Bitcoin price 2025 target could reach $461K

Bitcoin's (CRYPTO:BTC) price target for the 2025 cycle could start at $175,000 and rise to as high as $461,000, according to market analysis by Danny Marques, a Bitcoin mining industry researcher.

Marques based his forecast on past Bitcoin cycles, examining the post-halving performance of the cryptocurrency.

He pointed to Fibonacci extensions, noting that in previous cycles, Bitcoin reached key Fibonacci levels of 3.618, 2.272, and 1.618.

As per the analysis, the minimum target for Bitcoin in 2025 could be $173,646, with the maximum possibly reaching $461,135.

Marques emphasised that this projection assumes the macroeconomic environment remains stable and does not deteriorate like it did during the 2020 cycle.

The analysis builds on observations from the 2012, 2016, and 2020 cycles, suggesting a similar pattern could occur in the upcoming cycle.

While Marques' target range is based on Fibonacci levels, other analysts have made similar predictions for Bitcoin's 2025 price.

A separate study using exponential decay fit analysis set a minimum target for Bitcoin at $199,998 by Q4 2025, with a more conservative upper range of $288,211.

As Bitcoin's price surpassed $100,000 in December 2024, long-term holders and miners have been less inclined to sell, with miners especially holding onto their BTC.

According to On-Chain College, miners’ net position change has drastically reduced from 41,000 BTC in January 2021 to just 3,700 BTC in December 2024, indicating a shift towards longer-term holding strategies.

Bitcoin’s price remains coiled at higher levels, with immediate targets between $115,000 and $126,500.

Analysts predict continued upward movement as long as Bitcoin maintains prices above $90,200.

“Such breakouts often signal explosive upward moves,” according to analysts.

At the time of reporting, the Bitcoin price was $105,427.
