Bitcoin Could Hit $115K by August, Pantera’s Morehead Writes
“Bitcoin is now ahead of our April 2020 forecast schedule – to hit $115K this summer,” wrote Dan Morehead, CEO and co-chief investment officer at Pantera Capital, a blockchain hedge fund, in an emailed newsletter.
The Pantera prediction is based on the stock-to-flow model – an analytical framework that values an asset’s price based on its annual issuance schedule. The model measures the scarcity of bitcoin (BTC), which is governed by the underlying network programming coded into the blockchain’s design when it was launched 12 years ago.
Under that plan, the number of new bitcoin created with each new data block every 10 minutes or so gets cut in half roughly every four years. In theory, according to the stock-to-flow model, the bitcoin price should rise as the issuance rate declines.
Morehead’s predictions carry weight partly because of his prior Wall Street experience: Before founding Pantera in 2003, he served as head of macro trading for the hedge fund Tiger Management, and before that he worked as a trader at Deutsche Bank and Goldman Sachs.

Aptos comes out of nowhere, a new story for public chains in 2022?
Looking at this bullish round of public chain rotation outbreak, the public chain landscape is not yet a foregone conclusion, despite ETH’s first-mover advantage. For example, Solana, which is light on technology and heavy on ecology, uses measures such as introducing liquidity mining, providing subsidies for developers, holding hackathon and providing donation funds to incentivize users to experience their platform, while Polygon, Fantom, Harmony, Avalanche, Celo and NEAR, on the other hand, have taken a different approach and launched incentive programs one after another thus promoting their ecological prosperity.
