Global demographic shifts and rising wealth could drive cryptocurrency adoption and asset demand until 2100, according to a report by the US Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. The report projects a 200% increase in asset demand between 2024 and 2100 due to an aging population with more capital to invest.

Cryptocurrency exchange Bitget CEO Gracy Chen predicts that in the next 75 years, Bitcoin could be valued like gold by the aging population. Growing regulatory clarity and institutional products may make Bitcoin more attractive to older investors, with 34% of global cryptocurrency holders aged 24 to 35.
