At the end of this week, a bullish trend emerged in the bitcoin market, so it makes sense to assess the prospects of the coin and answer the question of what the BTC rate will be in the summer of 2025.
Most members of the crypto community view the market situation positively and predict the continuation of the upward trend. For example, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes believes that the value of bitcoin will steadily rise and cites the chart of the yield change of U.S. Treasury securities as evidence of this hypothesis, indicating that APY is increasing.

According to Michael Lebovitch, manager of the financial firm RIA Advisors, the rise in the yield of securities issued by the U.S. government reflects two trends. It indicates investors' expectations of rising inflation and points to a decline in demand for government bonds. Both phenomena play in favor of BTC, as the digital asset is used to protect savings from depreciation due to rising prices, similar to gold, and as an alternative to traditional investment instruments.
Bill Barhidt, director of the cryptocurrency firm Abra Global, also noted the increase in the money supply worldwide due to accelerated issuance. Historical data shows that the launch of the printing press typically leads to an increase in the stock prices of technology companies and bitcoin, which is considered a high-risk asset.

Considering all the aforementioned factors, it can be confidently assumed that the bitcoin rate will rise. According to Barhidt, by the middle of summer 2025, the value of BTC will reach a new historical peak in the range of $130,000 to $140,000 and then correct. If this forecast comes true, the price of the coin will increase by at least 53% from the current figure of $85,013.
