The price of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) has the potential to skyrocket by 350%, hitting $300,000 in the near future, according to Tether co-founder William Quigley.

What Happened: Quigley expressed his optimistic outlook for Bitcoin in a recent interview with CNBC on Monday. He noted that the upcoming halving event, which historically triggers more significant gains, could be a driving force behind the current bullish trend.

“Bitcoin is maybe the only globally traded asset that I know of whose demand is purely based on sentiment. There is no Bitcoin company, there isn’t a Bitcoin price-earning ratio; it’s just a sentiment-driven token. And what you can say about that, of course, is sentiment has no limits,” Quigley said.

“I’m not predicting this, I’m just saying if you apply historical patterns, it would suggest bitcoin being in excess of $300,000 at the peak of this next bull market.”
