Bitcoin price prediction after halving

1. Stock-to-flow model prediction

In May 2025, it will reach 1,293,182 US dollars, which is close to the 1,500,000 US dollars predicted by Cathie Wood.

Data source: Glassnode

2. Linear model prediction

The linear model uses a fixed window of 18 months after the halving to calculate the price change rate, and then uses the linear model to predict the change rate in the next 18 months after the halving, and obtains a 375.66% increase forecast.

Data source: CoinMarketCap

By observing the stock-to-flow model and the actual price changes, it can be seen that the strongest price increases of Bitcoin occur about a year after the halving. The linear regression model predicts the rate of change one and a half years after the halving, and the result is 375.66% , that is, Bitcoin will reach 260,000 US dollars around December 20, 2025. The above are all model data predictions and are not investment advice.

Summarize

In the past week's market, the prices of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) both fell after rising on April 8. The historical volatility and trading volume were both large when the price rose on April 8 and the CPI was announced, and the open interest did not change much. The implied volatility of BTC and ETH has decreased compared with the beginning of the week. In addition, the funding rate has rebounded slightly from a low level, indicating that the sentiment of contract trading has gradually warmed up. The overall market width indicator of small coins is still in a relatively weak stage. In terms of events, after the CPI data was announced on April 10, the prices of mainstream coins fell to a short-term low and then rebounded. Bitcoin will be halved in the next week, and investors can pay close attention to the investment opportunities of halving.
