Bitcoin’s price surged to all-time highs in 2025 amid expectations of pro-crypto policies under the Trump administration but has since collapsed into bear market territory. The crash follows a year of regulatory optimism, with investors betting on deregulation and institutional adoption boosting crypto markets before sentiment reversed sharply. Analysts attribute the downturn to macroeconomic pressures, profit-taking after record gains, and delayed policy clarity despite political promises of crypto-friendly reforms.
