Here's Bitcoin's path to $250,000 by Q4, according to expert
Bitcoin’s (BTC) ongoing bullish run shows no signs of slowing, with an analyst projecting that the asset could reach $200,000 by 2025.
To this end, trading expert Michaël van de Poppe forecasts that Bitcoin will reach a record high of $250,000 by Q4 2025, according to his July 11 post on X.
He expects the maiden digital asset to reach $125,000 in July, climb to $150,000 by the end of the quarter, and ultimately target $250,000 by year-end.
Poppe’s outlook is guided by Bitcoin’s ability to break decisively above the $110,000 and $112,000 resistance zone, which had capped previous rallies.
He noted that late June saw liquidity sweep below $105,000, followed by accumulation around $100,400 and $105,000, paving the way for the breakout. The recent move above $110,000 was accompanied by rising volume, indicating strong buying momentum.
While a short-term pullback is possible as liquidity above $112,000 is absorbed, Poppe sees $125,000 and $150,000 as near-term targets, with a potential parabolic run to $250,000 if these levels give way.
Key Bitcoin price levels to watch
Separately, pseudonymous analyst BitBull, in a July 12 X post, echoed similar targets. He noted that after breaking $117,000, Bitcoin could push toward $120,000 in the coming days, followed by a period of consolidation.
This pattern, he said, resembles February 2024, when Bitcoin paused after a sharp rally, giving altcoins room to catch up before resuming its climb. BitBull projects Bitcoin could then advance to $135,000 and $140,000, marking a potential local top.
Bitcoin price analysis
At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $117,810, representing a gain of more than 8% over the past week.
Technically, Bitcoin remains bullish, trading well above the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) at $106,967 and the 200-day SMA at $88,448. However, the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) at 72.85 signals overbought conditions, suggesting the risk of a near-term pullback if momentum cools.

Morgan Stanley believes that the recent sell-off in the semiconductor sector has been excessive, and that market panic rather than fundamentals is the biggest risk. Driven by demand for AI infrastructure, downstream orders continue to accelerate, with semiconductor supply remaining the core bottleneck. LPS constraints actually make growth more stable. The sector may fluctuate within a range in the short term and is currently near the bottom; prospects for the computing power and storage subsectors are favorable.

Joseph Lupton from the JP Morgan Global Economic Research Team pointed out in a research report on November 10 that recent improvements in labor productivity have been driven more by capital deepening and increased intensity of factor utilization. The broad efficiency gains from AI, resulting from process reconstruction, data integration, and organizational adjustments, will still take time to materialize. This means orders for chips, servers, and electrical equipment may grow first, but continuous investment returns for computing power operators and end users may not arrive at the same pace.

Goldman Sachs believes that the AI investment cycle is currently in the "trough of disillusionment," but this is not the first time.

Social Capital founder Palihapitiya has clearly defined an 18-month key window, during which the market will decide which AI business models are sustainable and which are not.
