$BTC
The maximum expected value of Bitcoin (BTC) is speculative and depends on various models, market conditions, and assumptions. However, here are some notable forecasts from different sources and analysts as of 2025:
1. Institutional and Analyst Predictions
• ARK Invest (Cathie Wood): Predicts BTC could reach $1 million by 2030, driven by institutional adoption, scarcity, and its role as a store of value.
• Fidelity & Standard Chartered: Forecast BTC to hit between $200,000–$300,000 by 2026, assuming increasing global adoption and favorable regulatory frameworks.
2. Stock-to-Flow (S2F) Model
• Developed by PlanB, this model compares Bitcoin’s scarcity to precious metals.
• S2F projected BTC could reach $500,000–$1 million over the next halving cycle (2024–2028), especially if demand continues to grow post-halving.
3. Market Sentiment & Halving Impact
• Historically, BTC rallies after each halving. The April 2024 halving cut miner rewards to 3.125 BTC, reducing new supply.
• Based on past trends, some analysts expect $150,000–$250,000 by late 2025 to 2026 if demand surges.
