Jim Cramer wants you to buy Bitcoin in 2025 but not Microstrategy, what to do?
Last Updated on 29 January 2025 by CryptoTips.eu
If there was one certainty in recent years, it was that you could count on Jim Cramer, the host of the Mad Money show on CNBC, to tell you when to sell or buy your Bitcoins. Whether he would be right depended on which year we were in.
Bull
In 2020 and 2021, Jim Cramer was a real Bitcoin bull. He bought, saw his initial investment double and then sold it at the end of 2021 for about $50,000.
After that he predicted several times that Bitcoin would go to zero. Funnily enough, just about every prediction since then has coincided with a new bull run for Bitcoin.

Crypto fans therefore called Jim the ultimate counter-indicator in 2022 and 2023. If Jim said Bitcoin was going to do poorly, you should have bought. At least, that was the opinion of many on social media.

We won’t comment on whether this is scientific, but a lot of jokes have been made about it in those years.
In November 2023, he changed his mind again and said Bitcoin would go higher. That happened too.

BREAKING NEWS:
Jim Cramer is Ultra Bearish on #Bitcoin pic.twitter.com/8nP1bi8UrM
In 2024, Cramer spoke very little about Bitcoin, until November when he interviewed President Trump at the opening of the American stock exchanges and asked a question about what Trump planned to do with Bitcoin. The latter gave a rather vague answer and Cramer gave no further indication on price.
This week, Cramer again gave bitcoin advice. According to him, it is important to have Bitcoin in your investment portfolio now, but be careful with Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy (the largest corporate Bitcoin whale in the world), because according to him those shares are overbought and too highly valued.
We’ll see if Cramer gets it right in 2025.
