Predictions: Bitcoin may reach up to $28,000 this year

The latest Bloomberg report reveals that the company expects Bitcoin (BTC) to retest its record-breaking 2017 results, possibly even reaching USD 28 thousand.

The report suggests that COVID-19 has accelerated Bitcoin's maturing as an asset, showing its strength in the face of falling stock. Moreover, it points to a steadily growing appetite of institutional investors, especially Grayscale, or GBTC, which consumes about 25% of new supply.

With half and nearly half of 2020 behind us, we shouldn't wait long to see if Bloomberg's forecasts will come true.
