The forecast for Bitcoin's price has once again become the focus of discussion among the global financial community.
According to a survey from GFO-X, the average price that investors expect in 2025 is around $150,000.
The lowest forecast comes from the analysis firm 10x Research, which suggests that Bitcoin could reach $122,000, based on current technical indicators.
Meanwhile, the investment firm VanEck predicts that Bitcoin could rise to $180,000 before a downward adjustment.
This forecast is based on the funding plans of institutional investors. Standard Chartered and HC Wainwright are also cautious with target levels of $200,000 and $225,000, respectively.
Institutional capital is the decisive factor
According to BlackRock CEO – Larry Fink, if institutional investors allocate 2–5% of their portfolio to Bitcoin, the price could soar to $700,000.
This is considered one of the most optimistic forecasts currently. Chamath Palihapitiya, a famous investor in Silicon Valley, likens Bitcoin to a "financial escape valve" and sets a target of $500,000.
Meanwhile, Tom Lee (Fundstrat) and Anthony Pompliano both aim for the milestone of $250,000, emphasizing the factors of "abundant liquidity" and "demand shock" in 2025 that will boost this cryptocurrency.
Broad fluctuations are forecasted, the market still expects positively
Some experts provide a more flexible forecast range. Co-founder of 21st Capital – Sina G. believes that Bitcoin could be in the range of $135,000 to $285,000, based on quantitative models.
Although the specific numbers vary, the common point in the forecasts is the expectation of the influx of large capital and the impact from macro factors such as interest rate policy, inflation, and legal regulations.
