Bitcoin Price Prediction 2025: Can BTC Rally to $150K by Mid-Year?

Bitcoin (BTC) reached a new ATH of $107,700 in the 2nd week of December. The current rally is giving bullish vibes for early 2025. 

The Fear and Greed Index has reached 87, indicating significant investor interest. The worldwide crypto market cap is $3.72 trillion, up 1%, with trading volumes up 34% to $211 billion.

Bitcoin’s market capitalization has surpassed $2.11 trillion, with a trading volume of $83 billion, keeping its dominance at 56.46%.

President Donald Trump’s plans to turn the U.S. into a Bitcoin powerhouse are driving excitement in the industry.

If Trump’s proposal for a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve is approved in January, the BTC price might leap to new heights.

This year’s rally has already been driven by the approval of Spot Bitcoin ETFs, and all eyes are now on how 2025 will unfold for Bitcoin.

With new tax policies, regulations, and Bitcoin reserve plans how high can bitcoin go in 2025?

Bitcoin Price Prediction for 2025

Mark Yusko, CEO of Morgan Creek Capital, shared his outlook on Bitcoin’s future in a recent podcast with Thinking Crypto Tony Edwards.

He predicts that Bitcoin’s current fair value of $100,000 will trigger a parabolic surge, potentially pushing its price to $120,000–$150,000 by mid-2025.

Yusko remains confident in Bitcoin’s four-year cycle, which he believes will peak in the first half of 2025.

However, some analysts warn of a “Double Bubble Altseason,” where a massive pump could lead to a sharp correction, similar to the 2017–2018 cycle. In January 2018, many altcoins surged 100x, only to see a 95% crash within a year.

He backed his stance with the events this year, he noted how Spot ETF approvals in January pushed Bitcoin to $74,000 in February followed by some minor corrections immediately after the approval.

This was the time many took an opportunity to buy the dip and with a distributive pattern, Bitcoin saw lower highs and lows in the futures market as well.

Crypto analysts Tommy Mustache and Tim Peterson foresee Bitcoin reaching a price range of $105K to $112K in early 2025, with Peterson relying on his Metcalfe Law model for the projection.

Whereas if all goes well in Q1, the all-time high is expected to climb higher, hitting around $150K–$160K not before mid-2025, while Fibonacci and Elliott Wave analysis indicate slightly higher potential peaks.

By April or May 2025, Bitcoin’s fair value is projected to halt near $100K, driven by reduced leverage and increased investor activity.

Analysts predict a parabolic surge to $150K before a correction occurs, which could see Bitcoin prices drop to nosedive towards $75K.

Having said that, the possible correction will not be as drastic as in previous cycles, where the drops went as low as 50% below the fair value however this time it is a calculated risk.

The predictions are based on historical patterns where New ATHs bring short-term corrections.
