A combination of factors indicates that Bitcoin (BTC) will continue to mark new maximum historical prices in 2025.
It is not for anything that three weeks ago its price arrived at 109,000 dollars (USD) for the first time. There are catalysts in the market that have promoted this milestone, and are still present.
The main reasons why the current panorama predicts that Bitcoin will continue the upward trend this year.
1. Pro-descriptomoned regulations, mainly in the United States
The change of government in the United States is a key aspect for the valuation of BTC this year. Unlike former president Joe Biden, who had a distant administration towards cryptocurrencies, the new leader, Donald Trump, has not only adopted a favorable position to the market, with policies that promote their adoption and development, but also goes for more.
«We will make the United States the world capital of cryptocurrencies,» said the new president in a speech in Davos. The fact that the main world financial power wants to lead the industry behind these assets gives it great legitimacyenabling more interest in the market globally.
Among the highlights in the ecosystem that the Trump administration has already done is the nomination of Paul Atkins, a cryptocurrency defender, to lead the stock and values commission (SEC), and the creation of the position of «Tsar of cryptocurrencies »in the White House.
BTC marked a new historical maximum price on Trump’s presidential assumption day three weeks ago. The currency has been in a tendency to new records since the president won the elections in November, as the following graph exhibits.
This speaks of the importance of Trump’s arrival for the market this year, so you advance in that direction of the new mandate will probably trigger greater demand for Bitcoin.
2. Trump advances in the Bitcoin strategic reserve
Trump has established a presidential team to evaluate the creation of a national storage of digital assets, following his idea shared in the campaign of forming a “Bitcoin strategic reserve”.
The legislator of her party, Cynthia Lummis, has also been appointed the director of a new subcommittee in the Senate dedicated to digital assets. And he has considered “urgent” that Congress approves the formation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve, as indicated in a bill that proposes to buy 1 million BTC over the next few years.
All this seems to indicate that, Sooner or later, the United States will buy Bitcoinunless winds against the Trump administration reversed their address. This implies great upward pressure for Bitcoin, considering the great volume it could acquire.
In addition, multiple states of that country are advancing in plans to also buy Bitcoin as «strategic reserve», an expression that has been popularized since Trump said it in the campaign. This reflects the growing government interest in this asset, a signal that facilitates the arrival of its price to new records.
3. Fontage effect: Other countries consider buy Bitcoin
At the moment, most world governments do not have bitcoin in their reserves. Nevertheless, Trump’s intention to have national positions in this “strategic” asset has placed this issue on the global political agenda.
As cryptootics shows in the following infographic, Poland, Germany, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Russia, Japan and Hong Kong are from the countries that currently evaluate Create Bitcoin reserves. Advances of these initiatives would give impulse for a price increase.
It would not be surprising that the United States allies, such as Argentina, also invest in this asset if the economic power does.
Beyond that the decision to buy Bitcoin in a government could be delayed or not even approved, the interest in evaluating this possibility and the existence of officials who support the investment makes more and more people want to enter this asset.
They are no longer individual people who see potential in BTC as «digital gold», but of large institutions such as governments and even companies, leading to the next point.
4. Bitcoin market institutionalization
Bitcoin has ceased to be just a niche for individual enthusiasts and has captured the attention of large corporations such as institutional investors and investment funds. Companies such as Microstrategy and Metaplenet have made significant investments in BTC, with recurring purchases, recognizing it as a scarce and valuable asset.
An army of companies issuing financial instruments have also launched last year investment funds quoted in the stock market (ETF) in Bitcoin in the United States, after approval. Blackrock, the world’s largest asset manager stands out.
Blackrock also last details to broadcast a Bitcoin ETF in Europewhich can amplify exposure to BTC. But, that’s not all. Even Truth.fi, a financial company linked to the Trump family, has registered the Bitcoin ETF brand to its name, which anticipates that it plans its launch.
In other words, the big financial players seem to be understanding that Bitcoin is a scarce asset and that the more benefit positions will be obtained.
5. Repetition of historical cycles
Historically, Bitcoin has experienced market cycles that alternate three bullish years around the halving and a bassist. According to such a employer, 2025 could represent the third year of a bullish cycle, before a possible correction or «crypto -winter» in 2026.
With the arrival of BTC at a new historical maximum price days, this cycle does not seem to be the exception to such a pattern. It is also the first year of a new government in the United States, something that It usually promotes the rise in financial markets, including Bitcoin.
Bitcoin always reached the end of each bullish cycle in the following year of a halving, an event that reduces the broadcast of BTC automatically every four years. This strengthens optimism in 2025, considering that its last edition occurred in 2024.
The BTC price, in addition, remains lateralized in wide range around USD 100,000 for more than two months, which shows a strong floor to continue the upward trend.
In summary, the combination of historical patterns, favorable regulatory policies, government interest and international adoption suggests that Bitcoin is well positioned to reach new historical maximums in 2025.
