Exclusive: Michaël Van de Poppe Keeps $300K Bitcoin Target Alive, Says $1M Is Still Possible

Bitcoin is trading around $ 63K after a volatile stretch, with sentiment still mixed across the crypto market. While traders remain cautious following recent corrections, some analysts say the current environment looks more like the end of a downturn than the start of a deeper decline.

In an exclusive interview with Coinpedia, the CIO and Founder of MN Fund, MN Capital, and New Era Finance, Michaël van de Poppe, shared why he thinks Bitcoin’s biggest move may still lie ahead.

Bitcoin Could Go Much Higher Than Expected, If

According to him, Bitcoin has a history of bouncing back strongly after major corrections. He notes that, statistically, Bitcoin often posts gains of 70% to 80% or more within the year following a significant decline, which is why he sees the current period as an important setup for the next move higher.

“I do expect to see that the markets are close to a new all-time high for Bitcoin.”He said.

While many investors remain cautious after Bitcoin’s recent drop, he says historical market behavior suggests the opposite. In his view, the market is much closer to a new all-time high than many participants currently realize.

Why the CLARITY Act Matters

He also highlighted the importance of the upcoming CLARITY Act, which aims to establish clearer rules for digital assets in the United States.

Rather than viewing it as a short-term “sell the news” event, he sees the legislation as a potential catalyst that could help improve market sentiment and support the next stage of the crypto cycle.

“I much rather expect the markets to start turning upwards from here and the bear market to be over,” van de Poppe added. 

According to him, greater regulatory clarity could remove one of the biggest uncertainties hanging over the market and help attract more capital back into the sector.

$300K Bitcoin Still in Play

According to him, Bitcoin’s next major move could be far larger than most investors currently expect.

“I do think that Bitcoin will go higher than most anticipate from here, and that could be $300K, but that could even be $1M,” he said.

He also pointed to gold’s strong performance, arguing that continued momentum in gold could support an even larger Bitcoin bull cycle. While he doesn’t put a specific timeline on a $1 million Bitcoin, he says the possibility cannot be ruled out if adoption, liquidity, and macroeconomic conditions align in the next major market expansion.
