The movements of Bitcoin rhythm the markets, between phases of euphoria and brutal corrections. After a record of 108,268 dollars in December 2024, the crypto is undergoing a period of consolidation. However, a major technical indicator, the 52-week Simple Moving Average (SMA), fuels speculation. According to analyst Dave the Wave, Bitcoin could reach a new peak by July 2025, a pattern already observed during previous bullish cycles. Thus, if this prediction is validated, it would mark a key milestone in the current cycle. Nevertheless, the market's evolution remains uncertain, between technical signals and external factors likely to influence price trajectories.
Bitcoin, this cryptocurrency with growing popularity, intrigues as much as it divides. For Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan, this digital currency has no place.

Technical innovations, the rise of new protocols, and the growing interest of institutions have laid the foundations for a booming decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape. At the heart of this whirlwind, Bitcoin stands out owing to its status as a "safe haven" in the sector. However, its potential remains underutilized in the DeFi space.

Investor appetite for altcoins continues to grow, as evidenced by the spectacular increase in their trading volume on Binance, which now accounts for 78% of the platform's activity. This record level raises questions: is the market on the verge of a new bull run for altcoins? According to Burakkesmeci, an analyst at CryptoQuant, this development is a strong signal that reinforces the hypothesis of a bullish market in 2025. However, despite this enthusiasm, some indicators remain mixed. Bitcoin still dominates the market with 57.74% of the total market capitalization, and the Altcoin Season Index, down to 46 out of 100, does not yet confirm a significant shift towards altcoins. In the face of these contradictory signals, the current dynamics reflect more of a gradual rise in power than a real immediate cycle change.

The crypto market evolves with the fluctuations, swinging between bursts of enthusiasm and periods of doubt. However, some assets manage to maintain their appeal despite the prevailing volatility. XRP perfectly illustrates this resilience, showing a clear resurgence in activity following a phase of uncertainty. Over 2 million transactions were recorded in a single day, a level rarely reached in recent months. This explosion in transaction volume goes beyond a mere usage indicator. It reflects a strengthening of the network, confirming renewed interest from investors and market players. At the same time, the price of XRP has stabilized above the key supports of $2.30 and $2.20, indicating bullish potential. If this momentum continues, XRP could regain a central place in the crypto transaction landscape and strengthen its long-term adoption.

Dogecoin is going through a decisive phase. For several days, its price has been fluctuating around $0.33, a key level that attracts the attention of analysts and investors. This threshold relies on a major support line, seen as a bulwark against a possible more pronounced correction. So far, DOGE is holding steady, but for how much longer? According to Trader Tardigrade, a closely followed analyst, the crypto may be finalizing a "selling climax bottom," a technical structure that often precedes a bullish reversal. However, if this scenario is confirmed, it would mark the end of the correction and pave the way for a significant rebound. Meanwhile, whales are heavily accumulating tokens, which strengthens the hypothesis of an imminent recovery. For DOGE, the stakes are high: maintaining its support and initiating a bullish trend before the market changes direction.

The history of financial markets is marked by breakthroughs, those moments when an asset or an innovation disrupts established rules. 2024 will be remembered as the year when Bitcoin definitively crossed a milestone with the rise of spot ETFs. Long awaited, these financial products attracted record inflows, with $129 billion in assets under management in less than a year. From their launch, they generated unprecedented enthusiasm, allowing institutional investors to access Bitcoin in a regulated and secure framework. However, the impact goes beyond the numbers. Bitcoin is no longer just a speculative asset. It now competes with gold as a store of value. In November, BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF surpassed its gold-backed equivalent, a strong symbol of the changing perception among investors. As prospects for 2025 take shape, one question dominates: can this momentum be sustained? Between market consolidation, a possible expansion towards other cryptos like Solana and XRP, and the potential entry of new players like Vanguard, the year 2025 could very well redefine the balance of power in the financial markets.
Bitcoin is facing a new setback, shaken by a market that is reevaluating its expectations. Indeed, the publication of a solid economic report in the United States has strengthened the dollar, which reduces the likelihood of an imminent interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve. Such a reaction has led to a correction below $93,000. This has temporarily stalled the bullish momentum of crypto. However, Grayscale remains confident and views this pullback as mere turbulence rather than a reversal of trend. According to Zach Pandl, head of research at the company, the strength of the dollar and the restrictive monetary policy are temporarily weighing on the market, but the fundamentals of Bitcoin remain strong. With rising institutional adoption and a changing regulatory environment, the bullish trajectory seems intact despite short-term fluctuations.
