A 300‑billion‑dollar manager has forecast what could become the largest institutional inflow in crypto history. Mark Yusko, CEO of Morgan Creek Capital Management, expects roughly $300 billion to pour into Bitcoin and crypto markets over the next 12 months, driven in part by baby boomers entering via retirement accounts and ETFs.
Mark Yusko believes that within 12 months, $300 billion will flow into the crypto sphere – this is 1% of $30 trillion.
He linked the potential surge to spot Bitcoin ETF approvals in the U.S., which he sees as a key on-ramp for institutional capital previously excluded by custody and regulatory concerns.
He added that such an inflow would exceed $300 billion in institutional capital, dwarfing the total that had entered Bitcoin over its 15-year history at that point.
He also noted that registered investment advisers managing baby boomer capital had already funneled about 10% of that expected flow into crypto through early ETF uptake.
Yusko projects that these flows could expand the global crypto market capitalization to roughly $6 trillion—a near doubling from mid‑2023 levels, though that figure depends on prevailing valuations at the time of measurement.
ETF Launch as Institutional Catalyst
Yusko underscores spot Bitcoin ETFs as the structural driver of such inflows. He asserts they offer institutional investors regulated access and custody solutions sufficient to prompt sizable capital allocations once clear regulatory pathways emerge.
Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas offered a more conservative estimate of billions of inflows—demonstrating that even lower-end projections imply a meaningful shift in demand for digital assets once regulatory clarity arrives.
Taken together, the evidence points toward a possible watershed moment for crypto markets over 2025–2026. Investors and advisors who previously sidestepped digital assets could pivot at scale.
If Yusko’s forecast proves directionally accurate, the next few years may mark a structural reclassification of crypto as a core allocation in institutional portfolios—potentially unlocking hundreds of billions, or even trillions, in new capital.
In just three years I have tripled my tulip/IRA funds.
You too? Isn’t it amazing? Guess it may be better than stocks with a PE of 150 or more?
TULIPS
I pass.

Bitcoin is the bet that politicians and elected officials lie.
They will continue to print money.
The only threat to bitcoin value is if politicians become honest.
Bitcoin ETFs have been out for a while now. They already have $54 B under management. It’s not likely people have missed the boat…but the boat has been loading up for quite a while.
Here is a live tracking site for Bitcoin ETFs.
I’ve never met a boomer that liked crypto.
Now the SEC allows in-kind investments so you won’t trigger a tax event investing in BTC ETFs.
Bitcoin has now been adopted by main stream money that always preached “diversify”. Bitcoin acts as an agent of fluidity, which is always needed in the free market.
The question is when is it too much? Too much liquidity is low rate of return.
I’m a boomer
For the past twelve years it's value has risen by a factor of ten every four years.
Crypto is a speculative investment. Just put a sliver in there that you won’t miss and park it and leave it alone for a long time. As a long term investor i have no problem with that.

Because he’s talking his book.
Five years of bitcoin: 900% gain. 
Crypto is an inflation hedge.
Crypto is simply the bet that a government will continue to spend money it doesn’t have.
It becomes highly speculative, if suddenly politicians and elected officials become honest
