Bitcoin reaches an all-time high, what will happen to its price in the future? 【Price Prediction Summary】

## Price prediction until the end of 2025

On July 11, the cryptocurrency Bitcoin set a new all-time high for the second consecutive day. As interest in future price movements grows, a summary of price predictions from cryptocurrency-related companies, financial institutions, investment firms, analysts, and influencers has been compiled.

First, regarding the price within 2025, a pessimistic forecast was presented by cryptocurrency analyst Arthur Hayes. He pointed out that due to the liquidity crunch at the U.S. Treasury and the impact of the debt ceiling increase bill, Bitcoin could drop to between $90,000 and $95,000 (approximately ¥13,190,000 to ¥13,920,000) in the short term (until August). However, he expressed an optimistic outlook for after September.

The cryptocurrency trading platform Changelly and the economic information platform Trading Economics are indicating a forecast in the $100,000 range.

The former predicted the average price of Bitcoin in 2025 to be $109,046 (approximately 15.98 million yen), with a range from $105,781 to $110,310. The latter predicts the average price at the end of 2025 to be $107,256 (approximately 15.71 million yen). Additionally, the average price forecast for December by the cryptocurrency payment platform Cryptomus is $105,124 (approximately 15.43 million yen), with a range of $97,378 to $125,870.

The following institutions and platforms predicted a range of $120,000 to $140,000.

• Financial Media Benzinga: Average price $125,027 (approximately ¥18,320,000)
• Financial news media AMBCrypto: Average price $120,011 (approximately ¥17,580,000), range $96,009 to $144,013

However, many bullish forecasts exceeding $150,000 have also been issued.

Jeff Kendrick, the Head of Digital Assets Research at Standard Chartered Bank, predicts that Bitcoin will reach $200,000 (29.35 million yen) by the end of the year. Andre Dragosh, the Head of European Research at the cryptocurrency fund Bitwese, also pointed out the possibility of Bitcoin surpassing $200,000.

The institutions/experts predicting within this range are as follows.

• Investment research firm Bernstein Research: $150,000 to $200,000 (¥22 million to ¥29.35 million) by the end of the year
• Alex Thorn, Head of Research at Galaxy Digital: over $150,000 (22 million yen) in the first half of 2025, and heading towards $185,000 (27.15 million yen) by the end of the year.
• On-chain data analysis CryptoQuant: Assuming a maximum of $160,000 (23,520,000 yen)

Moreover, the bullish outlook is shared by prominent Bitcoin supporter and investor Tim Draper, as well as Robert Kiyosaki, the author of the best-selling "Rich Dad Poor Dad," who predict that the price of Bitcoin will reach $250,000 (approximately 36.69 million yen) by the end of the year.

Additionally, Tom Lee of the investment advisory firm Fundstrat has also made a similar bullish forecast. The prediction platform Metaculus predicts a 70% probability that it will exceed $200,000.

Long-term forecast after 2026

Mr. Kendrick of Standard Chartered Bank mentioned earlier believes that Bitcoin is transitioning into a stable element of global investment portfolios, providing a unique hedge against the challenges faced by traditional finance. He further argues that the expansion of investor access will be a key catalyst for the long-term increase in Bitcoin prices, predicting the prices as follows after 2026.

Bitcoin is expected to reach $300,000 (44.1 million yen) by the end of 2026, $400,000 (58.81 million yen) by the end of 2027, and $500,000 (73.51 million yen) by the end of 2028, maintaining that level until the end of 2029.

Cathy Wood, the CEO of major U.S. hedge fund ARK Invest, predicts in the "Big Ideas 2025" report published in April that Bitcoin (BTC) could reach between $300,000 (44.1 million yen) and $1.5 million (220 million yen) by 2030 under three scenarios.

Moreover, Robert Kiyosaki maintains a bullish stance, predicting that Bitcoin could reach $1 million (147 million yen) by 2030, and claims that downturns present good opportunities to buy more.
