Bitcoin continued its upward trajectory on Wednesday, gaining 2.1% to trade at $97,003.4 by 06:50 GMT. This comes after a sharp rally on Tuesday, where the cryptocurrency briefly surpassed the $97,000 mark before retracing some gains.
Market analysts remain optimistic about Bitcoin's future, predicting substantial price growth. Fundstrat's Tom Lee, a notable Bitcoin advocate, has projected an end-of-2025 price target of $200,000 to $250,000, citing strong long-term fundamentals despite short-term volatility. Other experts suggest Bitcoin could reach between $175,000 and $461,000 within the same timeframe, supported by increased mainstream adoption and favorable regulatory policies anticipated under the incoming U.S. administration.
On-chain analytics from Santiment reveal that Bitcoin whales—holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC—have added nearly 2,997 BTC since January 1, 2025, signaling robust confidence in the cryptocurrency's potential. This accumulation aligns with expectations of strategic Bitcoin reserves and a broader push for adoption.
Investors brushed aside concerns over the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance, focusing instead on key Consumer Price Index (CPI) data due later in the day. The Fed had previously signaled a more measured approach to interest rate cuts for 2025.
The bullish sentiment extended to the broader cryptocurrency market. Ethereum climbed 1.4% to $3,225.25, while XRP surged 12.2% to $2.8387. Other notable gainers included Cardano, up 6.7%, and Dogecoin, rising 4.4%.
Bitcoin’s resilience, coupled with growing institutional interest and favorable policy developments, continues to bolster its long-term outlook, positioning it as a cornerstone of the evolving cryptocurrency market.
