Citi: After a Strong Year for Bitcoin, 2025 Will Welcome "Altcoin Season"
In recent weeks, Bitcoin trading has been in a sideways range, with traders looking for new catalysts to push Bitcoin higher. Analysts and commentators have indicated that due to Trump's promise to reduce regulation on digital assets, altcoins (any cryptocurrency that is not Bitcoin) are expected to rebound this year. Citi analysts stated in a report on Monday: "Given that Ethereum is the only major cryptocurrency approved as a spot ETF base (besides Bitcoin), it may be a rotation target." Other cryptocurrencies have performed even better, and their share of the overall cryptocurrency market capitalization is also growing. Citi added that respondents in a recent survey believe that altcoins will perform particularly well in 2025. Analysts stated: "The performance of other cryptocurrencies and altcoins is even more significant, indicating that some market participants expect a 'altcoin season' in 2025 after Bitcoin has had a strong year."

An analyst stated that Bitcoin could rise to a historic high of over $125,000 in the first quarter of this year or drop to $77,000—key factors depend on whether Trump will quickly fulfill his promises to the cryptocurrency industry after taking office. These promises include making the US the "capital of internet cryptocurrency" and the "world's Bitcoin superpower."
Mark Cuban: I Prefer Holding Bitcoin Over Gold if the Economy Faces Issues
Billionaire Mark Cuban stated in a recent interview: "If the economy faces issues, I would prefer to hold Bitcoin rather than gold. Many Bitcoin holders also see Bitcoin as an 'excellent store of value,' and people will view Bitcoin as an upgraded version of gold." Cuban added that if the dollar collapses, people won't carry gold bars with them, while Bitcoin is portable and more suitable for small transactions than precious metals. Therefore, besides serving as a store of value, Bitcoin can also become a practical currency, making it easier to buy, sell, divide, purchase goods, and conduct international transfers, thus being more valuable than gold.
