Novogratz highlighted the role of scarcity in propelling Bitcoin’s value, pointing to the anticipated difficulty increase in mining that could enhance demand against a backdrop of dwindling supply.
This scenario, as outlined by Novogratz, suggests a bullish trajectory for BTC, supported by the fundamental principle that diminishing supply, coupled with sustained demand from Bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), is likely to drive the asset’s price upward in the long run.
Novogratz further concluded by noting that “prices are set on the margin. Supply matters.” Notably, this economic principle means that the last unit determines the price of an asset bought or sold—on the margin.
In the context of BTC and the halving, Galaxy’s CEO emphasizes the importance of supply in price determination. As the halving event reduces the supply of new BTC, even if demand stays constant or increases, the reduced supply will likely push prices up, all else being equal.
2 months to the halving!! Man time flies… I remember celebrating the last one on a zoom with @ToneVays and @woonomic and tons of other $BTC fanatics!!
Mining about to get a whole lot harder …
But ETF demand and less supply gonna drive price.
Always remember, prices…

Bitcoin Bullish Trajectory
Currently, BTC exhibits a bullish performance, trading around $52,235 when writing, with its market capitalization exceeding $1 trillion. The digital asset has seen a nearly 20% increase in value over the past week, maintaining a bullish trend with a 1.3% rise in the past 24 hours.
Such momentum underscores the growing investor confidence in BTC’s market position and its potential for further gains. Meanwhile, Beyond Novogratz, other industry experts have echoed similar sentiments regarding Bitcoin’s potential.
Ki Young Ju, CEO of the analytics platform CryptoQuant, has projected an ambitious target of $112,000 per unit by year’s end. This projection is partly based on the expected impact of Bitcoin spot ETFs on the asset’s market capitalization.
According to Young Ju, inflows from these ETFs could inject an additional $114 billion into Bitcoin’s market cap, a significant boost that could catalyze its value appreciation.
#Bitcoin market has seen $9.5B in spot ETF inflows per month, potentially boosting the realised cap by $114B yearly.
Even with $GBTC outflows, a $76B rise could elevate the realised cap from $451B to $527-565B. JuiceStorm.com/b7iFCIbGVP
