Enthusiasts have their say. Those who saw Bitcoin at $100,000 and more, from January 2021 for examplewere perhaps then accused of “too much enthusiasm “. But time has given reason on December 5, when the price of BTC ended up reaching the symbolic 6 figures in dollars. Do the most forecasts bullish (bullish) of 2024 will they also come true in the more or less near future? Here’s a little one best-of.
- Bitcoin has reached the symbolic $100,000, confirming the enthusiastic predictions of some experts.
- Optimistic forecasts project Bitcoin to reach $200,000 by 2025, or even a million dollars by 2030.
Forecasts bullish the most realistic (modest?) of a Bitcoin at 200,000 dollars
Even before the 100 000 dollars par bitcoin been surpassed for good, many analysts and financial experts were already considering the question this year: what will be the next price target of the king of cryptocurrencies.
From February 2024, the veteran trader Peter Brandt thus considered that Bitcoin would reach a new ATH (historic high) included in a range “ between 120,000 and 200,000 dollars around the months of August and September 2025 » (quite a precision prediction for dates!).
In June 2024, these are the experts of the famous broker Bernstein which raised their summit forecast for Bitcoin from $150,000 to $200,000 in 2025. And to give a final example of these modest bulls, let us cite the BTC crypto-miner CleanSparkwho also sees Bitcoin “peaks near $200,000” before the end of 2025/beginning of 2026.
A BTC worth a million dollars, or even several million: they firmly believe in it!
Let’s now move on to the most (exaggeratedly?) bulls. enthusiastic for the leader in crypto-assets. As we will see, it is a bit ” no limit » for some. But first let’s start with the President-elect of the United States, Donald Trump.
His victory in the American presidential election (last November 6) and his future administration pro-crypto have undoubtedly already helped Bitcoin cross $100,000. But the 45e and soon 47e US president had also made more than encouraging statements on BTC. During the Bitcoin Conference 2024 last July, Donald Trump estimated that the valuation of BTC “would exceed that of gold”. For this to be the case, the value of the king of cryptos would have to be approximately multiplied by 7or a bitcoin at 700 000 dollars.
Let’s then move on to Cathie Woodthe founder and CEO of the funds ARK Invest. The one who knew how to include Bitcoin in her investment strategies from 2015 is always too trusting on the future of Satoshi Nakamoto’s invention. From 2023, and several times in 2024, Cathie Wood has repeated his vision of a $1 million bitcoin on the horizon 2030.
Let’s finish this anthology bullish by one of the biggest Bitcoin enthusiasts on the planet: Michael Saylorthe founder and president of MicroStrategy. While his business now owns over 2% of the total Bitcoin supply (423,650 BTC out of the 21 million that will exist), Michael Saylor has not stopped making ultra-optimistic statements on the king of cryptos throughout the year. The billionaire has, for example, repeated several times that he sees Bitcoin at $13 million per unit by 2045.
