In the first half of 2025, Bitcoin rose by ~15%, approaching its old high of ~$112,000. Institutional players are actively getting involved: the US president is forming a strategic Bitcoin reserve, and $14.4 billion has appeared in ETF accounts. Over 135 public companies hold BTC. Altcoins still have a chance, especially with the growing interest in DeFi and new ETFs. Ethereum remains undervalued but could rise higher due to staking and corporate demand.
