JAKARTA - Bitcoin, which has a supply of 21 million BTC, recently set a new record at 107,000 US dollars (IDR 1.7 billion) per coin. Along with this increase, SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci believes that the price of Bitcoin could soar to 200.000 US dollars (IDR 3.2 billion) by 2025.
This statement was made by Scaramucci in a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal on December 17. The SkyBridge boss explained that this projection was driven by a series of more friendly crypto policies in the United States, which is believed to trigger a surge in demand.
According to Scaramucci, although Bitcoin's current market capitalization is already very large, the price of this digital asset still has the potential to grow rapidly. In fact, although many parties have started to feel late, he insists that those who have just bought Bitcoin are still "early" on the journey of the crypto asset.

Currently, Bitcoin is trading in the price range of 106,859 US dollars (Rp1.71 billion), with a 9.5% increase in the last 24 hours. On Monday, December 16, 2024, the price of Bitcoin reached a new record high of 107,822 (Rp1.72 billion) US dollars.
Not only that, Scaramucci also responded to the skepticism that arises among potential investors who feel it is too late. He stated that the price of Bitcoin is still far from its potential, and in the future, Bitcoin could become one of the main store of value, as he predicts it will be achieved in 2026.
However, Scaramucci did not escape criticizing the regulatory policy issued by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). He assessed that the SEC's decision, particularly regarding the postponement of the approval of the Bitcoin ETF, had hampered the price of Bitcoin to reach its proper value. According to him, the current price of Bitcoin is still in a position that should have been achieved in early 2022 if there were no regulatory barriers.
