Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan argues that Bitcoin’s long-term case does not depend on one economic outcome. He sees three different paths that could support the asset, while allowing for steep declines along the way. One path is money and credit growing faster than the real economy. In Hougan’s framework, recession-driven liquidity or persistent inflation could weaken purchasing power and favor Bitcoin’s fixed supply, capped at 21 million coins. A second path depends on genuine productivity growth, including gains from artificial intelligence.
