In recent days, Bitcoin has faced pressure from the stock market and new trade tariffs. This has raised concerns among investors and analysts regarding the future of cryptocurrency.
Current State of the Bitcoin Market
Currently, Bitcoin has fallen below a crucial price point, coinciding with a general downturn in stock markets. This has led to the liquidation of large margin positions worth over half a billion dollars.
Expert Opinions on Bitcoin's Future
Popular expert Anthony Pompliano believes that Bitcoin and stocks will rebound and reach new highs before the end of 2025. However, according to him, the recovery campaign will not be easy, as market volatility remains high. He noted:
> "Stocks and Bitcoin will likely reach all-time highs again before the end of the year. All this noise will quickly be forgotten."
Additionally, BitMex founder Arthur Hayes predicts that in the short term, Bitcoin may drop to $76,000–$78,000.
Reasons for Market Volatility
The main factors contributing to the new market turmoil include new tariffs, uncertainty regarding Federal Reserve policy, and geopolitical tensions. For instance, China announced counter-tariffs of 34% on U.S. goods. In such an unstable environment, Bitcoin's status as a 'safe haven' is under additional scrutiny.
Thus, the current state of the Bitcoin market is shaped by several factors, and while forecasts appear optimistic, short-term volatility may significantly impact future prospects.
