Tom Lee, head of research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, connected the dots during a CNBC interview with a new Bitcoin price prediction: \u201cI think bitcoin can easily get to $200,000 before year-end. I know it\u2019s a big move. It\u2019s almost a double.\u201d<\/p>\n
His case rests on historical stock precedent<\/a> that in both 1998 and 2024, Fed easing cycles reignited equities in Q4, and Lee argues that top cryptocurrencies<\/a>, as \u201cbeta to equities,\u201d should follow suit.<\/p>\n Lee added, \u201cBitcoin and cryptocurrencies like Ethereum are super sensitive to monetary policy. So, I think that September 17th is an important catalyst. Crypto typically does really well in the fourth quarter.\u201d \u2013 Tom Lee, Fundstrat.<\/p>\n Not everyone shares that optimism. Gold advocate<\/a> and long-time Bitcoin skeptic Peter Schiff argued on X that the opposite could play out:<\/p>\n \u201cInstead of hitting $200K by year-end after the Fed cuts rates, it\u2019s more likely to sink below $100K.\u201d \u2013 Peter Schiff.<\/p>\n Peter Schiff: \u201cUpcoming Fed rate cuts are a HUGE mistake\u201d<\/p>\n He publicy predicted 2008 crisis and made $70M<\/p>\n Now he warns it’ll spark inflation and crash markets<\/p>\n Here\u2019s what it means for crypto and what’s next pic.twitter.com\/uGaooJXFiS<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 NoName (@WhaleNoName) September 15, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n Bitcoin maxis act like the fiat collapse will only benefit BTC instead of all high-quality limited supply assets (real estate, stocks, gold, Ethereum<\/a>, etc.).<\/p>\n And this is Schiff\u2019s point. Whether Bitcoin is the largest beneficiary of Q4 rate cuts remains to be seen.<\/p>\n Spot Bitcoin ETFs logged more than $2.3 billion in inflows last week, according to Farside Investor<\/a>s, extending a steady September streak. K33 Research reports corporate treasuries now hold close to 950,000 BTC worth over $110 bn.<\/p>\n (Source: Farside Investors<\/a>)<\/p>\n CoinGlass <\/a>data shows that future open interest has increased by more than +15% since September 1, with longs outweighing shorts. The setup mirrors conditions that preceded strong Q4 rallies in 2017, 2020, and 2021.<\/p>\n The headline call is Lee\u2019s $200K target, but most crypto expert consensus online sits around $180K. VanEck has backed that figure through multiple updates, citing ETF demand, corporate balance-sheet buying, and Bitcoin\u2019s growing status as digital gold.<\/p>\n SkyBridge\u2019s Anthony Scaramucci also ranges between $180K and $200K. 99Bitcoins analysts argue that the mix of halving-driven supply pressure and rate cuts<\/a> could create Bitcoin\u2019s most favorable setup since the last major bull run.<\/p>\n EXPLORE: Did Dogecoin ETF Just Change Everything For Meme Coins?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Join The 99Bitcoins News Discord Here For The Latest Market Updates<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Tom Lee, head of research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, connected the dots during a CNBC interview with a new Bitcoin price prediction <\/p>\n The headline call is Lee\u2019s $200K target, but consensus sits around $180K.. <\/p><\/div>\n The post Bitcoin Price Prediction: Can BTC Reach $200K by Year-End or $180K in 2025?<\/a> appeared first on 99Bitcoins<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Tom Lee, head of research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, connected the dots during a CNBC interview with a new Bitcoin price prediction: \u201cI think bitcoin can easily get to $200,000 before year-end.
