During his Monday appearance on CNBC's "Squawk Box," Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/fundstrat/status/1787556166257521142">predicted</a> that the price of Bitcoin is going to hit $150,000 in 2024.&nbsp;&nbsp;
According to Lee, Bitcoin is still early in its current bullish cycle. "The idea that it could get to $150,000 is still within our base case," he said.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The leading cryptocurrency is currently trading just above the $63,000 level after giving up some of its recent gains.&nbsp;
As&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/fundstrats-tom-lee-claims-bitcoin-btc-price-hasnt-topped-yet">reported by U.Today</a>, Lee opined that the market was being fooled by the April turmoil during a recent conversation with American investor Anthony Scaramucci.&nbsp;
Earlier this year, the Fundstrat co-founder also spoke in detail about the transformative impact of Bitcoin ETFs, describing them as a "wonderful development" since they allow people to have exposure to the largest cryptocurrency without the need to store private keys.
Lee believes that the price of Bitcoin could reach $500,000 within the next five years.&nbsp;

A week ago, the price of Bitcoin experienced a dramatic plunge due to stagflation fears triggered by worrying inflation data. The Fudndstrat co-founder, however, is convinced that inflation is going to decline "dramatically" this year in the US.&nbsp;&nbsp;
"I think inflation is going to sorta cool pretty dramatically," Lee said.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Lee cannot precisely predict when this dramatic drop in inflation is going to take place, but he expects this to happen in the second half of 2024.&nbsp;
Lee does not think that the U.S. Federal Reserve is actually comfortable with long-term rates at these levels. He has explained that high rates are putting a lot of pressure on regional banking. "It's hurting their balance sheet. The cost of money is quite high, especially relative to the rest of the world."
