TL;DR
The largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization and arguably the most popular around the globe – Bitcoin (BTC) – has been on a tear since the beginning of 2023. At the start of the year, its price was approximately $16,500 (per CoinGecko), while currently, it is hovering around $34,500.
As such, we asked ChatGPT whether the uptrend could continue next year and whether BTC can emerge as the best-performing crypto asset.
The AI-powered language model estimated that there are several vital factors that could influence such a development, with market adoption being at the top of the list.
“If Bitcoin continues to see increased adoption by individuals, businesses, and institutions, its value could potentially rise, influencing its performance,” ChatGPT stated.
The regulatory environment could also be a vital element. For example, a possible approval of BlackRock’s application to launch a spot BTC ETF could infuse overall enthusiasm in the industry and pump the price of the leading digital asset.
Technological developments, the performance of Bitcoin’s rivals, and market sentiment should also be taken into account.
Last but not least, ChatGPT outlined economic conditions as a crucial factor. Recall that BTC recently surged to almost $36,000 (the highest level in 18 months) after the US Federal Reserve hit the pause button on its interest rate hike policy.
