Despite the hype of Bitcoin Reserve plans, Bitcoin’s price is still below $100K. But Investors are not losing hope on Bitcoin and on its rising possibilities under Trump’s leadership. Overall the year is bullish for Bitcoin as crypto is getting political support and new policies are meant to boost the industry rather than suppressing it. Analyst and Billionaire Raoul Pal has bigger hopes from Bitcoin this year. Let’s see what his target is for Bitcoin.
The crypto market is buzzing with optimism, and Raoul Pal, CEO of Real Vision, has made some bold predictions in a Podcast with James Connor, Blood Street Capital for Bitcoin in 2025. Drawing from past trends and current market dynamics, Pal believes Bitcoin is gearing up for a strong year, driven by global liquidity and maturing market conditions.
A Familiar Pattern with a Twist
According to Pal, the current market setup feels a lot like 2017 after Trump’s election, where continuous liquidity flow fueled Bitcoin’s growth. However, this time, China might play a bigger role in boosting global liquidity. Despite the ups and downs Bitcoin faced in 2021, Pal thinks the market has matured. The introduction of Bitcoin ETFs and a more stable investor base could prevent drastic corrections. He predicts even if Bitcoin hits $100,000, any pullbacks might be mild, possibly dipping to around $90,000 before rallying again.
Pal’s Possible Scenario’s
Pal laid out three potential scenarios for Bitcoin’s price by the end of 2025. In the worst-case scenario, Bitcoin could reach around $200,000 to $250,000. A more moderate, or “base case,” scenario puts Bitcoin at $350,000. But if the market experiences a blow-off top similar to 2017, Bitcoin could touch the roof shooting past $500,000. Moreover, this positive outlook isn’t just about Bitcoin; Pal is bullish on the entire crypto market.
Altcoins Join the Rally
Apart from Bitcoin, Altcoin’s will also make some noise. Recently, Mike Novogratz, another crypto heavyweight, has changed his stance on altcoins like Cardano and XRP. He admits he was wrong to dismiss them and now sees them as a potential investment option. Solana, in particular, is shining with VanEck predicting it could hit $520 this year after an impressive performance.
Novogratz emphasizes that strong narratives drive enthusiasm in crypto, which in turn creates real value. Even ecosystems he once doubted, like Cardano and XRP, have proven their resilience thanks to dedicated communities and compelling stories.
