Bitcoin’s foremost corporate and retail advocates — MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor and ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ author Robert Kiyosaki — both forecast that the world’s leading cryptocurrency could double in value by the close of 2025.
Their predictions emerge as Bitcoin trades around $111,000–$115,000, a decline from its peak of $126,000 earlier this month.

Michael Saylor’s $150,000 Projection
On the surface, Bitcoin is still in the process of recovering from the $19 billion shock liquidation that occurred across the crypto market on October 10. However, industry leaders remain optimistic about reaching new all-time highs by Christmas.
Speaking on CNBC, MicroStrategy’s Executive Chairman Michael Saylor emphasized that Bitcoin’s growth cycle is still intact despite temporary corrections.
“I believe Bitcoin will continue to climb. The volatility is decreasing as the industry becomes more structured,” Saylor stated.
He anticipates that Bitcoin could hit $150,000 by the end of 2025, referencing a general agreement among equity analysts who follow the company.
“Our expectation right now is around $150,000 by the end of this year,” he continued. “I have no reason to believe it won’t reach a million dollars per coin over the next four to eight years. My long-term outlook is for about a 30% annual increase for the next 20 years, leading us toward $20 million per Bitcoin.”
Saylor’s optimism aligns with MicroStrategy’s ongoing investment in Bitcoin. The company acquired 390 BTC in late October for approximately $43.4 million, boosting its total holdings to 640,808 BTC.

Nevertheless, MicroStrategy’s stock (MSTR) saw a nearly 13% drop this month, falling from $332 to $289, reflecting Bitcoin’s recent decline from its highs.
This drop illustrates the close correlation between MSTR’s valuation and overall sentiment in the cryptocurrency market.
Kiyosaki’s $200,000 Forecast
Meanwhile, Robert Kiyosaki expressed a similarly optimistic view on X (formerly Twitter). He disclosed holding “millions in Bitcoin” and projected prices could hit $200,000 by year-end.
Kiyosaki used his portfolio as an example to highlight the importance of emotional intelligence in investing. “Losers fear losing more than they desire wealth,” he wrote, arguing that the fear of short-term losses can obscure long-term potential gains.

His message found resonance with Bitcoin’s retail audience, especially in a tumultuous month that tested investors’ patience.
Kiyosaki’s emphasis on emotional control reflects a recurring theme in crypto cycles — resilience during downturns often precedes significant upward movements.

Market Context
Bitcoin’s current price hovers around $111,000, with trading volumes and futures funding rates significantly lower than in early October.
Institutional inflows appear steady, but reduced liquidity and targeted liquidations have heightened short-term risks.
Analysts view the pullback as a mid-cycle correction instead of a trend reversal. On-chain activity is on the rise, and exchange balances are decreasing — indicators of investor accumulation.
Saylor’s structured perspective and Kiyosaki’s behavioral insights both reflect a shared belief: Bitcoin’s long-term outlook remains positive.
Both anticipate substantial gains through 2025, despite macroeconomic uncertainties and fluctuating trading conditions.
