Is it possible for the price of BTC to be between $150,000 and $250,000 in 2025?

OPINION

Sebastián Serrano, CEO of Ripio, analyzed the projections for Bitcoin and Ethereum in 2025, and how the growth of cryptocurrencies could transform the crypto ecosystem in a bull market context. He shared this information with Cointelegraph in Spanish.

Bitcoin continues to demonstrate its growth potential and, according to Sebastián Serrano, 2025 could be a key year for the leading market asset. With the current price above $98,000 at the time of writing this note, Serrano pointed out that the projection of $150,000 per Bitcoin for 2025 already seems conservative.

"What seemed like a distant goal at the beginning of 2024 is now just a 50% increase away," Serrano commented. In fact — he added — many projections for 2025 already place the price of Bitcoin between $250,000 and $400,000. Although these figures may sound ambitious, the CEO of Ripio highlighted that if the current growth pace is maintained, Bitcoin could consistently reach $250,000.

The peak of the cycle and opportunities in Ethereum

Serrano considered that "a price between $150,000 and $250,000 for Bitcoin is the most likely at the peak of the next cycle." However, he admitted that if the cryptocurrency continues at this pace, "I will soon have to revise my projections." He also noted that not only Bitcoin is in focus. According to current trends, Ethereum could experience significant increases, reaching prices between $5,000 and $7,000 per ETH, he explained.

"If Bitcoin begins to move sideways for an extended period in 2025, we could see an altcoin season that further boosts the crypto ecosystem," Serrano stated. This phenomenon occurs when the profits earned by Bitcoin flow into other sectors of the market, such as L1 networks, utility tokens in DeFi, and lower market cap altcoins, he added.

The impact on the crypto ecosystem

According to Serrano, in a bull market context, opportunities are distributed continuously. "A large part of the money generated by Bitcoin ends up flowing into other projects, boosting networks and tokens that can offer additional returns," he explained.

Moreover, he highlighted that lower market cap altcoins could also benefit in this environment, especially if the market maintains its bullish momentum throughout 2025. This growth creates a more robust ecosystem, where opportunities diversify and innovative projects would have better chances of standing out, he commented.
