Zhao says BTC will reach $1M in less than 25 years

Binance founder Zhao Changpeng said at the Bitcoin Asia 2026 event he does not think it will take 25 years for Bitcoin to reach $1 million and expects it to happen much faster. Zhao added that more than price gains are needed, saying Bitcoin needs greater utility, including large-scale payment adoption and a role as a reserve asset for pension funds.
