How Far Can Bitcoin Rise?

How to view the potential of Bitcoin?

Bitcoin started a stunning rebound after hitting a low of about $16,000 in November 2022, and in 2025, its price broke through the $100,000 mark, triggering widespread discussions in the market about its future trend. Despite frequent market fluctuations, many analysts still have a positive outlook on the long-term potential of Bitcoin, believing that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Institutional Investment and Global Liquidity

Unchained’s Market Research Director Joe Burnett recently publicly stated on Cointelegraph’s Chain Reaction program that he predicts Bitcoin has the potential to reach $250,000 by 2025, or even higher. This optimistic forecast is not groundless, but based on several key factors, namely:

• Expansion of global M2 money supply
• VIX panic index hits historical highs
• Improvement in macroeconomic conditions

Burnett believes that when global liquidity begins to rise, Bitcoin often becomes one of the most attractive assets in the market. He describes Bitcoin as the fastest horse, and when funds flow into risk assets, Bitcoin’s rebound speed often surpasses that of traditional financial markets.

Procurement attacks and national competition

The rise of institutional investment is undoubtedly one of the important driving forces behind the price of Bitcoin. Companies like MicroStrategy not only hold a large amount of Bitcoin, but even choose to borrow US dollars to make more purchases. This speculative attack not only reduces the liquid supply in the market, but also gradually raises its price bottom. Burnett further predicts that in the future, competition at the national level will emerge, not only from companies. The recent executive order from the United States shows its intention to establish a national strategic Bitcoin reserve, and Senator Cynthia Lummis has even proposed legislation to encourage the government to purchase Bitcoin as a reserve asset. This global sovereign Bitcoin competition may further drive price trends.

How high can the future price go?

In terms of future price predictions, Burnett is quite bullish on Bitcoin, expecting it to reach $1 million by 2030 or even higher. He points out that as Bitcoin’s market value approaches that of gold, theoretically its price should surpass the million-dollar mark. ARK Invest, led by Cathie Wood, has also made similar predictions, even suggesting that in a bullish scenario, Bitcoin has the potential to reach $1.5 to $2.4 million. However, these predictions are not without risks. Market fluctuations, global economic uncertainty, and changes in regulatory policies could all affect Bitcoin’s price trends. Nevertheless, from the expansion of institutional investment to national strategic reserve plans, Bitcoin is undoubtedly moving towards a larger-scale asset.

Summary

Although market fluctuations are difficult to predict, with the improvement of global liquidity, the expansion of institutional investment, and the gradual acceptance of Bitcoin by sovereign countries, we may have only seen the beginning of the potential of Bitcoin. Whether Bitcoin can truly reach $250,000 or even a million in the next few years will depend on the global economic landscape and market acceptance. However, it is certain that Bitcoin’s position as digital gold is gradually solidifying, and its future development space remains quite extensive.
