BlackRock’s $700K forecast assumes 2-5% institutional allocation; Standard Chartered cites $200K as a macro hedge.Risks include volatility, regulations, and skepticism, with VanEck warning of retracements despite bullish ETF inflows.A recent tweet by @DiscoverCrypto_ has sparked widespread discussion by compiling Bitcoin price predictions for 2025 from leading financial institutions and analysts. The forecasts range from $122,000 to $700,000, reflecting a mix of optimism and caution.MAJOR BANKING INSTITUTIONS ARE GIVING SHOCKING $BTC PRICE PREDICTIONSTHESE ARE NOT YOUTUBERS LIKE ME$220K BITCOIN THIS YEAR pic.twitter.com/fLDxQCj8aO— Discover Crypto (@DiscoverCrypto_) May 14, 2025Here’s a breakdown of the analysis.Bitcoin reached an all-time high of $93,000 in November 2024, driven by the approval of U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, post-election enthusiasm, and broader institutional adoption.The 2024 halving event, which reduced miner rewards by 50%, has historically triggered supply shocks and bullish price cycles. This backdrop sets the stage for competing predictions about Bitcoin’s trajectory in 2025.Price Predictions and RationalesStandard Chartered projects $200,000, citing Bitcoin’s role as a macro hedge and growing institutional inflows. H.C. Wainwright forecasts $225,000, linking this to the halving’s impact and clearer regulatory frameworks.Source: @DiscoverCrypto_Sina (21st Capital) uses quantitative models to predict a range of $135,000 to $285,000. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink’s $700,000 prediction hinges on institutions allocating 2-5% of portfolios to Bitcoin. Fundstrat’s Tom Lee and Anthony Pompliano both target $250,000, anticipating liquidity surges and demand shocks.Chamath Palihapitiya’s $500,000 estimate frames Bitcoin as a “monetary escape valve” amid fiat instability. VanEck offers a tempered $180,000 outlook, including potential retracements, while 10x Research and GFO-X Survey suggest $122,000 and $150,000, respectively, based on technical patterns and sentiment.Institutional adoption and ETF inflows are central to bullish forecasts. The halving’s supply constraints and Bitcoin’s appeal as an inflation hedge further support these views. However, risks persist. Volatility remains a concern, as highlighted by VanEck’s warning of potential corrections.Feasibility of ProjectionsThe lower range ($122,000–$180,000) implies a 31–94% rise from Bitcoin’s 2024 peak, aligning with historical post-halving rallies. The mid-range ($200,000–$285,000) requires a 115–207% increase, achievable if institutional demand accelerates alongside favorable macro conditions. The highest targets ($500,000–$700,000) depend on extreme scenarios like hyperinflation or systemic fiat collapses, making them speculative for 2025 but plausible over longer horizons.The post Bitcoin in 2025: Where Is the Price Headed According to Major Institutions? appeared first on ETHNews.
