Bitcoin is on the rise again, rising above the $110,000 level after US President Donald Trump postponed his decision on new tariffs on the European Union. This development increased expectations that a new rally could begin in the markets.
According to leading crypto investors and analysts, the upward momentum in Bitcoin price may continue. Investors on prediction platforms like Polymarket are placing strong bets that Bitcoin will surpass $115,000 by the end of May.
In the Deribit options market, almost half of the call options in May 30 futures consist of positions that will pay off if BTC stays above $110,000. In December futures, $170,000 stands out as the most popular target.
Here are the Evaluations of 9 Experts About Bitcoin:
Arthur Hayes (Maelstrom)
Former BitMEX CEO and Maelstrom CIO Arthur Hayes predicts that Bitcoin will reach $1 million by 2028. According to Hayes, Trump’s economic policies and global geopolitical tensions will push investors away from US government bonds, and Bitcoin will be the new safe haven for this capital.
Geoff Kendrick (Standard Chartered)
Kendrick, chief crypto analyst at Standard Chartered, predicts that Bitcoin will reach $120,000 by July. Kendrick points out that investors have pulled $3.6 billion from gold ETFs in the last month and transferred $7.5 billion to Bitcoin ETFs. In addition, BTC ETFs currently hold close to 6% of the total supply. Kendrick says BTC could reach $200,000 by the end of 2025 and $500,000 by the end of 2028.
Bernstein Analysts
Three analysts from Bernstein stated that Bitcoin could reach $200,000 by 2026 as institutional investment accelerates. The analysts said, “Wall Street will be the largest wallet for Bitcoin,” indicating that institutions will dominate the market.
Noelle Acheson (Crypto is Macro Now)

Jay Jacobs (BlackRock)
