Venture capitalist Tim Draper has doubled down on his Bitcoin price prediction of $250,000 by the end of this year or early next year. However, the billionaire explained why he expects the price of the king crypto (BTC) to soar past his estimate.

Draper explained: “Women control about 80% of retail spending and retailers haven’t yet realized that they can save 2%, and they usually run on very thin margins so that might be like double their profits. They can save 2% just by accepting bitcoin instead of taking a bank-issued credit card. And that can change everything.

"All of a sudden. All the women will have Bitcoin wallets and they will be buying things with bitcoin and you are going to see a bitcoin price that will just go right through my $250,000 estimate."
