Some experts believe Bitcoin’s price will fall to $10,000 or less in 2023, while others suggest that Bitcoin’s sentiment-driven price actions render predictions futile.
Several analysts who have previously predicted Bitcoin’s price with mixed success offer their take on the asset’s performance in 2023 in the wake of 2022’s spectacular implosions and dwindling trading volumes.
Tim Draper Leads Bullish Bitcoin Price PredictionsBitcoin bull Tim Draper said that the alignment of females’ crypto spending habits to their retail habits would increase wallet adoption and drive Bitcoin to $250,000 in 2023. Draper predicted in 2019 that Bitcoin would reach $250,000 by the end of 2022.
Draper started as a venture capitalist, investing in Tesla, Twitch, and, most recently, several crypto companies, including Coinbase and Tezos.
He shot to crypto prominence in 2014 after paying $19 million for 30,000 Bitcoins seized from Silk Road.

Edward Moya of Oanda, a forex broker that offers crypto trading via a contract with a client who receives revenue through an asset’s price change, believes that Bitcoin’s price already reflects most of the fallout from 2022 and will only go lower if another major crypto company collapses, or if Wall Street starts a mass exodus from risky assets.
Luno’s vice president of corporate development Vijay Ayyar predicts a bottoming period for Bitcoin if the market absorbs the selling pressure created by Bitcoin miner capitulation. Public crypto miners face pressure from creditors as bitcoin’s price and rising energy costs threaten miners’ abilities to service debt.
