Bitcoin being called digital gold is nothing new, and proponents have long expected the digital asset to replicate the growth of gold. Gold’s market capitalization is currently more than 20 times that of BTC, but the expectation remains that BTC will eventually become the larger asset. This time, it’s Bitcoin advocate Samson Mo who is once again making the comparison and predicting what will happen between the two assets.
Bet that Bitcoin will overtake gold
In his post on X, Samson Mo once again reiterated his support for BTC, but this time Bitcoin maximalists are pitching against gold. According to Mo’s statement, BTC is expected to become “exponential gold,” which speaks to how high the JAN3 CEO expects BTC prices to go.
Moe explained that he gave BTC this title because he expects the digital asset to eventually surpass gold. As mentioned earlier, gold’s market cap is already more than 20 times larger than Bitcoin’s market cap. Cryptocurrencies still have a lot to grow. However, Mo is unfazed by this.
Bitcoin is exponential gold.
Therefore, it will inevitably outperform gold.— Samson Mo (@Excellion) March 8, 2026
Given Bitcoin’s current market cap and the total supply of digital assets, a rise above gold’s $35.5 million market cap would take the BTC price well above $1.6 million. Considering that Bitcoin price is currently hovering around $67,000 at the time of this report, doing this would equate to a 2,500% price increase.
Always bullish on BTC
Samson Mo’s Bitcoin advocacy is not new; his company JAN3, founded in 2022, is focused on expanding access to BTC. Through the company, Mow has been driving further growth and adoption of BTC by making digital assets more accessible to users.
Outside of hiring, the founders are also very bullish on BTC price. Back in January 2026, Mo announced his BTC predictions for this year, sparking a lot of interest. According to his explanation, he expects the BTC price to reach $1.33 million per coin.
Other predictions include at least one country finally issuing Bitcoin bonds and billionaire Elon Musk making a big splash in crypto. Also, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) stock is expected to reach $5,000, and last but not least, BTC is expected to eventually outperform metals such as gold.
