Bitcoin (BTC) and MicroStrategy (MSTR) Are Poised for a Big 2025, According to This Crypto Analyst

A major driver for MSTR's future performance will be Bitcoin, which Matt believes is entering a historically strong period after its 2024 halving.

Popular crypto analyst Matt (@matt_utxo) has shared an optimistic 2025 forecast for both Bitcoin and MicroStrategy (Nasdaq: MSTR).

According to Matt, MicroStrategy’s stock is bottoming out following the massive crash from the high of $540 in November 2024. He expects the stock to stabilize between $270 and $300, with a brief dip to around $250.

Here’s an optimistic outlook for $MSTR to close out 2024… we have a very big 2025 ahead of us.

TL;DR I think that $MSTR is in the process of bottoming and will find its footing in the $270-$300 range (this would satisfy the gap from November 11, it could potentially wick to $250 or lower,… pic.twitter.com/3N7UTLh20D

He points out signs of strength in the $270-$300 range, which may indicate that this could be a buying opportunity. With Bitcoin’s performance expected to improve, Matt is expecting a strong recovery for MSTR, especially in Q1 2025.

However, Matt also notes that MSTR stock is falling hard due to the “popping bubble” and a reverse gamma squeeze. He adds that the stock decoupled from Bitcoin when the latter was rallying and is now correcting.

Traders unwinding positions and broker-dealers selling shares also added to the pressure, but this downtrend may be ending. Bullish divergence on the relative strength index suggests that MSTR’s price could consolidate and bounce back.

A major driver for MSTR’s future performance will be Bitcoin, which Matt believes is entering a historically strong period after the 2024 halving. Most people expect Bitcoin to reach about $80,000, but Matt is even more optimistic in his predictions.

He believes that Bitcoin could break above $100,000 in January and then hit $125,000 by February. This is in line with Bitcoin’s seasonal strength and positive market sentiment.

Matt also highlights several significant events that could be felt both on Bitcoin and MSTR in the coming months.

Starting in January, $16 billion in FTX repayments may flood the market with liquidity, increasing prices.

The U.S. debt ceiling is expected to expire on January 1, causing short-term discomfort but potentially rebounding quickly in the market.

The potential inclusion of Bitcoin-related assets in the S&P 500 and the implementation of FASB rules in mid-2025 could bring institutional interest to both Bitcoin and MSTR.

Overall, Matt expects increased volatility for MSTR in 2025 but believes the company’s strategy of acquiring more Bitcoin could strengthen its balance sheet and drive its stock price higher as global macroeconomic trends favor Bitcoin’s growth.
