VanEck’s Bold Bitcoin Prediction
Analysts at VanEck, one of the world’s largest crypto asset managers, recently published a particularly optimistic forecast regarding the future price evolution of Bitcoin. According to their valuation model, the leading cryptocurrency could reach the symbolic threshold of $180,000 by the end of 2025.

This bullish projection is based on several fundamental factors which, according to VanEck’s experts, should continue to support Bitcoin’s valuation in the long term. These include growing adoption of cryptocurrencies by institutional investors, increasing interest from governments and central banks in digital assets, as well as the intrinsic scarcity of Bitcoin with its limited supply.
Technical Analysis: BTC Heading Toward New Heights?
From a technical perspective, BTC indeed appears well-positioned to continue its upward trajectory. As mentioned in a previous article, Bitcoin has everything it needs to reach at least $145,000 in the coming months.
However, this target could serve as a local peak for BTC. Indeed, Bitcoin cycles have changed, and the $180,000 target might be reached in the more distant future, by the end of 2026.
For now, Bitcoin needs to reclaim $117,000 to turn bullish again in the short term.
I‘m more than confident that Bitcoin will dump below $100,000 in September, followed by new ATH‘s in the coming weeks and months after ⏳

It remains likely that Bitcoin could fall below $100,000 in September, as predicted by trader DrProfits. The daily chart and the MRC show similarities with BTC’s price action last February before its correction to $76,000. This time, Bitcoin could touch $97,000 if this pattern repeats.
Although speculative, VanEck’s prediction of Bitcoin reaching $180,000 by 2025 highlights the still intact upside potential of the leading cryptocurrency. For savvy crypto investors, this outlook could represent an opportunity not to be missed in the coming months.
Nevertheless, it’s important to keep in mind that the cryptocurrency market remains extremely volatile. Caution in the short term and throughout September remains a priority. As long as BTC doesn’t maintain $115,000 on the daily timeframe, it will head toward $113,000. And if $113,000 isn’t maintained, it will seek new lows.
