JPmorgan lowers his fair price estimate for Bitcoin in the middle of volatility to USD 38,000 -

The leading investment bank JPMorgan has changed its view of the estimate of the Bitcoin Prize in the long term.

JPMorgan changes long-term Bitcoin price estimate

While JPmorgan was optimistic last year when this number estimated almost $ 150,000, it reduced its estimates due to the situation that the market is experiencing this year.

The new price of $ 38,000, about a quarter of the previously calculated number, was estimated in a different context in terms of gold and bitcoin and the volatility of the market. JPmorgan explained in a note:

Our previous forecast that the volatility ratio from Bitcoin and Gold will later fall to the two that is about two times this year appears unrealistic. Our fair value for Bitcoin, based on a volatility ratio from Bitcoin to gold of about 4x, would be 1/4 of $ 150,000 or $ 38,000

Increased volatility harms institutional acceptance

Another factor that JPMorgan examined is the volatility that Bitcoin and the cryptom market have experienced as a whole. According to the bank, this makes it difficult for institutes to set their bets on Bitcoin for other reasons than a speculative asset.
