Bitcoin may reach its historical maximum (or exceed it) with a combination of several factors. Here are the key drivers that may contribute to price growth:
1. Increase in demand from institutional investors
Adoption of Bitcoin by major financial organizations (e.g., BlackRock, Fidelity).
Approval of Bitcoin ETFs (e.g., spot ETFs in the USA) - reduces barriers to investment.
Hedge funds, pension funds, and insurance companies are starting to use Bitcoin as an asset.
2. Limited supply
The issuance of Bitcoins is limited to 21 million coins.
Every 4 years, a halving occurs (the last one being in April 2024), reducing the reward for miners and thereby slowing the issuance of new Bitcoins.
3. Macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions
Inflation and weakening fiat currencies prompt investors to seek alternatives.
Distrust in the traditional banking system (crises, account freezes).
Bitcoin is becoming 'digital gold' - a safe-haven asset.
4. Infrastructure development
Expansion of cryptocurrency exchanges, wallets, and services with user-friendly interfaces.
Integration with banking systems and payment systems.
Simplification of storage and security.
5. Growth in popularity and acceptance
Increase in the number of users and Bitcoin holders.
Adoption of Bitcoin as a payment method or national currency (e.g., El Salvador).
Development of the Lightning Network and other second-layer solutions.
If these factors develop positively, achieving a new historical maximum (above $69,000 recorded in 2021) is quite possible. Analysts' opinions on this matter also vary, but many expect growth by the end of 2025.
