Bernstein analysts expect that Bitcoin’s price will reach $200,000 by 2025 and $1 million by 2033. This comes after high inflows into spot US Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) after their approval in January 2024. The prediction comes amid a market decline as bulls and bears struggle to to decide the crypto market direction.&nbsp;

Most recently, Bernstein analysts have made a BTC prediction on the back of Spot BTC ETFs. These analysts predict that spot BTC ETFs could represent around 7% of the total circulating BTC supply by the end of 2025. 
Bernstein analysts Gautam Chhugani and Mahika Sapra wrote in a note addressed to their clients, “We see Bitcoin ETFs as on the cusp of approvals at major wirehouses/large private bank platforms in Q3/Q4.”&nbsp; 
<blockquote> 
 The institutional basis trade looks like the ‘Trojan Horse’ for adoption, and these investors are in the process of evaluating ‘net long’ positions.

</blockquote> 
According to the analysts, the majority of spot Bitcoin ETF flows currently originate from self-directed retail investors through broker platforms, while institutional integrations with wirehouses are still in the early stages. 
The analysts add, “Around $15 billion of net new flows have been brought in by the ETFs combined, […] We expect Bitcoin ETFs to be equivalent to ~7% of Bitcoin in circulation by 2025 and ~15% of Bitcoin supply by 2033.” 
At present, the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index stands at 60, signaling a Greed market metric.

As confirmed by founder and former CEO <a href="https://x.com/saylor/status/1803763490928119950" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Michael Saylor,</a> the company recently acquired an additional 11,931 BTC for approximately $786.0 million. 
The business intelligence firm currently possesses 226,331 BTC, which accounts for roughly 1.15% of the total global supply of Bitcoin. 
MicroStrategy recently revealed its intention to raise $800 million through convertible senior notes due 2032. The funds generated from this offering will be used to increase its Bitcoin holdings.
