VanEck predicts a groundbreaking 2025 for cryptocurrencies, with Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana reaching new highs.
Their forecast highlights a strong bull run early in the year, followed by corrections, and recovery by year’s end.
VanEck foresees Bitcoin climbing to $180,000, spurred by increasing adoption, including potential state or federal reserves in the U.S. They also anticipate corporations holding over a million BTC by 2025. Despite this growth, market volatility is expected, with mid-year corrections before a late recovery.
Ethereum could surpass $6,000 due to scaling innovations like blob space and rising institutional interest. Meanwhile, Solana might cross $500, driven by its efficiency in DeFi and NFT markets. Other altcoins, such as Sui, are also poised for growth.
AI integration and expanded use of Bitcoin Layer-2 networks could revolutionize blockchain. Additionally, stablecoins are expected to see widespread adoption, with daily transaction volumes reaching $300 billion, reshaping global commerce and cross-border payments.
