JPMorgan is making some pretty bold predictions about Bitcoin, saying it could reach $126,000 by the end of this year. Their reasoning is actually kind of interesting and has to do with how much calmer Bitcoin trading has become lately.

🇺🇸 JP MORGAN HAS SAID THAT BITCOIN
IS UNDERVALUED COMPARED TO GOLD. pic.twitter.com/k5zifR8uaJ— Ash Crypto (@Ashcryptoreal) August 28, 2025
The bank’s analysts noticed that Bitcoin’s volatility dropped to around 30%, which is way down from the crazy 60% swings we saw at the beginning of 2025. When something becomes less volatile, it usually means it’s getting more mature and stable, which is exactly what institutions like to see.
What’s really catching their attention is how Bitcoin compares to gold now. The volatility ratio between Bitcoin and gold hit 2.0, which is the lowest it’s ever been on record. Basically, this means Bitcoin now only requires about twice the risk as gold when you’re putting together an investment portfolio.
JPMorgan’s managing director Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou thinks this shows Bitcoin is seriously undervalued right now. They calculated that Bitcoin would need to gain about 13% in market cap to match gold’s $5 trillion private investment market when you adjust for risk. With Bitcoin’s current market cap at $2.2 trillion, that math puts the fair value around $126,000.
Corporate companies are also buying Bitcoin like crazy, now controlling over 6% of the total supply. Companies like KindlyMD are even filing to raise $5 billion specifically to buy more Bitcoin for their reserves.
Conclusion
JPMorgan’s Bitcoin prediction shows how lower volatility could attract more institutional money. If companies keep buying Bitcoin like gold, prices might rise significantly this year.
