Jason Ficino, X Hall of Flame

Cryptocurrency’s sluggish start to 2025 doesn’t worry Jason Pizzino, co-founder of cryptocurrency education company TIA Crypto. He is optimistic that the market can turn around before the end of the quarter.

“It could still be a green quarter and an uptick from January 1 to March 31, but right now it’s not hitting the ball with what people were hoping for in the final cycle of 2021,” Pizzino told the Hall of Fame. flame.

When asked if the expected cryptocurrency bull market could become an awkward non-event after all the hype, the Gold Coast-based Australian cryptocurrency influencer admits it’s possible, but doubts it will happen.

“Any scenario is possible. Somewhat more likely. I think the chances of not going anywhere all year are slim,” says the avid surfer.

But traders trying to time the market based on the last cycle may be in for a shock, Pizzino says.

“What most people expect usually doesn’t happen, or when it does, it doesn’t happen for very long.”

As for how long the bull market will last, Pizzino, who has over 320,000 YouTube subscribers, says he will find out when his cryptocurrency YouTube views start to plummet. He jokes that his channel views plummet along with the price of Bitcoin.

“Having a YouTube channel is another signal in itself because it allows you to gauge analytics and metrics about how busy the market is,” says Pizzino.

“You’ll see views go down, subscribers go down, and it just keeps happening,” he adds.

How did Jason Pizzino grow his X following?

Pizzino runs TIA Crypto with his brother Michael and offers cryptocurrency education but no financial advice. Because, as he put it, regulators “don’t like it.”

With the company’s community of members interested in cryptocurrency growing, boasting a following of 320,000 on its YouTube channel and regularly posting videos on Bitcoin and other markets, Pizzino now has a following of 125,100. I witnessed the following information pouring into X’s account:

Pizzino said most of his followers came over the “last six to 12 months” of the 2021 bull market, particularly around the time Bitcoin hit its all-time high of $69,000 in November 2021.

What type of content does Jason Pizzino provide?

Pizzino’s content primarily focuses on Bitcoin chart analysis. He also covers the US stock market and the Australian and US real estate markets, which he said are very important to cryptocurrency performance.

“These are fundamental assets that we must follow. “They have the most money in the world,” he says.

“If these assets are not performing well, there is little chance that other assets will be performing well,” he adds.

In terms of other cryptocurrency accounts he enjoys, Pizzino likes crypto trader Eric Crown’s technical trading analysis, “TradeTravelChill”‘s cryptocurrency educational content, and of course his brother Michael Pizzino, who he jokingly admits has a bit of an edge. him.

“He is much smarter than me, so his technical trading skills are much better than mine,” he laughs.

Predictions for Jason Pizzino

Pizzino is not a fan of price targets, and it was pretty clear in his eyes when he was asked about price targets in an interview.

He says he prefers to think of it as a ladder rather than seeing it as a “final destination” and selling everything at that price. That means once you reach this price, focus on the next steps.

But we still have some numbers from him.

“Bitcoin has at least $120,000 in this cycle, regardless of whether this cycle means 2025 is the end of 2026,” Pizzino says.

“I think ETH will have at least $5,300 for this cycle,” he added.
