JPMorgan issues first long-term bitcoin return forecast, projecting 10% annually

JPMorgan has issued its first long-term bitcoin return forecast, projecting annualized returns of about 10% over the next 10–15 years. The estimate reflects bitcoin’s potential role as an alternative asset, but the bank cautions that the forecast depends on adoption and remains subject to high volatility and uncertainty. It signals growing institutional efforts to model bitcoin alongside traditional investments, not a guarantee that it will outperform stocks or gold.
