Despite the correction, VanEck is optimistic that Bitcoin will surpass $180,000 this year.


The price of Bitcoin (BTC) is correcting by 3.2% over the week, at the level of US$115 thousand. This figure is down 7.5% from its peak (ATH) of around US$124,000 achieved on Thursday (14/08), according to CoinMarketCap.
Despite the decline, VanEck, a global asset management firm worth US$133 billion, reaffirmed its belief that the price of Bitcoin could reach US$180,000 by the end of 2025.
This prediction appears in the Mid-August 2025 report "ChainCheck" which highlights institutional investment trends as well as Bitcoin's resilience amid various challenges. This is because VanEck assesses that investments from large corporations have become one of the main factors driving market optimism.
"Entering the autumn season, there are many risks and opportunities. The development of the global economy and the return of investor activity could strengthen Bitcoin's momentum or push for profit-taking. However, we maintain our target of US$180,000 by the end of the year," wrote VanEck in its report.
The firm also emphasizes that more than 90 percent of Bitcoin holdings on the network were already in profit before the price hit its all-time high.
Meanwhile, the influx of fresh funds from large companies is said to have succeeded in maintaining the stability of Bitcoin, although Ethereum is currently attracting a large amount of institutional capital.
