Bitcoin has seen a strong uptick in institutional adoption over recent weeks and months amid the worst economic trends in many decades. Wall Street analysts think that the asset may act as a hedge against the U.S. dollar dropping and other geopolitical and macro trends.
JP Morgan made this much clear when the firm released a commentary on this nascent market. The prominent Wall Street firm commented that Bitcoin could rally multiples higher if it manages to crowd out gold to some extent.

Bitcoin Commentary By JP Morgan Makes Rounds
On Friday and Saturday, a report from JP Morgan made the rounds online. The firm had covered Bitcoin in an extensive research report that highlighted the opportunities in this market.
Dan Tapiero, a co-founder of Gold Bullion International, shared part of the report to his Twitter.
The report says that Bitcoin could “compete more intensively” with gold as an alternative currency in the future given the rise of millennials. The report added that “even a modest crowding out of gold as an ‘alternative’ currency […] would imply doubling or tripling of the bitcoin price from here.”
The report also mentioned that the introduction of CME futures and PayPal supporting crypto-assets will allow other firms to enter this nascent space.
