#Binance founder Changpeng Zhao predicts that Bitcoin can reach a value between $500,000 and $1 million in the current market presentation and that it can generally increase in 5 areas this year when the total crypto market can be entered.
Changpeng "#CZBİNANCE " Zhao, the founder and former CEO of Binance, one of the most influential names in the cryptocurrency world, made quite optimistic predictions for Bitcoin and the general crypto market. Speaking in an interview with Farokh Radio published on Monday, CZ stated that the Bitcoin ($BTC ) price can reach a value between $500,000 and $1 million in the current market presentation. It was also predicted that the total crypto market could increase in 5 product ranges throughout 2025.
According to CZ's statements, Bitcoin, which is currently traded at around $93,900, is known to have reached its all-time high of 108,786 on January 20, 2025. According to CoinGecko rates, the total crypto market cap is currently hovering around $3 professional.
It has been hit before
However, this is not the first time CZ has made a seven-figure Bitcoin prediction. In February 2025, in a post on the X platform, he shared an imaginary future news that Bitcoin “fell” from $1,001,000 to $985,000, indicating a goal of $1 million.
Similarly, CZ made a $100,000 prediction for Bitcoin in 2020, mentioning a hypothetical scenario involving a collapse of $101,000 to $85,000. This prediction eventually came true, and Bitcoin surpassed the $100,000 level for the first time in December 2024.
The combination of meme coins and technologies
Beyond his price predictions, CZ also shares broader information in the crypto space. CZ, who pointed out that meme coins are a source of current bubbles, emphasized that 99.99% of them have diminished and are being distracted from real innovation. He highlighted artificial intelligence (AI) and decentralized science (DeSci) as two areas with long-term potential. CZ, who said that “AI will marry blockchain,” predicted a tighter integration between the two technologies.
CZ also praised the current US administration under US President Donald Trump for being pro-crypto and noted how fast the global environment is moving. “The US is in a 180-degree different place right now than it was 100 days ago,” he said.
On the future of trading, CZ reiterated that he expects decentralized exchanges (DEX) to eventually grow more than centralized exchanges (CEX). However, he said that the framing of CEXs and DEXs as opposites is that they are simply different doors opening up to the world on the same blockchain foundation.
Sharing developments regarding his 4-month prison sentence last year, CZ said that this experience reshaped his characteristics and that he followed health and family above all else. Stating that he has no plans to return as Binance CEO in the future, CZ stated that this chapter has closed and that he is focusing on mentoring new founders.
