As reported by Benzinga, Bitcoin's price hovering around $95,000 in early 2025 has brought renewed attention to Peter Thiel's bubble theory. Thiel, co-founder of PayPal, discussed his framework for identifying market bubbles at the Yale Political Union in October. He highlighted three indicators: extreme abstraction, unsustainable exponential growth, and psychosocial mania. These insights are particularly relevant as the cryptocurrency market reaches new heights. Thiel's Founders Fund invested $200 million in Bitcoin and Ethereum in late 2023, but he later expressed skepticism about Bitcoin's future growth. Despite this, PayPal continues to expand its cryptocurrency services, reflecting Bitcoin's evolution into a mainstream financial asset.
