The year after the Bitcoin (BTC) halving is considered prominent for the king coin. Six months ago, BTC hit an all-time high of $73,750.07, even before the halving. The asset is trading 13% below this high at $63,676.27. Despite being in a rut, Bitcoin witnessed recovery as the asset rose by nearly 9% over the past week.
However, Bitcoin is expected to rise drastically in the coming months. Several institutions have predicted that BTC could surge to a high of $100K before 2025. The real question is how the asset could soar 58% as we inch closer to the end of the year.

Impact Of US Elections
But thatâs not all. The cryptocurrency industry may see a radical shift after the next US elections. In a recent interview with Bloomberg, SkyBridge Capitalâs Anthony Scaramucci identified two key factors that would contribute to Bitcoinâs ascent to $100K. This includes lower interest rates and more specific industry regulations following the November US election. He added:
âWe are going to get pro-cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, and stablecoin legislation in the first part of the next congressional term in the US. At the same time, youâre intersecting with rate cuts from the Federal Reserve.â
Bitcoin Cycle
Furthermore, the typical Bitcoin cycle begins around 170 days following the halving. With over 155 days since the April 19, 2024 halving, it appears that there are just two weeks left before the bull cycle resumes. According to the same data point, if this rally starts in the next two weeks, it would peak about 480 days after the halving, meaning that August 12, 2025, is when Bitcoin might reach its maximum.
