Swiss CEO Says ‘There Could Be a Global Financial Crisis Within Three to Five Years’ and Comments on What Will Happen to Bitcoin

Bitcoin Swiss CEO Andrej Majcen warned investors that the Bitcoin market no longer behaves as it used to. According to Majcen, the influx of institutional money has rendered the 4-year halving cycles obsolete, and a new major financial crisis may be on the horizon within the next 3-5 years.

Andrej Majcen, CEO of Bitcoin Swiss, a long-established institution in the cryptocurrency world, made critical statements regarding structural changes in the market and the future of the global economy. Majcen argued that Bitcoin has transformed from a speculative asset into a wealth-preserving tool within a fragile global system.

Majcen stated that Bitcoin’s traditional “4-year price cycle” theory has now been broken. He noted that while factors like halving and US elections dominated the price in the past, today the market is driven by much larger forces. With the entry of giants like BlackRock and increased institutional adoption, the Bitcoin market has become far more sensitive to macroeconomic data and geopolitical situations.

Despite the very positive news flow (JPMorgan accepting Bitcoin as collateral, Charles Schwab’s moves, etc.), Majcen attributes the price’s stagnation to “market uncertainties.” He notes that Trump’s tariffs on China, the prolonged US government shutdown, and liquidation events have created a “wait-and-see” policy among investors, delaying a new upward trend.

Painting a pessimistic picture for the global economy, Majcen said that a new financial crisis in the next 3 to 5 years is “not unrealistic.” Arguing that structural issues such as the impact of AI on the workforce and rising white-collar unemployment could trigger this crisis, the CEO believes that Bitcoin would be the fastest recovering asset in such a scenario.

Majcen stated that understanding what money is in today’s world and viewing Bitcoin not just as a medium of exchange but as a tool for intergenerational wealth transfer is critical.
