Is This the Setup for “The Big Short”? Why Bitcoin Could Surge Past \$110,000 in 2025
Some of the sharpest minds in finance are beginning to draw their lines — and Bitcoin could emerge as one of the biggest beneficiaries.
Market strategist Miya has put forward a striking outlook: she believes Bitcoin could hit \$110,000 by the end of the year. Her reasoning? A combination of economic uncertainty, fading confidence in traditional markets, and an accelerating shift toward digital assets as a form of protection.
Bitcoin Rises as Stocks Slip?
In her latest research, titled *The Big Short Against Retail*, Miya outlines a scenario in which equities face a rough summer, with the S\&P 500 potentially dropping to 4,700. Meanwhile, Bitcoin could thrive. According to her, a market correction could push both institutions and everyday investors toward Bitcoin as a safer alternative.
Despite the stock market’s recent winning streak — nine consecutive days in the green — Miya cautions that this momentum is built more on wishful thinking than real fundamentals. She points to inflated optimism, political soundbites, and what she calls a heavy dose of misplaced hope.
Why Bitcoin Could Become the Safe Haven
Miya focuses on key themes from Trump’s campaign — promises of rate cuts, tariffs, and tax relief — and argues that markets have already priced in much of this before anything has been delivered. Traders are betting on a Federal Reserve rate cut in June, and discussions around U.S.-China tariffs are heating up. But Miya suggests the rally isn’t built to last.
She warns that retail investors, who have poured roughly \$57 billion into the market, may be walking straight into a downturn. She calls this overconfidence a “false sense of invincibility” and says a potential slowdown in global trade, especially in shipping, could drag U.S. markets down soon.
If that plays out, Bitcoin might be the asset that people turn to when everything else feels uncertain.
Earnings Might Be Misleading
Miya also questions the recent strong earnings from major tech companies — often referred to as the “Magnificent 7.” In her view, those numbers are distorted and don’t reflect the broader health of the economy. They shouldn’t be taken as signs that the worst is behind us.
In short, while many celebrate a stock market rally, Miya believes the smart move might be looking in the opposite direction — toward Bitcoin.
