Raoul Pal, the co-founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Real Vision Group, has predicted that the global crypto market will reach a market capitalization of $100 trillion. The financial expert has maintained a strong bullish position for the future of the industry, outlining several reasons why he believes the market will jump 44X from its current market capitalization.
Crypto Market To Hit $100 Trillion Market Cap
In a recent YouTube interview on the Blockworks Macro channel, Pal predicted that the total market capitalization of the crypto industry could jump from $2.5 trillion to $100 trillion in less than a decade. The financial expert disclosed that if the market maintains a steady growth rate and continues to evolve at a rapid pace, then it could see its market capitalization surging by up to 44X.
In an earlier post on X (formerly Twitter), Pal disclosed that assets like cryptocurrency and technology perform extremely well during secular trends based on adoption. He highlighted that this growth rate was twice the speed of the internet’s adoption when comparing active wallets and IP addresses.
The analyst has based his $100 trillion crypto market capitalization on the rate of adoption of the crypto industry, highlighting that the increasing number of cryptocurrency users will have a massive impact on the market’s value. Additionally, in the interview, Pal advised against taking unnecessary investment risks when engaging in cryptocurrencies.
He disclosed that the goal should be to maximize investment opportunities without getting caught up in tribal or philosophical debates. He emphasized that with the cryptocurrency market potentially reaching a $100 trillion market capitalization, it’s unnecessary to take excessive investment risks. Instead, investors should balance risk and opportunity, utilizing the right portfolio management strategies to effectively capture the majority of the market gains.
Market Liquidity May Continue Into 2025
During the YouTube interview, Pal forecasted that the current market liquidity cycle could extend into 2025. The Real Vision CEO disclosed that since 2008, there has been a notable cyclicality in global liquidity. Diving into the nuances of what he calls “The Everything Code,” Pal revealed that the current market cycle is significantly driven by the growth of market assets such as stocks, cryptocurrency and technology.
He noted that the market was shifting towards a “Macro Summer,” marked by liquidity growth and often associated with the “Banana Zone.” According to Pal, the banana zone is a period of significant upward price movements where market indicators turn bullish signaling the start of a new bull run.
The financial expert emphasized that the global liquidity cycle tends to have a predictable pattern which influences economic activities. He highlighted several factors that could also impact the cryptocurrency market cycle including the upcoming US Presidential elections and a potential rate cut by the Federal Reserve.
