Bitcoin analyst predicts BTC top will hit this price as the bull cycle ends
Bitcoin (BTC) has entered 2025 with high volatility and heightened market attention, with analysts predicting this year could mark the end of its current bull cycle.
According to Cycle Theory, which has accurately forecasted Bitcoin’s tops and bottoms for over a decade, the cryptocurrency is expected to reach its next Cycle Top of $200,000 by November 2025.
BTC price: Logarithmic Growth channel and supporting indicators
In an analysis by TradingShot, Bitcoin’s price trajectory is being tracked within the Logarithmic Growth Channel (LGC), a model that has reliably captured Bitcoin’s long-term growth patterns.
This approach is further supported by the Mayer Multiple Bands (MMB) and Pi Cycle trend lines, which provide deeper insights into Bitcoin’s price zones during market cycles.
The Mayer Multiple Bands define Bitcoin’s price extremes, with the ‘3SD above’ (Mayer Top) indicating the peak potential during bull markets, while the ‘3SD below’ (Mayer Bottom) serves as a critical support level.
The Pi Cycle trend lines offer another layer of dimension by identifying a Fair Value Zone, where Bitcoin tends to consolidate before major rallies or corrections.
Current cycle overview
TradingShot’s analysis indicates that Bitcoin is entering the final phase of its current bull cycle. Historical patterns show that the previous three cycle tops occurred in November or December of 2013, 2017, and 2021.
The 2021 Cycle Top, for instance, peaked slightly above the Pi Cycle Top without reaching the Mayer Top, suggesting a recurring pattern of topping within the upper LGC zones rather than at absolute extremes.
For 2025, the analysis projects a Cycle Top in the range of $180,000 to $200,000 by November, consistent with the cryptocurrency’s historical trajectory and technical indicators.
Bitcoin’s ongoing correction raises concerns
Bitcoin’s current price action, however, is not without challenges. A recent correction has pushed BTC below $100,000, and according to trading expert Alan Santana, this downward trend could extend as low as $40,000 as reported by Finbold.
Adding to the bearish sentiment, institutional demand appears to be waning.
According to data from Coinglass, Bitcoin spot Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) recorded a modest inflow of $52.40 million on January 6, significantly lower than the $978.60 million recorded on January 5.
A sustained decline in inflows, or the onset of strong outflows, could intensify selling pressure and drive Bitcoin’s price even lower.
Bitcoin price analysis
At press time, Bitcoin is trading at $94,444, reflecting a one-day loss of nearly 3%. On the weekly chart, the cryptocurrency is down 3.5%, further highlighting the short-term bearish momentum.
That being said, coming months will be crucial in determining whether Bitcoin can overcome its current challenges and deliver on the historic bull cycle potential that analysts have predicted for 2025.
