Bitcoinâs value surpassed the USD$100,000 mark in late 2024. Hereâs what could affect bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the new year.
Bitcoin (BTC) investors have had a bumper 2024, with the oldest and largest cryptocurrency trading above $100,000 (all figures in U.S. dollars) for the first time everâitâs up over 100% year-to-date (as of Dec. 19, 2024).
Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency based on market capitalization, hasnât done too badly eitherâitâs up about 60% in 2024.
Hereâs another staggering statistic: As the table below shows, the total crypto market cap more than doubled, from about $1.6 trillion in January 2024 to $3.31 trillion as of Dec. 19, 2024.
If you remained invested in crypto through the crash of 2022-2023, youâre probably reaping rewards for sticking with it through tough times. Various factors contributed to these gains, of which the biggest and most recent is the re-election of Donald Trumpâwho now supports cryptoâas the next president of the United States.
The crypto market had much going for it in 2024, but what does 2025 hold? Will bitcoinâs price remain above $100,000 in the new year? Is BTC now a bubble? Has crypto peaked for this market cycle? Will ethereum hit new all-time highs in 2025âor will it be knocked out of place by alternatives like solana?
How high (or low) will bitcoin go in 2025?
Bitcoin could keep rising in 2025 âĶ or it could lose half its value. Nobody can predict the markets consistently with perfect accuracy. After all, if we could, investing would be risk-free. So, all predictions should be taken with more than just a pinch of salt.
Having said that, if youâve invested in crypto or are considering it, you probably want to know what the potential upside is. Thereâs no way to know for sure, but hereâs what some well-known researchers and fund managers have to say about the future of crypto.
Among three respected crypto-positive expertsâCathie Wood (CEO of Ark Invest), Jurrien Timmer (director of global macro at Fidelity Investments) and Tom Lee (head of research at FundStrat)âthe outlook on BTC remains bullish, with the expected corrections and crashes along the way, of course. Hereâs what they have to say about the possible short-, medium- and long-term price of bitcoin.
- Tom Lee sees BTC at $250,000 by the end of 2025. Lee was right about BTC touching $100,000 in 2024.
- Cathie Wood sees BTC at $600,000 (base case) or $1.5 million (bull case) by 2030. Wood stated this in January 2024âwhen bitcoin was under $50,000 and the first U.S.-based spot BTC ETF had just been approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). She reiterated this view in mid-November 2024.
- Jurrien Timmer suggests BTC could reach $200,000 to $250,000 in the next five years or so. His valuation model assumes that bitcoinâs market cap will rise to at least a quarter of goldâs.
Factors that could positively (or negatively) affect bitcoin in 2025
Hereâs what to watch for in the new year:
Liquidity in Canada and the U.S.
Looser monetary policy (meaning lower interest rates) is positive for higher BTC prices. While Canada has already significantly cut interest rates, the more important cuts for bitcoin are those by the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed). The Fed started rate cuts in September 2024, with three cuts so far. The latest cut of 25 basis points was on Dec. 19, 2024. If U.S. rates fall further in 2025, the price of BTC could continue to rise.
On the other hand, if inflationary pressures spike in 2025 and rate cuts are halted for a prolonged periodâor if rate cuts are lower and slower than the market expectsâthen the BTC rally could take a breather. This is a real possibility. In its Dec. 19 announcement, the Fed took a more hawkish stance on rates than it had earlier in 2024âwarning that inflation could rise again in 2025.
Trump presidency
Donald Trump ran his presidential election campaign on a crypto-friendly platform. He spoke about enacting crypto-friendly regulation to grow the industry, rather than stifle it. This has been even more pronounced since heâs had pro-crypto Elon Musk at his side. So much so that the Department of Government Efficiency, a proposed advisory body to be led by Musk and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, shortens to DOGEâa well-known memecoin that Musk has publicly supported for years.
While a Trump government may want to support crypto, it will no doubt have to address the rampant illegal activity and scams that plague the space. How they approach this will contribute to the health and the future trajectory of the crypto market.
New SEC chair
One of the worldâs most important regulatory positions for crypto is that of SEC chairperson. Until January 2025, itâs Gary Gensler, who has been tough on alternative coins (a.k.a. altcoins, or all coins apart from bitcoin) because he sees them as securities, and therefore as being regulated under existing securities laws. While this approach, it could be argued, is good for investor protection, it has also stifled innovation in the crypto industry.
Trumpâs SEC chair nominee is Paul Atkinsâa former SEC commissioner with a positive outlook on crypto. The growth of the crypto industry depends a great deal on Atkinsâ regulatory approach to it.
However, itâs one thing to take a position from the sidelines, and a whole other thing to act on it once in power. It remains to be seen what Atkinsâ crypto-friendly stance means in real terms. For example, will he roll back the ongoing lawsuits between the SEC and certain cryptocurrency founders?
ETFs and institutional investors
For bitcoin investors, the big story of 2024 was the approval of the first spot bitcoin ETF in the U.S. This contributed to broader investor and institutional adoption. In 2025âwith a new SEC chairpersonâwe could see more altcoin ETFs or multi-crypto ETFs. This will further help grow crypto as an asset classâeven though bitcoin will likely remain the coin of choice for large asset allocators. (To compare Canadian crypto ETFs, check the MoneySense ETF screener.)
Corporations holding bitcoin
Over the past couple of years, the story of BTC has been dominated by the move from individual holders to corporations and countries. This trend will likely continue into 2025. As of mid-December 2024, bitcoin is held by over 40 publicly traded companies globally, of which 14 are Canadian. If corporations continue to add BTC to their balance sheets, thatâs a bullish sign. The table below breaks down what types of non-individual entities currently hold BTC and how much.
How long will this bitcoin bull market last?
No one knows. But unlike the past few BTC bull marketsâ2013, 2017 and 2021âBTC is not a fringe asset anymore. Itâs survived many near-death experiences and has come back stronger each time. With the launch of bitcoin ETFs in Canada and the U.S., the cryptocurrency is part of mainstream and institutional asset allocation.
So, the questionâgenerally speakingâis not whether BTC is a valid investment. Rather, when is the right time to buy? Although BTC has a lot going for it in 2025, will institutional investors think itâs the right time to enter the market, or will they decide to wait for a correction or crash?
Furthermore, BTC is extremely volatileâwith 30% corrections par for the course, and 80% bear markets every three to four years. Given BTCâs volatility, for most investors, it may not be appropriate as their core investment. Rather, it could be a satellite play in their portfolio, with allocations of 3% to 10%, depending on an investorâs risk appetite.
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are speculative assets. Although they are currently in a multi-year bull market, the tide could always turn against you when you least expect it. So, investors should exercise caution and only consider crypto if it aligns with their financial goals, time horizon and risk profile. As always, invest only as much money as youâre willing to lose.

My psychosis will correct the problem of this world. May all the mentally ill in mental hospitals rejoice this christmas because our psychosis will cause Jesus to heal. The innocent ones are good at switching their butt cuts to affect decisions, so the mentally ill remain insane not knowing how to look and think.

Do you think Shah Rukh Khan's downfall in the 2010s was exaggerated?
Breakdown of the above data:
Total Films: 12
Blockbuster: 1
Super Hit: 1
Hit: 4
Semi Hit: 3
Flop: 2
Disaster. 1
Analysis: He started the decade with a bang (6 back to back hits in just 5 years). Probably due to his very memorable run in the 2000s. Chennai Express became the highest grossing Indian film of all time until it was surpassed by Dhoom 3 later that year. Things went downhill in 2015 with Dilwale, which was a film with a lot of starpower and very little substance. Fan was misfire as fans at the time didn't like the premise. Dear Zindagi was a success but the entire credit cannot be given to SRK, it is more of an Alia Bhatt film. Raees was an odd one out because SRK's character was very different from the typical roles associated with SRK. JHMS flopped because the film's concept and SRK seemed very aged. Zero had a huge budget and audiences didn't connect with the film due to its weak storyline and unique concept.
Conclusion:
SRK's stardom was intact until mid 2010s. After that, his career diminished because he started making movies that deviated from his usual filmography, acting, and the prevailing trends of the industry at the time.
