In a report titled “Crypto Market Outlook 2025,” asset management firm Signum outlined several factors that are likely to push BTC prices even higher next year.

Additionally, the report points out that Bitcoin's price momentum is amplified by the concept of reflexivity, meaning that as the price rises, the demand for Bitcoin increases, forming a feedback loop. With the influx of institutional investors, multiplier effects, and Bitcoin's reflexivity, 2025 is expected to be a pivotal year for cryptocurrencies.
The report also highlights the importance of the pro-cryptocurrency regulatory environment in the United States following the confirmation of Donald Trump's victory in the November presidential election. The outcome is widely seen as positive for crypto law, with hopes for a comprehensive regulatory framework that will bring much-needed clarity to the industry.

Additionally, BTC could benefit from central banks and local governments looking to set aside some of their funds as BTC reserves. In particular, countries like El Salvador and Bhutan are already actively mining and accumulating BTC as part of their broader national economic strategies.
The report adds that inflows to crypto ETFs in 2025 are likely to be “significantly higher” than historical net inflows. As of Dec. 11, the U.S.-based Spot BTC ETF had a total net asset value of $113.72 billion, according to SoSoValue data.
Despite the optimistic forecast, the report acknowledges several potential risks that could dampen Bitcoin's bullish trajectory. These include inflationary pressures, geopolitical uncertainty, and Tether's increasing dominance in the stablecoin market.
