In a latest blog post, VanEck has outlined its top 10 crypto predictions for 2025. VanEck predicts the Crypto bull market to hit a medium-term peak in Q1 and set new highs in Q4. It believes that the crypto bull market will persist through 2025, reaching its first peak in the first quarter. It projects Bitcoin to be valued at around $180,000, with Ethereum trading above $6,000, while Solana and Sui could exceed $500 and $10, respectively. Following this first peak, it anticipates a 30% retracement in BTC, with altcoins facing sharper declines of up to 60% as the market consolidates during the summer.

VanEck predicts that by 2025, either the federal government or at least one U.S. state, likely Pennsylvania, Florida, or Texas will establish a Bitcoin reserve. With new SEC leadership, multiple new spot crypto ETPs will be approved. Ethereum ETPs will include staking, while both Ethereum and Bitcoin ETPs will allow in-kind transactions and redemptions.
