AI predicts Bitcoin price for end of 2025

As Bitcoin (BTC) faces heightened volatility following the historic October 10 crash, an artificial intelligence tool suggests the asset could potentially reach a record high of near $200,000 by the end of 2025.

As of press time, Bitcoin was trading at $112,474, down 2.7% in the past 24 hours and over 7% for the week.

For its end-2025 outlook, Finbold turned to OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which predicts Bitcoin could trade near $195,000, supported by improving macroeconomic conditions, steady institutional inflows, and resilient on-chain activity.

The AI’s forecast is based on four key factors: monetary policy, institutional participation, blockchain health, and market sentiment.

It expects modest Federal Reserve rate cuts by late 2025 to restore liquidity and renew investor appetite for risk assets, while consistent demand from spot Bitcoin ETFs could further lift prices given the cryptocurrency’s limited supply.

On-chain data indicate a stable mid-cycle phase, reflected in strong activity from long-term holders and active wallets.

Although market sentiment remains cautious after the recent correction, ChatGPT noted that it appears to be recovering, a pattern that historically precedes new rallies once leverage resets.

In coming up with the December 31 price outlook, ChatGPT’s model began with a 2024 closing price of about $95,000 and a mid-October 2025 level near $113,000.

Using historical cycle data, it estimates potential gains of 60% to 110% over the following year, projecting a target range of $185,000 to $210,000 for Bitcoin by December 2025, with a base forecast of around $195,000.

The model assumes continued institutional adoption and a supportive macro environment but warns of downside risks if sentiment weakens or regulatory pressure intensifies. In a bearish scenario, Bitcoin could retreat to between $85,000 and $100,000, roughly aligning with previous cycle highs.

Overall, ChatGPT envisions Bitcoin entering 2026 at or near record levels, provided liquidity remains strong and institutional participation continues to expand.
