Bitcoin's Rise in 2025 and Market Multipolarization: Re-segmentation of Speculative Assets Including Meme Coins

The Bitcoin market in 2025 exhibits significantly different characteristics compared to traditional cycles. An analysis by a new economic research institution based in Hong Kong points out that the penetration of ETFs is a key factor behind these changes.

With the introduction of the ETF framework into the market, Bitcoin’s speculative nature has been alleviated, and a more stable price formation mechanism has been established. As a result, the usual volatility has decreased substantially, and market fluctuations are more limited compared to past cycles.

Market Forecast Divergence: Between Optimism and Caution

Regarding Bitcoin trends from 2026 to 2027, market participants’ views are widely divided. The bullish camp anticipates a rise to around $150,000 by the end of the year and envisions further growth to $250,000 by 2027. Meanwhile, cautious observers warn of the possibility of a correction phase, with many predicting significant market retracements.

According to analyses by Mr. Fu Ruo and others, these differing opinions also reflect the market’s maturity. While Bitcoin is increasingly integrated into the traditional financial system, it is believed that an additional 5 to 10 years are needed to establish social recognition comparable to gold assets.

The Multi-layered Cryptocurrency Market

Alongside Bitcoin, a variety of cryptocurrencies, including meme coins, are gaining attention. Looking at the list of related assets, it becomes clear that the market is not dependent on a single asset but is diversified across multiple speculative targets. This multi-layered structure could be a crucial factor influencing future market stability and growth.
