Market Overview & Expert Forecasts
Positive Outlook
Bernstein analysts suggest that the current bull run may extend into 2027, with Bitcoin potentially reaching $200,000 within the next 6–12 months, citing robust regulatory support and institutional tailwinds.
H.C. Wainwright previously projected a target of $225,000 by end-2025, driven by expected ongoing ETF adoption and institutional interest.
Other recent projections anticipate a climb to $135,000 this month and even $150,000 by 2026, fueled by rising institutional holdings (e.g., BlackRock and U.S. government reserves).
Skepticism & Caution
Critics, such as Martin Leinweber, caution against relying on an extended cycle, noting that macroeconomic conditions now play a larger role than traditional four-year halving cycles. He expects a potential peak in the $140,000–$150,000 range later this year.
Some forecasts remain highly speculative—long-term targets like $1 million per BTC are contingent on massive inflows, adoption, and regulatory clarity.
