In a recent development, <\/span>Bitcoin<\/span><\/a> proponent and crypto advisor to El Salvador\u2019s President <\/span>Max Keiser<\/span><\/a> has made a future prediction for the Bitcoin price, joining the ranks of analysts who have made <\/span>bold assertions<\/span><\/a> about the flagship cryptocurrency\u2019s trajectory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In a <\/span>tweet<\/span><\/a> shared on his X (formerly Twitter) platform, Keiser stated that the Bitcoin price will experience an explosive rise to $220,000 in the short term. However, he didn\u2019t specify how soon the crypto token would see <\/span>such a rally<\/span><\/a>. He made this assertion in response to a <\/span>CNBC article<\/span><\/a> about the current decline in the financial market amid economic and inflation concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n In a subsequent <\/span>tweet<\/span><\/a>, Keiser once again reiterated that Bitcoin would rise to $220,000 as he claims that \u201cCentral banks will print a wall of money visible from outer space.\u201d His belief seems to stem from the fact that many will be looking to use Bitcoin as a hedge against rising inflation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n He even <\/span>alluded<\/span><\/a> to the fact that the US dollar was losing its purchasing power \u201cat a very rapid pace.\u201d He gave an instance of how paying $100 for hamburgers years ago looked like a joke, but he had just spent \u201c$84 for a very ordinary hamburger.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n For the longest time, Keiser has been bullish on the foremost cryptocurrency. In 2011, he <\/span>called<\/span><\/a> Bitcoin the \u201ccurrency of the resistance\u201d and the \u201cbiggest story of the decade.\u201d Additionally, he always <\/span>touted a financial collapse<\/span><\/a> as what would spark a massive rally in the Bitcoin price. Then, he stated that Bitcoin\u2019s adoption and price will increase as banks collapse.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Arthur Hayes, the co-founder of BitMEX, also shares similar sentiments with Keiser. He <\/span>recently stated<\/span><\/a> that the government would likely resort to money printing to save the bond market, which could lead to a meteoric rise in Bitcoin\u2019s price and other cryptocurrencies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n There seem to be divergent views on how rising inflation could affect Bitcoin and the crypto market by extension. While people like Keiser and Hayes see rising inflation as bullish for Bitcoin, others like Crypto analyst Nicholas Merten <\/span>believe<\/span><\/a> that inflation could spell more trouble for Bitcoin\u2019s price.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n According to Merten, the <\/span>Federal Reserve<\/span><\/a> needs to keep hiking interest rates to bring down the inflation rate as there is excess money in the system due to the \u201cexcess printing of money.\u201d Meanwhile, Bloomberg analyst Mike McGlone <\/span>warned<\/span><\/a> that the rising interest rates could cause a further decline in the Bitcoin price.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nKeiser Says Bitcoin Price To $220,000<\/h2>\n
