Analyst: Bitcoin is expected to rise 60% to $150,000 by 2025

Cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe predicts that Bitcoin will reach $150,000 by 2025, which would represent a potential 60% upside from current levels. Van de Poppe attributes Bitcoin’s potential upside to macroeconomic factors, including the expansion of the global money supply and challenges facing the U.S. economy. He expects a weaker labor market and a possible recession in 2025, both of which could drive a rapid expansion of the U.S. money supply, and thus Bitcoin’s momentum. However, the road to $150,000 is not all smooth sailing. The analyst predicts that the market will see a correction of about 30% in the first quarter of 2025, after which Bitcoin will stabilize in the $150,000 range, with further upside in the market until 2026.
