How Major Institutions Got Bitcoin Wrong in 2025



Last year's Bitcoin forecasts from major institutions largely missed the mark—especially those bullish predictions targeting USD 200,000 to USD 250,000. The reality? Market volatility and repeated deleveraging events kept derailing any sustained rallies before they could gain real momentum.

The gap between expectations and outcomes reveals something important: long-term Bitcoin thesis might be solid, but short-term price action is far messier than many predicted. Institutions underestimated how leverage unwinding and market corrections would compound during the year's key rallies.
