Analyst Bit Paine foresees Bitcoin reaching $1 million by 2025, backed by historical patterns post-halving events. An analysis of supply dynamics estimates a controlled market release of 10-15% of newly mined Bitcoins due to various evolving factors. The anticipated influx of $1-5 trillion in capital over the next five years is expected to drive this surge, making Bitcoin more accessible to both institutional and retail investors. However, recent volatility ensued as Bitcoin surged above $45,000 but faced a subsequent decline linked to uncertainties surrounding SEC's ETF approvals.
