PANews January 1 news, according to CNBC, Carol Alexander, a professor of finance at the University of Sussex in the UK, believes that it is possible for Bitcoin to reach $200,000 by 2025. Carol Alexander stated, "I am more optimistic about 2025 than ever before, and Bitcoin's price could easily reach $200,000, but there are no signs of reduced volatility." Alexander believes that supportive regulation in the U.S. will drive the development of Bitcoin; however, the lack of regulation in cryptocurrency exchanges will continue to lead to volatility, as high-leverage trading causes price fluctuations. It is reported that Carol Alexander has accurately predicted Bitcoin's price multiple times. Last year, she predicted that Bitcoin would reach $100,000 in 2024, and that indeed happened.
