Bernstein Analysts: Crypto Enters Its 'Infinity Age'

[TomPluz]

Pointing out their $200,000 BTC price prediction in 2025, analysts at Bernstein make a good conversation that we are now entering the Infinity Age for the cryptocurrency industry. This means we are now in the point of no return and that cryptocurrency is here to stay for good and will continue to expand globally. We should more and more traditional platforms recognizing cryptocurrency all because they wanted to become a big part of it...and that means we can hear less and less figures calling Bitcoin to be scam and just a fad.

"As we enter the first full week of 2025, analysts at research and brokerage firm Bernstein have set out 10 predictions for the year ahead as crypto enters what they describe as the “Infinity Age.”

"The Infinity Age is "a long period marked by relentless evolution and widespread acceptance, leading to a point where crypto is no longer controversial — just part of the financial system built for the new intelligent age," analysts led by Gautam Chhugani wrote in a note to clients. “Expect less of boom-bust patterns,” he said. “Crypto is now firmly on the radar of corporations, banks and institutions, weaving itself into the very fabric of our financial systems.”

I believe a lot of people in crypto forums have been saying this, that this year has a positive feel to it, and people have also predicted ~ $150k - $200k price for BTC at the peak of this cycle. I know some people like to listen to people called 'analysts' and 'experts', but most of the info they published is already known by most of the community.

 “Crypto is now firmly on the radar of corporations, banks and institutions, weaving itself into the very fabric of our financial systems.”

Coming from these experts, these words are music to our ears; it has finally come to us after a long wait; there was and there's still big resistance, but this resistance is futile, as we all know countries and big companies have adopted cryptocurrency; they have no choice but to join the bandwagon.
Five years from now we can all openly talk about cryptocurrency even to strangers, and we are confident that they are fully aware of what it is.

Well, I hear like they're talking about "Supercycle" like what was popular in the 2021-bullrun ^^

Since understanding the operating mechanism of BTC, I've known that blockchain technology and crypto will continue to exist until we find a better technology to replace it. US acceptance is just a belated confirmation, I think it's just something that triggers a nationwide FOMO wave on a global scale.

Currently, I still think BTC can only create an ATH at $150K-170K in 2025. I haven't seen the possibility of BTC closing a weekly candle at $200K. This price zone could be too high compared to what BTC has shown in previous cycles.

In facts, very often you hear so many positive speech about cryptocurrency from different personalities, organizations and companies, i think many has realized the impact of Bitcoin in the fast charging world of digital possibilities. I observed that some these predictions are ways of support, its show that many has invested or eager to invest on Bitcoin/altcoins, and some uses predictions as way to speak out, and sow more supports

There is nothing wrong is voicing your predictions, but many times people give unrealistic predictions, i know that the future possibilities with BTC is endless, but it will not happen so quickly. Robert Kiyosaki is one personality i think that gives a lot of unrealistic predictions, maybe because he wants to stay in the news.

I always prefer to be on the conservative side but I agree that crypto is now on the radar of more banks and institutions. It's like them already crossing the line that made them cautious about crypto before. It's still concerning how almost every article you see online is positive. It reminds me of the phrase be fearful when others are greedy.

I love it when this analyst or so called 'experts' have this terms for the market. Lol, for us this is just simply a bull run and we all know that this year is going to be big. So what will it be when we goes on a bear market in 2026? Thanos snaps his finger that's why the market lost more than 50% from it's previous high? 

So for me, it doesn't matter what they are going to called or throwing terms around, it is still the bear and bull cycle and it happens every 4 years and then we achieved new all time high, simply as that.

that is what happens when the government gets involved with crypto and by involvement i don’t mean putting restrictions and arresting those who participate with crypto but rather make use of crypto themselves with how the governments are using bitcoin potentially altcoins in the future too this is legitimizing cryptocurrency and solidifying its place in the world so yeah we are at a point of no return

Over the years of the existence of crypto currencies, there have been experts and analysts around the world, knowing of the existence of Bitcoin and crypto currency at large. Since the idea of fully accepting the use of Bitcoin by the US, the dominance increased, while the interest of many brought their directions/interests towards it, and now we see experts talking about the price going higher, no more seeing it as mere bubbles.

The mass adoption of Bitcoin and altcoins as time goes on will bring a total difference to the financial institutions and the world at large.

I don't know why but I have a lingering fear whenever these "analysts" throw out numbers like this. Instead of being bullish, I sometimes take these predictions as a sell signal. I remember people saying Bitcoin would hit $100k a way back, or $1 million, then we enter a bear market, and suddenly it's impossible to break through $50k again. I wonder where those analysts go. Looks like they can say something outrageous to make people fomo and fade into nothing with no consequences at all.

From the looks of the current scenarios happening in the USA, I don't think crypto will be added in the reserves, as they were recently allowed to sell 6.5 Billion worth of BTC (not sure if they sold it already or not) but market has already touched $92k. Point is if they really want to add BTC in their reserves then why did they sold these.

According to the proposal if they approve this, then they won't sell any BTC they have seized till now but they sold this one so I don't think in near future they plan to approve this law. However the prediction from the analysts can be right as BTC do have the potential to hit $150k but $200k look too much to me.

Fear? These are just normal people making predictions that most times have no rationale behind it, i don't see any reason to be scared about anything they say. I just don't react when they throw out numbers like this, i enjoy discussions in forums about BTC price and the future, it is more realistic and many people share their opinion.

What do they really mean about infinity age in terms of price?

Less people will be calling BTC as scam is just what they are saying but  it's always just the same as crypto is here to stay. A new comer in crypto would be more confident to learn about this but the should know that price will still be able to dive deep.

I don't get what this Infinity Age term is. Like I'm aware of Golden age, Silver age, Bronze age etc which occurred during certain periods of modern history, but I've never come across Infinity Age before. Is this some term they just made up?

This 'bitcoin reserve' plan pushed by RFK Jr and Trump is such a joke. It's basically standard at this point for politicians to lie about promises in order to get votes (Trump is just extra good at it).
