Odaily Planet Daily News: Cryptocurrency analyst and host of the podcast (The Wolf of All Streets) Scott Melker stated that it is 'entirely possible' for Bitcoin (BTC) to rise to $250,000 in 2025. He pointed out that the continued influx of institutional investors and the decline in market volatility are key factors driving the price increase. Scott Melker emphasized that with the participation of traditional financial institutions such as pension funds and ETF issuers, the Bitcoin market is becoming more mature and stable, with Bitcoin's volatility decreasing from being three times that of the S&P 500 index to less than double. Additionally, Scott Melker mentioned that Coinbase's inclusion in the top 50 of the S&P 500 index, as well as companies like Galaxy Digital and eToro advancing their listing plans, along with improvements in the U.S. regulatory environment, all provide strong support for the cryptocurrency market. Although most analysts predict that Bitcoin's peak in this cycle will be between $120,000 and $150,000, Melker believes that considering Bitcoin's previous rise from $3,000 to $69,000 in 2020, it is not impossible for the current price to increase by 2.5 times. Furthermore, Ethereum's recent gains exceeding those of Bitcoin, driving up small-cap tokens, indicate that there is 'new money' flowing into the market rather than merely rotating among existing assets.
