Bitcoin Hits Record $109,000 Ahead Of Trump's Inauguration, Sparks Market Rally

How Bitcoin Will Go From $65,000 To $225,000 In 2025

Investment bank H.C. Wainwright & Co. believes Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: BTC) correction could soon run its course, suggesting that the leading cryptocurrency may establish a solid floor around the $65,000 mark within the next few weeks.

What Happened: Despite near-term turbulence triggered by global tariff tensions, analysts at the firm are maintaining their long-term bullish stance with an unchanged year-end 2025 price target of $225,000.

In its latest industry update, the firm highlighted that Bitcoin's current decline, roughly 30% from its January 2025 all-time high of $109,358, is not unprecedented.

Drawing from patterns observed in previous market cycles, analysts note that Bitcoin has historically undergone temporary drawdowns of around 40% within a year following a halving event, typically before resuming its upward momentum.

"If historical patterns repeat," the report stated, "BTC could find a bottom within the next month or so at ~$65,000."

This projection comes nearly a year after Bitcoin's most recent halving on April 19, 2024.

Why It MattersL Despite the market sell-off spurred by President Trump's surprise announcement of sweeping tariffs on dozens of countries, H.C. Wainwright sees this volatility as largely priced in.

The firm remains optimistic about a second-half recovery, fueled by improving regulatory clarity, potential interest rate cuts, and expanding global liquidity.

"We expect the confluence of a favorable crypto regulatory environment, rate cuts, and rising global liquidity to drive prices materially higher," the analysts wrote.

At present, Bitcoin is trading at approximately $77,949, down about 8% since the tariff announcement but still outperforming other digital assets and major stock indices.

Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) and other top altcoins have dropped over 15%, while the Nasdaq has declined roughly 12%.

Even amid these market conditions, H.C. Wainwright reaffirmed its bullish outlook on CleanSpark (NASDAQ:CLSK), citing its operational scale and resilience.

"CleanSpark remains our top pick in the BTC mining sector," the report noted.
