On May 6, 2025, Bitcoin could hit $500,000 to $1 million in the current cycle, drawing attention through an interview with Rug Radio. Could this be an accurate prophecy like the last time? Let's analyze in detail.
CZ Predicts Bitcoin Surge
#CZ optimistic that Bitcoin, currently trading around $94,000, could reach $500,000 to $1 million in this cycle. He made a similar prediction: in 2020, he said BTC would drop from $101,000 to $85,000, which happened after 4 years; earlier this year, he posted on X about a $1 million drop to $985,000, as a 'headline from the future.' This view reflects a strong belief in Bitcoin's long-term potential.
Views on Crypto and Technology
CZ criticizes memecoins, calling it an unsustainable trend where 99.99% will fail, only distracting from real crypto progress. In contrast, he values artificial intelligence (AI) and decentralized science (DeSci), predicting that AI will merge with blockchain, while crypto serves as a fundraising tool for global technology. Regarding infrastructure, he believes decentralized exchanges (DEX) will surpass centralized exchanges (CEX), but both complement each other: CEX attracts newcomers, while DEX becomes the main trading trend.
Legal Changes Under Trump
CZ praises the US legal environment under Trump, changing 180 degrees in just 100 days. He notes that friendly policies promote crypto, especially as Trump collaborates with World Liberty Financial (WLF) and prepares to integrate the stablecoin USD1. CZ also revealed that Binance has sought a pardon from the US government after a 4-month jail sentence last year, experiencing severe impacts on mental health due to fear of increased sentences.
The Future of CZ
CZ asserts he will not return to Binance, choosing an advisory role and supporting entrepreneurs. He is increasing political influence, becoming a national crypto advisor for Pakistan and Kyrgyzstan, showing ambitions to expand global influence.
Impact on the Crypto Market
This event brings many signals:
Boosting Bitcoin confidence: The $1 million prediction could push the price (currently $94,000) closer to $100,000, supporting ETFs (which attracted $1.8 billion last week).
Driving innovation: AI-blockchain and DEX could spread to Ethereum ($1,800, soon upgrading to Fusaka) and Solana ($146).
Increasing cash flow: Crypto fund flows reached $3.4 billion last week, and an accumulation forecast of $330 billion into Bitcoin by 2029 (Bernstein) reinforces the trend.
Future Prospects
If CZ's prediction comes true in the next 1-2 years, Bitcoin could reshape the crypto market. Cooperation with WLF and USD1 (a $2 billion deal) also expands the influence of #Binance , although a clear legal framework is needed.
Conclusion: Was CZ Right or Wrong About $1 Million Bitcoin?
CZ predicts Bitcoin will reach $500,000 to $1 million in the current cycle, based on previous forecasting experience. He supports AI, DeSci, and DEX, while praising Trump's policies, although he expresses concerns about corruption from Trump's family's crypto projects. Investors should closely monitor to assess the potential from this prophecy.
Risk Warning: Crypto investments carry high risks due to price volatility and legal uncertainties. Please consider carefully before participating.
