8 Bold Crypto Predictions for 2025 by Bitwise President

As optimism grows for Bitcoin and altcoins in 2025, Ryan Rasmussen, President of Bitwise Research, has shared his bold forecasts for the year.

In a recent post, Rasmussen laid out his expectations for key cryptocurrencies and broader market trends.

He predicted that Bitcoin could reach $200,000, Ethereum $7,000, and Solana $750 in 2025. Additionally, he believes spot Bitcoin ETFs will continue to thrive, with ETF inflows surpassing their previous peak from 2024.

Rasmussen also forecasted an acceleration in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency adoption, projecting that Bitcoin’s market cap will surpass gold’s $18 trillion valuation by 2029. Highlighting the growing integration of crypto into traditional finance, he expects significant developments in 2025, including:

1. Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs driving record inflows.
2. Coinbase (COIN) reaching $700, potentially outpacing Schwab in value.
3. At least five crypto unicorns going public.
4. The rise of AI-powered meme tokens fueling another craze.
5. Doubling the number of countries holding Bitcoin in reserves.
6. Billions flowing into crypto through 401(k) plans.
7. Stablecoins’ assets under management doubling to $400 billion.
8. Tokenized real-world assets exceeding $60 billion in value.

As a bonus prediction, Rasmussen suggested Bitcoin could trade above $1 million by 2029, cementing its dominance over gold as a store of value.

While ambitious, these predictions reflect growing enthusiasm for the integration of cryptocurrencies into mainstream finance and the potential for substantial growth in the years ahead.
