Expect As BTC Trends Sideways In the forecast posted on X social media, 
Bitcoin is expected to reach a peak of $150,000 during the next bull market. 
Currently trading at $117,629, the flagship cryptocurrency has pulled back 
from its recent all-time high above $123,000. To reach the projected $150,000 
target, BTC would need to surge by roughly 27.52% from its current level. 
Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency, is also set for significant gains 
this cycle. Altcoin Daily forecasts that the altcoin is likely to hit $5,000 
in 2025. Over the past few weeks, Ethereum has posted strong gains, overcoming 
key resistance and emerging from a prolonged consolidation phase. Now trading 
at $3,696, the top altcoin has surged by an impressive 61.45% over the past 
month. From this level, ETH would need to climb approximately 35.26% to reach 
a $5,000 peak. Weighing in on other major altcoins, Chainlink, the leading 
decentralized oracle provider, is expected to rise to $30, representing a 
potential surge of over 57% from its current price of $19.1. As for Binance 
Coin, Altcoin Daily anticipates a strong rally toward the $1,000 mark from 
BNB’s current price of $759. For the final forecast, Altcoin Daily sets a $10 
target for Aptos, a relatively newer Layer-1 blockchain. At the time of 
writing, the token is trading at $5.25, meaning it is expected to surge by 
approximately 90.5% to reach the expected peak. Realistic Targets For 2025

analyst Domba.eth took to X to share realistic price targets for 19 major 
cryptocurrencies ahead of the anticipated 2025 altcoin season. In line with 
Altcoin Daily’s projection, Domba.eth forecasts a relatively similar peak 
range for BTC, ETH, and BNB. Related Reading: Altcoin Season Index Spikes

projection also extends to cryptocurrencies not covered by Altcoin Daily,

between $300 and $500 during the upcoming altcoin season, suggesting a 
possible surge of 50% to 152% from its current price of $199.1. XRP, which 
recently saw a sharp rally above $3.5, is forecasted to rise between $3.2 and 
$4.7, assuming positive sentiment remains strong and legal clarity improves. 
Meanwhile, Cardano is expected to reach a range of $1.2 to $2.1, representing
