Adam Back’s Bold Call: Bitcoin Could Hit $200 Trillion as Inflation Fears Mount

Bitcoin maximalists just got fresh ammunition—Blockstream CEO Adam Back predicts a $200 trillion market cap for BTC as fiat currencies wobble.

Here's why the math might not be as crazy as it sounds.

The Hyper-Bitcoinization Thesis

Back's projection implies Bitcoin swallowing every asset class—gold, equities, real estate—and then some. With central banks printing like it's 2020 forever, the 'hard money' crowd sees an inevitable flip.

Inflation as Rocket Fuel

Every 1% drop in fiat confidence sends another wave into crypto. Pension funds? Now hedging with BTC ETFs. Corporations? Stacking sats on balance sheets. Retail? Still buying memecoins—but progress is progress.

The Catch (There's Always One)

For Bitcoin to hit $200T, it needs 200x growth from here. Possible? Yes. Likely? Ask the 'experts' who missed the last 10 ATHs. Meanwhile, Wall Street will keep selling you inflation-protected bonds—with a 2% 'management fee,' of course.
