Investment Management Company Founder Discusses the Future of Bitcoin (BTC) – What to Expect?

Coatue Management founder Philippe Laffont shared his insights on the future of Bitcoin in an interview at Coinbase’s State of Crypto Summit in New York. Laffont highlighted Bitcoin’s evolving volatility, institutional interest, and its potential as a key asset in investment portfolios.

Despite a 13% increase in Bitcoin’s value in 2025, Laffont noted a significant decrease in its volatility over time. He expressed intrigue at the decreasing beta of Bitcoin, indicating a more stable market performance. The emergence of Bitcoin ETFs by major players like BlackRock signals the asset’s growing maturity and resilience to market fluctuations.

Moreover, the reduced rate of selling coins held in Bitcoin wallets for over a month suggests a shift towards long-term investment strategies, positioning Bitcoin as a store of long-term value. Laffont emphasized the current low share of Bitcoin in global wealth at 0.4%, predicting a steady rise in its significance and value as more investors recognize its utility.
