Abra Global CEO Projects Bitcoin Price to $350K, Ethereum to $8K This Cycle Amid Economic Shifts

Highlights:

• Barhydt predicts Bitcoin price will surge to $350K and Ethereum will reach $8K.
• He says Solana and SUI will also soar to new ATH due to strong adoption trends.
• Market liquidity boost from U.S. policies could fuel a crypto rally.

Bill Barhydt, CEO of Abra Global, recently posted his thoughts on the crypto cycle on X. He expects Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and XRP to hit new all-time highs this year. Barhydt believes Bitcoin price, now around $97,000, could rise to $350,000, and Ethereum will reach $8,000 this year.

Additionally, he expects Solana to climb to $900, surpassing VanEck’s $520 target. He also projects SUI to reach $25 this year, citing its link to Bitcoin. Barhydt suggests these targets could be 200% higher than current estimates.

My base case for for current crypto cycle (NFA)

Bitcoin – $350k
Ethereum – $8,000
Solana – $900
Sui – $25
High end of range is ~2x these values.

My model is simple. This administration wants interest rates much lower and they’ll do whatever they have to to achieve that. They…

Barhydt Sees Liquidity Surge Fueling a Crypto Bull Run

Barhydt expects the U.S. government to lower interest rates. He believes they will take any steps needed to do this. He also says the government must refinance over $7 trillion in debt and may introduce tax cuts. These moves will add more money to the market through quantitative easing (QE) or other ways. This extra liquidity could drive cryptocurrency prices higher.

Barhydt describes it as a “Cyclical Valhalla”—a powerful bull market driven by aggressive economic policies.

He stated:

“Cyclical Valhalla is coming. Those with brass balls will be rewarded accordingly. Don’t ape in based on my convictions. Figure out your conviction and act accordingly.”

Analyst Expects Bitcoin Price Dip Before Major Rally

Bitcoin is priced at $97,023, up 1% in 24 hours and 6.14% this week. With a $1.9 trillion market cap and 21 million supply, it remains dominant. Despite short-term losses, long-term outlooks stay positive.

Analyst Ali Martinez advises traders to wait before making big investments. In the past, the best time to buy Bitcoin was when traders had a 12% loss. They have a 0.21% profit right now, meaning prices could drop more before going up. 

Recently, Marathon CEO Fred Thiel predicted Bitcoin could double by year-end, reaching $150K—$200K due to institutional demand and better regulations. He also notes that big Bitcoin sales often attract buyers, keeping prices around $95,000–$100,000.

Crypto Market Struggles as Trump’s Tariff Moves Shake Investors

President Trump’s new tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China fueled trade war fears, impacting global and crypto markets. Bitcoin dropped to $95K, with altcoins facing further losses.

Trump paused tariffs on Mexico and Canada for 30 days, but the market stays weak. Some traders expect more drops, and new tariffs next week add to the uncertainty. U.S. jobs grew by 143,000 in January, below the expected 170,000, while the unemployment rate fell to 4%. Bitcoin remains down, and its future is unclear.

Other factors also contributed to Bitcoin’s struggles this month. Its price surged in January due to Bitcoin Reserve plans, but the lack of updates led to a decline. Additionally, new pro-crypto initiatives from the US Senate Banking Subcommittee failed to lift Bitcoin’s price, keeping the outlook uncertain.
