Fidelity Investments\u2019 global macro director Jurrien Timmer warns that two factors could limit Bitcoin\u2019s (BTC<\/a>) move to the upside for a while.<\/p>\n

Timmer tells<\/a> his 167,000 X followers that Bitcoin\u2019s adoption rate, coupled with high interest rates, could keep the king crypto from soaring beyond the $45,000 range in 2023 and most of 2024.<\/p>\n

The analyst\u2019s price prediction factors in a Bitcoin adoption rate based on the past adoption rate of the internet and the downward pressure of a real interest rate of at least 2%, which is nominal interest with inflation factored in.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s next for Bitcoin? If real rates remain at +2%, and the adoption curve continues to grow in line with internet adoption a few decades ago, then the upside seems somewhat limited for now.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Looking at his chart, Timmer believes Bitcoin\u2019s move to the upside may only be to the $45,616 level towards the end of next year. However, if interest rates come down, his chart suggests Bitcoin could see a high of $96,210 before 2024 comes to a close.<\/p>\n

Based on the two factors,\u00a0Bitcoin is currently overvalued<\/a> and a market correction could bring the king crypto down to $20,933, according to Timmer.<\/p>\n

\u201cBitcoin has been in a holding pattern near $30,000, and continues to trade somewhat ahead of itself, at least based on real rates (the still-negative term premium for bonds is relevant) and network growth.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Timmer also models<\/a> Bitcoin\u2019s price action if it were to follow a typical power curve. The model shows Bitcoin returning to its all-time high of $68,992 in December 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf Bitcoin\u2019s adoption curve continues to grow along the slope of a typical power curve, it could take more than a year to revert to the old highs.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Bitcoin is trading for $26,013 at time of writing, down 7% in the last 24 hours.<\/p>\n
