Bitcoin price prediction for 2025

Bitcoin ( BTC ) saw explosive momentum starting in early November. By December 4, the leading cryptocurrency reached a new all-time high — closing above $100,000 for the first time in history. However, in mid-December, the Federal Reserve announced that it would only make two rate cuts in 2025. Both the stock market and the cryptocurrency market saw an immediate pullback — on December 20, as much as $310 billion in value stored in digital assets was erased. Things have improved somewhat since then — BTC has not reclaimed the $100,000 mark as of press time, but it has retraced back to approximately $96,240. Over the course of the last 7 trading days, Bitcoin has seen prices increase by just 0.78% — with year-to-date (YTD) returns standing at 128.02%. BTC price weekly and YTD charts.

Analysts have largely turned bearish on BTC — at least in the short term There’s no denying that an abundance of bearish signals are present — but the fundamental drivers of Bitcoin’s recent upswing are still in place. First, let’s deal with the negatives. Over 33,000 BTC, worth a grand total of roughly $3.23 billion , has been transferred to cryptocurrency exchanges over the past week. Historically, such moves have preceded large-scale liquidations on the part of crypto whales — and while not definitive, this is yet another bearish signal. Renowned cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez recently compiled a shortlist of analyst forecasts — most of which are quite bearish, and predict a drop (albeit a short-term one) to prices between $60,000 and $70,000. #Bitcoin $BTC will CRASH to $60,000!!! At least, that`s what some of the most renowned analysts are saying. Let`s dive in ???????? — Ali (@ali_charts) December 26, 2024 Noted cryptocurrency technical analyst RLinda outlined both a bullish and bearish case — per the analysis provided in a December 25 TradingView post , a consolidation above $99,000 would most likely see BTC prices surge to $104,000.

Bullish signals for BTC are still present Even once we take into account that the ATH price could not hold, BTC has still outperformed 75% of the top 100 crypto assets in a 1-year period. The leading digital asset is currently trading above its 200-day simple moving average, indicating that the uptrend is still in play. At present, the level of support sits at roughly $92,143 — in contrast, a resistance level of $100,188 would have to be breached for a renewed rally. While moves to the downside like the ones seen in the past few weeks are worrying, outsized returns and increasing institutional adoption will most likely win out in the end. In essence, no new bearish catalysts specific to Bitcoin have sprung up — meaning that there is no particular reason to see recent price action as anything but a relatively expected reaction to macroeconomic factors.

Trader Says There Will Be a ‘Tremendous Altcoin Run’ in the Coming Weeks and Months – Here is why

A widely followed crypto analyst is leaning bullish on altcoins as Bitcoin ( BTC ) hovers below the $100,000 psychological level. In a new strategy session, pseudonymous crypto trader Altcoin Sherpa tells his 236,200 followers on the social media platform X that altcoins are due to explode over the coming weeks. According to Sherpa, one catalyst that will drive the altcoin rally is the fact that many of them have been capitulating for a long time. “Coins like [privacy-focused] Oasis (ROSE) chopped around for YEARS and are still consolidating. Hard to think these won’t fully send.” Source: Altcoin Sherpa/X Sherpa further says that the layer-1 blockchain Tron ( TRX ) is another good example of an altcoin that underwent consolidation for years before it skyrocketed recently. “So I expect something extremely strong for the next run here for these shitcoins because of how long they consolidated for. Not saying they’ll necessarily all hit or go past former all-time highs, but let’s see.” The analyst also cites other reasons that fuel his bullish stance, such as Bitcoin’s ( BTC ) dominance level and the macro-environment. “People call me bearish but I’m not bearish at all – I think that we’re going to have an incredible altcoin season in the coming months. This is due to several reasons (seasonality, Bitcoin dominance [at a] high, insane macro + government [environment], etc).” On when to potentially take profits, Sherpa says , “You don’t necessarily have to sell now; I don’t think it’s needed yet. We should have a great time in January/February. But if you mentally prepare yourself now, you will be more willing and able to sell later on, when you’re blinded by greed and insane gains.” Don`t Miss a Beat – Subscribe to get email alerts delivered directly to your inbox Check Price Action Follow us on X , Facebook and Telegram Surf The Daily Hodl Mix Disclaimer: Opinions expressed at The Daily Hodl are not investment advice.
