Another Prediction: BTC $250K in 2025 from Fundstrat's Tom Lee

[MrSpasybo]

Well, I looked at the chart of Bitcoin on the monthly time frame, and I saw this one.

At the start of December 2020 from the peak of March 2021, Bitcoin went up a whopping 264.41%. Now I looked at it on the current price of Bitcoin and if you plot it and expect that Bitcoin's price will increase the same amount of percentage this bull run, the price will be somewhere between $245,000-$250,000 which is the prediction of Tom Lee.

Will this happen? Of course, we don't know, but realistically speaking, I don't think that Bitcoin will go up the same percentage as it was in 2020-2021 bull run. I don't see it happening, but it's good to see a prediction coming from a famous person like him even though the chances of it to happen is 50-50.

Yeah, I also think that the rate of BTC price increase will gradually slow down over time, until a market state change occurs. I'm not sure if widespread BTC adoption has been able to change the market state yet, and I'm not confident about the existence of a supercycle right now.

I respect Tom Lee, but I will still keep my expectations for BTC ATH in this cycle at $150K-170K. That will be the price zone where I start to monitor the market more closely and prepare for any reversal signals. If BTC can really reach $250K, we'll have a bigger party ^^

I think that's possible if you check the historical data started from 2013 the price of BTC is around $1,242, that's a 2013 ATH until the next cycle in year 2017 it touch to $19,783 which increase 1,592.83% after that in year 2021 it reach $66,975 that increase around 338%.
If it happens again with a 338% increase, it could reach $226k, but as you can see from the historical price, there is a significant drop in percentage with each cycle. That leads me to believe that $250k is impossible.
Maybe it will be possible in the next cycle.

This is understandable because of Bitcoin's historical pattern, but its not conclusive; there are seen and unseen factors like pandemics or war. If the adoption is at a steady phase with no negative interruption, then Bitcoin will head to $250k this 2025.
Honestly, at the start of the year, I had doubts that Bitcoin would reach $100k, although I'm hopeful but doubts liner in my mind, but it eventually did and I'm very happy with the outcome.

There is no doubt, in my opinion, i think there will always be interruptions on the price because not every investor, trader or holder bought crypto at the same price level, and that is one of the reasons why there will be interruptions on the market price as time progresses.
Based on the market price movements, i think Bitcoin is currently moving to break further records, ,I am looking at new All Time High, at least, $120k before the end of first quarter 2025.

It is certain that any Crypto enthusiasts can make predictions about the future price of BTC, spreading his thoughts on news, social medias and all....
All we need to know is that they are just predictions based on their own thoughts and analysis which most times get to be wrong, and sometimes fortunately stumbles to be right.

Tom Lee's predictions seems real and certain to him based on some factors that he has considered and probably by his analysis of the market trend based on history.

Jeremi Davinci predicted $350k, check link below

We all can predict what price we feel it could get to but it is highly recommended to DYOR and don't get carried away with people's predictions.

From my own thoughts, I feel that BTC will achieve $200k before the year runs out..

[Faisal2202]

This is just another dose of positive prediction that may (or may not) happen to Bitcoin in 2025 which is fast approaching. I am looking forward to a big bull run next year...maybe at the level we have never seen before that can push Bitcoin to the moon and beyond as well as help many alts to also explode. Personally, if Bitcoin can successfully get into the $150K zone I would already be so happy but if this $250K speculation will come true then i would surely be laughing to the bank. Of course, we should be maintaining a cautious attitude to this thing while positively wishing that this can really come true.

Lee is right political support can take BTC to $250k easily, if we add all the promises that Trump made if they come true the price will obviously pump and if we add the BTC strategic reserves especailly in big countries like the USA the price will alone be pumped by this move to $250k.

$250k is not a big target for BTC maybe not in this bull run but in the next one, it will surely make a new ATH more than $250k due to the adoption. Now I begin to think the adoption is so high that BTC will ever follow its bearish abd bullish cycles of 4 year duration!

Bitcoin has recently entered a key phase in its market cycle, according to Tom Lee, co-founder of Fundstrat. In a Nov. 29 interview with Wealthion, Lee suggested that Bitcoin could reach $250,000 within the next 12 months. He explained that the halving event, which reduces the supply of Bitcoin, combined with rising institutional interest, is setting the stage for a price surge. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is priced at $97,343.

Lee believes that Bitcoin's price will follow its historical pattern, with a significant increase in value following the halving cycle. He said current conditions make it "highly probable" that Bitcoin will hit $250,000 next year. One of the factors contributing to this is the shift in the political landscape in the United States, with an incoming government that has shown support for Bitcoin. Lee pointed out that if the U.S. begins to accumulate Bitcoin as part of its strategic reserve, it could lend further legitimacy to the cryptocurrency and boost its price.

If we believe Tom Lee and when bitcoin price will reach $250k, then I think that it will be very lucky moment for all crypto users in cryptocurrency world. But if bitcoin price will reach $150k, then it will be sufficient for me. I also believe that middle of the year bitcoin price will reach $120-$150k in cryptocurrency market. I am also agree with you, because we also believe that 2025 will be crypto year for all crypto users. Because we believe that in this time bitcoin passing a bull run.

I agree, if Bitcoin reaches $150,000 that would be enough for me too, personally I don’t think we will see $250K this year.

Trump’s most important promise to make Bitcoin a US strategic reserve has not happened yet and there is no decision on this matter, yesterday Senator Cynthia Lummis commented on this: “The US Bitcoin Strategy Act requires a majority in the House and Senate before it reaches Trump.”
This means that we may have a long time before a formal decision is made.

Not every bitcoin or crypto analyst were always correct at all times when they make their forecast, it may went entirely wrong in some cases, that is why it is expected of us not to always believe in what we see online or what others are saying, it is far fetched that we see the market cross above $150,000 not to even talk of getting to $250,000 which is almost impossible for these season, as a matter of fact, we can be out of the bullrun season anytime from now, not as some thought it may continue till the end of the year.

If the bullrun is over crypto is in serious trouble 👿.

while it could be true here is hoping that you are totally wrong.

sometimes I look at my stack and want to quit just sell it all. But I am haning in there and hoping for bigger numbers to come this year.

[LogitechMouse]

Their predictions aren't different with ours. We Average Joes can also said that "Bitcoin can go up to $250,000" but nobody cares because it isn't published on different media outlets. These famous people will just make their prediction just based on... on nothing, and then they will post it online and media outlets will make an article off of it. Hilarious, right?

As for the prediction, $250,000 this year seems impossible and unrealistic IMO. I don't think that there's enough money for Bitcoin to push its price to $250,0000. Maybe if the US government will start to buy Bitcoin as part of their strategic reserve plan, then that might push Bitcoin's price, but not up to $250,000. I'll stick with my prediction that the peak of Bitcoin this year will be $120,000-$150,000.

Wot?

I mean, it will only be in trouble for 1-2 years maximum, then it goes sideways for another two years, and then it inevitably goes back up by the next halving.

That is the cycle that I have been seeing for quite some time - disrupted only by COVID-19 in March 2020.

So what you usually see on the charts is some sort of trench followed by something that looks like a staircase.

I think this prediction will not correct. It is not related with reality i think. But it also true that everything is possible in cryptocurrency. But i think not $250k it will be possible near about $150k within 2025. Bitcoin's price now $107k and gradually it increasing i think within this year bitcoin price we will see near about $150k.

Just treat it like you and me, we can make our own predictions right? And it doesn't mean that their predictions will come true as we all know that this is just a wild and educated guess.

We hit $109k as our new all time high, and if we go by this prediction, the price should be more than double with the last all time high. So it might be very difficult to see that happening although we are in the bullish state right now.

His prediction will have the same chances as yours, mine and any other user here in the forum.
I can come up with a prediction saying "Bitcoin will reach $200,000 this year and the reason for it is that I believe that Trump will make Bitcoin a strategic reserve asset of US in his first 100 days since he got inaugurated." blah blah blah.

Just a random number, and a specific reason. That's what these people are doing, and we can do it as well. The only difference is that they're popular enough for their prediction to be posted online and be known while us Average Joes? We can share our prediction online, but only a few people will know about it. Lee's price can be right, or it can be wrong. For me, it's too optimistic, but still, it's possible... or not.

I mean, would you take a prediction from someone who said Bitcoin would be banned back in 2019 seriously? Most of these people make contradictory statements if you look at the whole picture. They don't take their words seriously so you shouldn't either. Their target is newbies or retail investors who are new to the market and susceptible to fomo so they can pump their bags.
