Bitcoin and XRP have had an impressive year in 2024, surpassing both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite indices. XRP increased by 271% over the year, while Bitcoin traded at an average of $94,700.

Predictions for Bitcoin's price in 2025 are quite varied:

- Peter Brandt forecasts a drop to $78,000 due to the "head and shoulders" pattern.

- CoinShares expects a drop to $80,000 but also sees the possibility of reaching $150,000.

- Standard Chartered anticipates $200,000 thanks to the participation of U.S. pension funds.

- Nexo is optimistic about $250,000 due to acceptance from institutional finance.

Despite the potential, investors need to consider carefully before investing in Bitcoin. 📈
