Bitcoin's Future: VanEck Analyst Predicts 423% Surge to $180,000 by 2025
Matthew Sigel, head of digital assets research at VanEck, recently articulated an ambitious projection for Bitcoin's price, forecasting a rise to $180,000 by the latter half of 2025.
His target is derived from a comprehensive analysis of Bitcoin's historical cycles.
However, Sigel emphasizes that Bitcoin must navigate a period of macroeconomic uncertainty before achieving this ambitious milestone.
He noted a significant rise in interest from traditional asset managers, particularly concerning Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), citing a remarkable 300% increase in inquiries from investment advisers.
With a shifting political landscape, he believes this renewed interest supports a more favorable discussion around Bitcoin investments.
Looking further ahead, Sigel presents a long-term perspective, comparing Bitcoin’s potential to that of gold.
He suggests that if Bitcoin captures 50% of the speculative segment of the gold market, its price could skyrocket to around $450,000 per coin.
Currently, Bitcoin is trading at approximately $83,900.
Sigel’s insights highlight the growing acceptance and potential of Bitcoin as a major investment asset within the financial landscape.
