Two leading Bitcoin advocates in the corporate and retail investor space — MicroStrategy's Michael Saylor and 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' author Robert Kiyosaki — both predict the world's largest cryptocurrency could double by the end of 2025.
The forecast comes as Bitcoin is trading around $111,000–$115,000, down from its all-time high of $126,000 earlier this month.
Michael Saylor's $150,000 Prediction
Bitcoin is still recovering from a sudden $19 billion liquidation across the crypto market on October 10, according to data. However, industry leaders remain optimistic about the possibility of a new high by Christmas.
Speaking on CNBC, MicroStrategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor said Bitcoin's growth cycle remains intact despite short-term corrections.
“I think Bitcoin will continue to move higher. Volatility is decreasing as the industry becomes more structured,” Saylor said.
He predicts Bitcoin could hit $150,000 by the end of 2025, based on the consensus of equity analysts following the company.
“Our current expectation is around $150,000 by the end of this year,” he added. “I don’t see why it can’t inch up to $1 million per coin over the next 4–8 years. Of course, my long-term forecast is about 30% growth per year for the next 20 years and we’re looking at $20 million per Bitcoin.”
Saylor's optimism comes as MicroStrategy continues to buy Bitcoin . The company bought 390 BTC in late October for about $43.4 million, bringing its total holdings to 640,808 BTC.
However, MicroStrategy (MSTR) shares have fallen nearly 13% this month, sliding from $332 to $289, mirroring Bitcoin's pullback from its recent highs.
The drop shows how closely MSTR valuation tracks crypto market sentiment.
Kiyosaki's $200,000 Outlook
Meanwhile, Robert Kiyosaki expressed a similarly optimistic view on X (formerly Twitter). He revealed that he holds “millions of dollars in Bitcoin” and predicted that the price could reach $200,000 by the end of the year.
Kiyosaki uses his own portfolio to emphasize the role of emotional intelligence in investing. “Losers are more afraid of losing money than they are of getting rich,” he writes , arguing that fear of short-term losses causes investors to miss out on long-term gains.
His message resonated with Bitcoin's retail investor community, especially during a volatile month that tested investors' patience.
His take on emotional control reflects a recurring theme in crypto cycles — resilience during corrections often paving the way for strong rallies.
Market context

Institutional cash flows remain steady, but thin liquidation and concentrated liquidations have increased short-term risks.

Saylor's systematic thesis and Kiyosaki's behavioral perspective both lead to a common belief: Bitcoin's long-term trajectory remains upward.
Both expect significant gains through 2025, despite macro uncertainty and volatile trading conditions.
