PlanB's prediction that Bitcoin would reach $270,000 by December 31, 2025 did not come true. Bitcoin's best close before the deadline was $124,720 on October 6, 2025, 54% below the target. PlanB made the call on The Daily Hodl on February 3, 2025, when Bitcoin was at $97,677. The target needed a 176% rise in eleven months.

So that’s the absolute minimum Bitcoin price that I expect in 2025: $270,000.
PlanB pointed to Bitcoin's monthly relative strength index approaching 80 and said past bull-market peaks saw several months with the RSI above 80. He said the average monthly return in those periods was over 40%, and that he expects at least three such months, which by his arithmetic would take the price from $100,000 to $270,000.
