Cryptocurrencies have not made much movement over the past few days as investors have adopted a cautious stance ahead of the July 9 tariff decision. On Tuesday, Bitcoin (BTC) traded mostly lower but still held its ground.

Bitcoin, which reached an all-time high in late May, has remained mostly above $100,000 over the past few weeks amid geopolitical tensions and tariff woes. However, geopolitical tensions have eased substantially, and hopes of a rate cut by the Federal Reserve have brightened lately. Market experts believe that Bitcoin has the potential to surpass $120,000 this year.

Given this situation, it would be ideal to invest in crypto-focused stocks. We have selected four stocks, namely CME Group Inc. CME, Accenture plc ACN, Visa Inc. V and PayPal Holdings PYPL. Each of these stocks has strong growth potential for 2025 and has seen positive earnings estimate revisions in the last 90 days.

Bitcoin has been rangebound over the past few sessions and hovering around $107,000 ahead of the July 9 tariff deadline. The cryptocurrency has recovered substantially after dropping below $100,000 for the first time in 45 days earlier last week, after the United States bombed Iran’s nuclear sites.

However, the tensions between Iran and Israel have eased substantially over the past week after President Donald Trump announced a fragile ceasefire. The Bitcoin rally has faced significant challenges lately, but it hasn’t stalled completely. Despite some profit bookings, the cryptocurrency continues to hold strong gains.

Tariff woes have eased substantially, with the United States and China expected to sign a trade deal soon, while investors wait for more trade deal announcements with other countries ahead of the July 8 deadline.

Market sentiment has also turned hopeful in recent weeks, with many expecting the Fed to restart interest rate cuts soon. Inflation has been cooling for the past three months, and a shrinking labor market has given the Federal Reserve enough reason to go for a rate cut. Several Fed officials have indicated over the past few weeks that a rate cut could be announced as early as July. Analysts suggest that a rate cut in the near future could pave the way for Bitcoin to surpass $120,000.
