Why $1 Million Bitcoin Is Closer Than You Think

In this episode, Nik breaks down one of the largest Bitcoin transactions in history: the $9 billion sale of 80,000 BTC by a Satoshi-era wallet through Galaxy Digital. Nik explains how the market absorbed this massive transfer without collapsing, what it says about Bitcoin’s maturity, and why this moment signals growing institutional and OG participation. He also explores the math behind Bitcoin’s path to $1 million, projecting how compounding growth between 30 to 50 percent annually could get us there by 2031 to 2033.
