How High Can Bitcoin Go In 2025? Legendary Trader Reveals

by

As a seasoned researcher with over four decades of financial market experience under my belt, I find Peter Brandt’s bullish forecast for Bitcoin intriguing. His analysis, rooted in historical patterns and cyclical trends observed in Bitcoin’s halving cycles, resonates with me given my own background in recognizing patterns across different assets and markets.

Veteran trader Peter Brandt, boasting nearly five decades of trading experience dating back to 1975, has projected a positive outlook for Bitcoin‘s price trend in 2025. Speaking on platform X, he commented: “Bitcoin ($BTC) currently finds itself at an advantageous position within the bull market halving cycle, which could peak around $130,000 to $150,000 by August or September next year. I approach cycles differently than many others.

How High Can Bitcoin Go In 2025?

Brandt’s analysis is based on the recurring trends seen in Bitcoin’s halving cycles. His graph, extending from early 2022 up to 2026, emphasizes two substantial periods, each lasting approximately 518 days. These durations denote crucial stages in Bitcoin’s market dynamics, demonstrating the cyclical aspect of its price fluctuations.

A notable technical pattern identified in his chart is the breakout from a broadening wedge. This formation, characterized by diverging support and resistance lines, suggests increasing market volatility as prices make progressively higher highs and lower lows. The successful breakout from this pattern is considered a strong bullish signal.

In a blog post dated June, titled “The Stunning Symmetry in Past Bitcoin Bull Market Cycles,” Brandt explained the importance of halving events. He noted that these halving dates have often served as the midpoints of past bull market cycles, demonstrating a near-perfect symmetry within these phases. More specifically, Brandt found that the duration, in weeks, from the commencement of each bull market cycle to the halving dates has been remarkably similar to the duration, also in weeks, from the halving dates to the subsequent bull market peaks.

According to Brandt’s analysis, given the symmetrical pattern he observed, it is predicted that if the trend continues, the next peak for a bull market may occur around late August or early September of 2025. He further notes that historically, the high points of bull markets tend to follow an inverted parabolic curve. If this pattern persists, the potential high for this particular bull market cycle could range from $130,000 to $150,000.

Regarding his forecast, Brandt adopts a prudent approach rather than being overly optimistic. He underscores that no prediction method is infallible and refrains from being overconfident about any theory. Though this perspective is his preferred analysis, he acknowledges it’s not the only possible interpretation. Brandt also discloses that there’s a 25% chance Bitcoin’s price has peaked for this cycle, but if Bitcoin fails to establish a new record high and drops below $55,000, he might increase his belief in an “Exponential Decay” scenario.

As a crypto investor, I’ve been closely following Brandt’s analysis, and it seems the wider crypto community is doing the same. Notably, renowned analyst Astronomer (@astronomer_zero) concurred with Brandt’s top estimation recently, emphasizing the significance of accurately predicting the market peak. In his words, “I believe you’re right on the money with that top estimation Peter! When it comes to pinpointing the bottom, our responsibility is to nail the top if possible in a single attempt. The terminal price does an excellent job at this. I also have 6 other metrics in place. If they all align, it’s a clear sell signal, and my target is around $160,000.

In a subsequent conversation, an individual using X asked about potential consequences for the Bitcoin-to-Gold ratio (BTC/GLD), hinting it could indicate a significantly higher price. Brandt replied, “Indeed, in the future. However, let’s proceed cautiously, avoiding overly rigid predictions.

At press time, BTC traded at $74,940.
