Bitcoin (BTC) $83,095 price is hovering around $105,400, and no significant movement has been observed in altcoins after the FOMC meeting. Trump has taken necessary steps to explore future actions regarding cryptocurrencies and create a roadmap. This raises the question: when will the anticipated rise in prices begin in 2025? Let’s examine various experts’ short, medium, and long-term expectations.
The Cryptocurrency Roadmap for 2025
BTC has been steadily increasing over the long term; however, frequent double-digit declines continue to pull altcoins lower. To end this trend and maintain market-wide growth, sustained six-figure closings are essential.
An analyst using the nickname Nachi shared his expected scenario today.
“The FOMC did not impact the market as expected. While Trump and central banks continue to buy BTC, this is a Bitcoin-focused season. We have better confirmation that February/March will be bullish for us.”
He projects that Bitcoin is currently in the first wave of the third wave, moving beyond the $110,000 range, and could reach over $120,000 by February. The Stoch RSI is also indicating low levels, similar to when Bitcoin dropped to $89,000, and he believes we are at the peak right now.
Will Altcoins Rise?
Many new cryptocurrency traders are wondering this. While experienced investors have faced similar downturns in past cycles, the current period feels particularly frustrating. Ethereum $1,941 has remained stagnant around $3,300 for months, behaving almost like a stablecoin, with major double-digit gains offset by even larger double-digit losses in altcoins.
Michael Poppe expects a rise based on the ETHBTC chart, while Daan Crypto Trades continues to point out the descending wedge in the ETHUSDT chart.
“ETH is set to retest the upper side of this significant descending wedge. If you want your altcoins to perform well, hope for ETH to break through and lead the altcoin market with it.”
“It looks promising here, but it has looked good before. We need this breakout.”
