Changpeng Zhao, co-founder of Binance, told listeners during a voice AMA on Binance Square on Wednesday that Bitcoin will reach $200,000 given enough time. He linked the outlook to more favorable crypto policy following President Trump’s re-election and stronger U.S. equity markets boosting overall investor confidence.
Zhao said the combination of policy shifts and equity gains has helped reduce regulatory pressure on the crypto industry. He added that growing institutional adoption and ties with Wall Street may change how Bitcoin behaves in markets.
Zhao suggested these changes could weaken Bitcoin’s traditional four-year halving cycle, noting that deeper macro integration may lead Bitcoin to trade more like a global risk asset and less like a cyclical retail asset. Analysts such as Willy Woo and QuintenFrancois have previously argued the four-year cycle is ending, and some have urged investors to “ignore the four-year cycle.”
Tom Lee of Fundstrat first presented a $200,000 Bitcoin target in October 2025 when Bitcoin traded near $111,000, citing expected Federal Reserve rate cuts and improving liquidity. At the time of the report, Bitcoin was noted at $94,966, up 3.2% over 24 hours amid volatile ETF flows and rising institutional interest.
Veteran trader Peter Brandt pushed back on firm price forecasts, warning against conviction-driven targets and stating, “no faith in any given trade or opinion.” A site element in the original coverage included an “Add us on Google” image link for readers to follow the service on Google.
