Peter Brandt Warns of Potential Major Crypto Crash in 2025
Brandt believes that Bitcoin may see a 50% correction, bringing its price down to about $50,000 from its current level near $100,000.
Veteran trader Peter Brandt, who has spent over 50 years analyzing markets, is sounding the alarm regarding the current state of the cryptocurrency market. Although Bitcoin recently broke through the $100,000 level and peaked at $108,000 in December 2024, Brandt believes a massive correction is coming in 2025.
Brandt believes that Bitcoin may see a 50% correction, bringing its price down to about $50,000 from its current level near $100,000. He cautions that many traders, especially those who have become over-leveraged during this bull market, will take a severe hit when the downturn hits.
Brandt is warning about much more than just Bitcoin. He believes that altcoins will be down 90% and meme coins will completely lose their value. In a tweet, he cautioned that many novice traders will “get too leveraged” and “miss the top,” with heavy losses in the correction.
Although Brandt is rather bearish about the future of Bitcoin, others still believe that Bitcoin will increase in the long run. For instance, some analysts predict that Bitcoin will go as high as $200,000 by 2026. Others are less optimistic and think that Bitcoin will increase to only $120,000 to $125,000 in the short term.
As one would expect from him, he sounded warnings about getting too excited. Brandt himself admitted owning both Bitcoin and Solana. However, he does not believe it will repeat Bitcoin’s explosive performance during its earlier years. The man joked about his investment rather than diving any deeper into cryptocurrencies. He compared that to some of the safest stocks, for example, that of Kimberly-Clark, home of Kleenex.
Brandt’s message reminds us of the risks involved with investing in extremely volatile markets such as crypto. While Bitcoin’s recent run-up has been thrilling, Brandt cautions, “Don’t get too over-leveraged and be ready for a correction at any moment.” As always, the crypto market is unpredictable so things can change quickly, which means being prepared is the best.
