Institutional wave fuels large Bitcoin price forecasts

Bitcoin continues to cause a stir after breaking through the $ 111,000 mark. Some analysts now predict even greater price increases until the end of the quarter.
Shunyet Jan, head of the derivative trade at Bybit, believes that BTC could achieve $ 125,000 by the end of the second quarter, and justifies this with a combination of regulatory advances, institutional interest and broader macroeconomic changes. According to Jan, the inflows in Spot-Bitcoin ETFs strengthen the role of BTC as a mainstream financial system-especially since its inverse relationship with the US dollar positions him as modern protection.
Jan also referred to the recently introduced Genius Act and explained that regulatory clarity contributed to building the infrastructure required for long -term acceptance.
While Bitcoin is clear, Jan was less optimistic about the short -term potential of old coins and warned that increased interest rates and global uncertainties could limit the profits of smaller assets.
Other voices in the industry are even more optimistic. The analyst Scott Melker expects BTC to achieve a value of $ 250,000 by the end of 2025, and justifies this with the lower volatility and the growing connections to the traditional financial world.
The CEO of Blockstream, Adam Back, has even brought a much more dramatic goal of $ 500,000 to $ 1 million into play and argues that the current prices are still behind the level of actual acceptance and demand.
Standard Chartered and Bernstein have given both forecasts of $ 200,000 or more for the next few years, which indicates that large financial institutions agree to a long -term optimistic forecast.
Despite a slight decline to around $ 107,200-triggered by the market turbulence after the threat of President Trump to raise high tariffs to EU imports-the mood with regard to the development of Bitcoin is largely positive. The general consensus? This rally could still be put in its infancy.
