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

[erus]

The value of 250,000 dollars could be realized but my assumption is that the value is very large because now Bitcoin is at a price of 97,200 dollars. We can multiply it by 1x or a 100% increase and the result is 184,400 dollars and it definitely requires a very large market cap too.

I don't really understand where Tomy Lee's reference came from so that he has a Bitcoin price target of around 250,000 dollars. I am also sure that Tomy Lee has a fitting and valid reason according to himself because I am sure that smart and famous people like Tomy Lee must have many friends who have experience reading about Bitcoin technology in the future so that the price range is 250,000 dollars.

I hope no newbies fall for this wild prediction but something in me says I hope they do I mean it will be great to see that but on 2025? It will be more realistic if we're talking about the next halving. It looks to me that he's just throwing numbers there but many of us would be extremely happy if he will be correct on this one though.

Wild prediction why?

20 mill x 100 k is 2 trillion

20 mill x 250 k is 5 trillion

the gain is possible to do in 2025.

So I don't think the prediction is wild.

we entered 2021 at 28k and got as high as 68k almost a 1 trillion gain in 2021.

tack on inflation to match it we need a gain of 1.2 trillion so we would be 2+1.2 = 3.2 billion divide by 20 mill and that is 160k a coin.

but that is matching market cap gain.

I think we do 160-300k in 2025

I don't see Bitcoin touching $160 to 300k in 2025, and anybody can come up with a figure because they might have have invested and desires to speculate prices over times to boost their profits, probably on the short term.
However, your calculations look good, but looking at bitcoin price in 2025, i am considering market prices economically than looking at it mathematically. Bitcoin has the capacity to create new records bigger than the previous hight, however i am forecasting bitcoiners to touch $155k if demands continues consistently at short intervals in 2025.

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

Yeah, that is the thing with cryptocurrency, we may think that a certain price is unachievable, but it then turns out to be. I know that people just like to predict without any valid reason, they just pick numbers and put it out there, but sometimes it may turn out to be correct. Which bitcoiner wouldn't want BTC to go this high, but if it will happen is another thing.

well some people do put out unrealistic numbers out there because they do not do any kinds of market analysis just pure speculation and vibes or rather their prediction is what they hope will happen in real life

Which bitcoiner wouldn't want BTC to go this high, but if it will happen is another thing.

why not? almost everyone i know do want bitcoin to go to the moon as they say many profit taking opportunities when this does happen

Tom Lee, he seems to be out of the limelight for quite some time?

I still remember him during the previous bull runs wherein he also put up big predictions and I can't remember if it is a hit or missed though. But in any case, I doubt that he will simply go away and shy away from his predictions, after all we all know that as a Fundstrat he is a well known bull, not just in crypto, but in S&P and stocks as well. So no surprise that he will come up with this kind of predictions on crypto market.

Fiber are not going to be too forward about the bitcoin notice for this year, it is better that we maintain having the expectation of the market crossing not more than $150,000 between now and the end of the year, it is of another great advantage for some investors who have seen this already coming to invest in the market before it rises to all time high as it has started already, but I don't think expecting up to $250,000 is a good idea to follow.

People need to understand that these predictions made from some famous people are mere speculations and not based on analysis or anything and they are mostly tactics to gain attention from the public because they know Bitcoin is a hot topic at the moment and they are going to become a headline if they either make a positive or a negative speculation about it.

We need to trust on more realistic predictions people make even if they are not coming from very famous or influential people but they are at least good and we can think that those are possible feats to achieve. Someone comes out of nowhere who have possibly never read a chart in his life and says that Bitcoin is going to hit $1m in this bull run is nothing but a attention seeker.

Who would believe the man who once said that BTC will be banned in the US just because they banned some types of cigarettes or something similar? It's hard to find someone who has made more false speculations over the years than this man. I have personally never seen or heard of a man more lost and confused than him when it comes to cryptocurrencies.

Yeah, I think that some of these confused guys who were very critical on Cryptocurrency in the past are coming back to consciousness; they have realized the impact cryptocurrency is making on the economy, and having purchased some amount of Bitcoin, they are now becoming the campaigners of a bullish momentum.
However, this prediction is a personal ideas, i think it is part of market speculations. I think that Bitcoin may be traded between $125k to $155k price level this year in my opinion

[trendcoin]

The halving event reducing the supply of Bitcoin, combined with growing institutional interest and the US starting to accumulate Bitcoin as part of its strategic reserve are very important arguments. It's not easy for me to reject them, but markets pre-price certain events as expectations. These events may have already been bought. I think if we are talking about a number or predicting a price, we cannot base the explanation on sociological or historical events. We can do that about the future of Bitcoin or mass adoption, but inherent explanations of numbers don't usually work well...

it is possible

trump's announcement and confirmation that he has not forgotten about what he has promised in his campaign does not change much on the bitcoin's expected price everyone expects or hopes bitcoin to reach $120k to $150k this year some people may start hyping up the bitcoin reserve news and start spreading that bitcoin will now reach $200k but i think realistically $120k to $150k is the peak price we will see this year

bitcoin is very unpredictable so all this can be disproven soon but this is what my opinion is
