Bitcoin bulls on a shopping spree: record purchases raise hope!
Over the past seven days, leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin (BTC) has seen a 3.45% decline, while altcoins as a whole have fallen by 8.54%. Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) was particularly hard hit, posting the largest weekly losses with a loss of 30.25%. This is followed by Virtuals Protocol (VIRTUAL, -25.66%) and DeXe Coin (DEXE, -21.57%). Despite these declines, crypto analysts such as Michael van de Poppe show optimism for Bitcoin, which is currently in a consolidation phase, and expect a “massive breakout”.
What is particularly noteworthy is that Bitcoin whales, i.e. large investors, have purchased over 600,000 BTC in the last four weeks. This corresponds to an amount that miners would mine in about ten months. These new large investors each hold at least 1,000 BTC, equivalent to over $100 million. According to Thomas Lee, an industry observer, 95% of Bitcoins are mined and only 5% of the world's population owns shares in them. An even distribution would mean that each person could receive around 0.002 BTC (approx. 184 euros).
Market forecasts and potential price developments
Lee predicts that the number of potential buyers will increase over the next decade, which could have a significant impact on the price of Bitcoin. He expects an increase to between 150,000 and 250,000 dollars by the end of 2025, although prices of up to three million dollars are possible in the long term. The Bitcoin price is currently at $104,768, which is 6.4% below the all-time high of $108,000 in January 2025.
Bitcoin's market capitalization is currently $2.08 trillion, with a price range between $75,000 and $85,000. Technical analysis shows a downtrend from the all-time high and suggests that stabilization in the $70,000-$80,000 range is necessary to end it. Expert estimates for price developments up to 2030 are varied:
| Year | bearish | average | bullish |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 50,000 | 160,000 | 270,000 |
| 2026 | 75,000 | 240,000 | 405,000 |
| 2027 | 105,000 | 357,500 | 610,000 |
| 2028 | 160,000 | 537,500 | 915,000 |
| 2029 | 235,000 | 800,000 | 1,365,000 |
| 2030 | 320,000 | 1,155,000 | 1,990,000 |
In recent months, a clear trend has emerged towards the adoption of Bitcoin as a store of value. Institutional investments are increasing, further increasing confidence in the cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrencies are increasingly being accepted as an alternative store of value. Buying options remain broad and include established crypto exchanges such as Kraken, eToro and Bitpanda.
Of course, investments in cryptocurrencies are speculative and also involve risks. Nevertheless, it turns out that while the market is experiencing volatile movements, the opportunities for capitalization are diverse for interested investors.
