Matrixport sees Bitcoin at $160K According to the Matrixport report , BTC price is expected to reach $160,000 in 2025, which is still a 60% upward run from current market conditions. This target comes with projections of sustained demand for Bitcoin ETFs, macroeconomic shifts, and global liquidity expansion. Its analysis recommends a 1.55% allocation for optimal diversification and portfolio stability. The report mentioned that adoption is nearing a critical threshold and Bitcoin could cross the 8% global adoption mark by 2025.
