Bitcoin Stops Short of $100K; New Bitcoin Price Prediction
Bitcoin is having some trouble climbing past $95K and has stopped short of a rise to $100K in its most recent bullish surge.

Quick overview
- Bitcoin recently surged to $95,548 but fell short of the anticipated $100K mark, disappointing many investors.
- Analysts remain optimistic, with predictions of Bitcoin reaching $1 million by 2028 despite current stagnation.
- Recent economic data could influence Bitcoin's price movement, as it has been holding steady around $95K.
- Challenges in reaching $100K may persist, making a $150K target by the end of 2025 increasingly unlikely.
Many investors expected Bitcoin (BTC) to climb to $100K in its recent surge, but it stopped short at $95,548 (BTC/USD), disappointing the market with its stagnation.

Bitcoin has been hovering around the $95K mark for a few days now, and it does not look like it will hit $100,000 very soon, but that has not stopped analysts from predicting a $1 million price point for the cryptocurrency over the next few years.
The CIO of Maelstrom Arthur Hayes says that by 2028, he expects Bitcoin to have hit $1 million, and he is not the only one predicting sky high values for Bitcoin over the next few years. Many analysts see 2025’s difficulties as a temporary issue that will be overcome.
Bitcoin has made tremendous progress in recent weeks, moving from $74.8K to its current $94.5K in less than a month. That has been exciting for investors, and many whales have started to move on the coin again, including MicroStrategy with a recent investment of over $1 billion. That company owns about $46 billion in Bitcoin, which makes it the largest Bitcoin investor in the world.
Price Prediction for Bitcoin
BTC has been holding fairly steady for the past few days, which could mean that it is preparing to climb in the near future or that it is having trouble holding onto its current level. The next influential factor that appears will likely shift it one way or the other.
There is new economic data coming out this week, and that could have an impact on Bitcoin. With nonfarm payrolls, consumer spending, and personal income all to be reported this week, we could see Bitcoin shift quickly in one direction or another. It is in a precipitous place right now, having just finished a lengthy upward swing. The market may not support another bullish run so soon, so the likelihood is that Bitcoin will drop at the least influence.
Bitcoin has had considerable difficulty in reaching back to $100K this year, and we expect those troubles may continue for a while longer. It is looking less and less likely that Bitcoin can hit $150K by the end of 2025.
