JPMorgan Sees 10% Annual Bitcoin Returns, Topping Stocks, Bonds and Gold over Next Decade
JPMorgan says Bitcoin could lead its asset forecasts, but it still warns that volatility and unstable correlations limit portfolio use.
- JPMorgan Asset Management included Bitcoin in its Long-Term Capital Market Assumptions report on Tuesday, projecting a 10% annualized return over the next 10 years. This marks the first time the banking group has provided return ranges for the cryptocurrency.
- The firm has a complicated history with Bitcoin, notably CEO Jamie Dimon's 2017 description of the asset as "fraud," a skeptical position he has reiterated with somewhat softer language in recent years.
- Annualized return projections for Bitcoin range from a bear case of-9.7% to a bull case of 17%, contrasting sharply with expected growth of 5.6%–6.6% for bonds and 7.7% for small-cap equities.

- Bitwise previously projected Bitcoin could reach $1.3 million by 2035 with a 28.3% annualized return, and Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan welcomed JPMorgan's inclusion of the asset in its long-term outlook.
