Max Keiser Predicts New Bitcoin ATH in March
In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin’s price surged from $83,820 to nearly $88,000, marking a 4.6% growth. Overall, BTC has risen by 5.22% since Friday.
At the time of this writing, digital gold is priced at $87,670 per coin. Bitcoin maximalist and advisor to El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, Max Keiser, made a bullish prediction on Sunday, anticipating Bitcoin will reach a new all-time high this month. However, with one week left in March, Bitcoin needs to act fast. The previous peak occurred on January 20, surpassing $109,000.

About a week ago, Keiser reaffirmed his ultra-bullish prediction, claiming that $2,200,000 per BTC is still possible given Bitcoin’s unique structure, which provides resilience against failures. He also speculated that countries like China, Russia, and Iran might consider using a gold-backed stablecoin to avoid reliance on the US dollar, which is losing purchasing power. Keiser concluded by stating, “Bitcoin is deflationary, but volatile.”
