Cathie Wood: Capital flight from unstable nations could fuel BTC rally

Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood stated on X that capital flowing out of politically and economically unstable countries could become a new growth driver for the Bitcoin (BTC) and digital asset markets. She noted that while artificial intelligence (AI) is currently capturing the investment market's attention and leading technological innovation, it cannot substitute for the role of a store of value that many people seek. Wood predicted that these funds are likely to flow into the cryptocurrency market, driving new investment demand. She has previously offered a five-year price forecast for Bitcoin, with a base case of $750,000 and a bull case of $1.25 million.
