After Bitcoin dropped to $92,000 on January 9, 2025, the question on everyone's lips was: Is the Bitcoin Bull Run coming to an end? Analysts have examined the issue and present 3 factors that prove the BTC rally is far from over.
The year 2025 could very well start with a bang for Bitcoin, thanks to a massive injection of liquidity from the FED, which could propel BTC to a new ATH in March 2025.
The IMF, like a perplexed teacher, advises Kenya to abandon its old recipes for a fresher and more digestible crypto-regulation, not forgetting to eliminate the scammers from the menu.
The evolution of the price of bitcoin in 2025 will depend on three main parameters: macroeconomics, geopolitics, and bitcoin's ability to attract investors.
The year 2025 begins under the sign of instability for the crypto market. After briefly exceeding the symbolic threshold of 100,000 dollars on January 7, Bitcoin experienced a dramatic reversal, falling to 92,500 dollars in just a few hours. This sudden decline cannot be explained by a technical factor but rather by major macroeconomic elements. Investors are closely monitoring the monetary policy of the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed), whose decisions directly influence financial markets. So far, many had anticipated a drop in interest rates as early as the first quarter of 2025. However, the latest economic data in the United States indicate stronger-than-expected growth, which challenges this assumption. As a result, markets are reassessing their expectations and adjusting their positions. This uncertainty has triggered a wave of liquidations that has contributed to Bitcoin's decline.
As the U.S. dollar index (DXY) reaches new highs, bitcoin struggles to maintain its critical support. Investors are closely watching the movements of the DXY and the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve, anticipating a short-term target of $80,000 for the queen of crypto.

Bitcoin is facing significant downward pressure as markets react to uncertainties in U.S. politics. A sharp drop of $5,000 in a single day suggests a possible test of $88,000 in the coming weeks, according to analysts.
Financial markets have been shaken by a wave of tension, causing a sharp correction in bitcoin (BTC) and major altcoins. In just a few hours, the flagship crypto fell below the critical threshold of $100,000, while Ethereum (ETH) collapsed below $3,400. This pullback occurs against a backdrop of deteriorating global economic conditions. Several factors explain this storm in the crypto market: on the one hand, the rise in U.S. Treasury yields, and on the other, the monetary policy of the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) continues to weigh heavily on market confidence. Meanwhile, the global economic environment remains marked by additional stress factors. In light of these disturbances, the crypto market is undergoing a period of high volatility, where investor caution is mingled with panic movements. This correction now raises the question of a potential short-term rebound or a continuation of the bearish trend due to an uncertain macroeconomic environment.
Bitcoin is gaining ground around the world. However, the idea of seeing this cryptocurrency appear in the vaults of a central bank may seem crazy. Yet, it is the scenario mentioned by Aleš Michl, the governor of the Czech National Bank, who is considering diversifying its reserves with Bitcoin. Why such boldness? Let's find out.
The convergence between artificial intelligence (AI) and asset tokenization is set to redefine the global financial landscape in 2025, according to Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise. This major transformation should particularly benefit small businesses, paving the way for a new "long-tail capital market."
Bitcoin continues to ignite passions. Just yesterday, crossing the $100,000 mark seemed like a utopia, yet the flagship crypto once again proves that it has not finished surprising us. While some traders are now considering a target around $138,000, others highlight an unexpected return of the "Coinbase premium" to a neutral level. Should we see this as the beginning of a new surge or simply a respite before the storm?
Since January 2023, the crypto market has been experiencing a bullish phase marked by a significant appreciation of Bitcoin and altcoins. This dynamic is based on several factors, including accelerating institutional adoption, a massive influx of capital, and an overall optimistic market sentiment. Additionally, there are anticipations surrounding the approval of new crypto ETFs and potential favorable regulations that boost investor confidence. However, according to CryptoQuant, this euphoria could soon reach a critical point. The analytics firm identifies several technical signals indicating that the market has entered its final phase. Among these is the significant increase in the volume of Bitcoin traded over the past month, which reached 36% in the fourth quarter of 2024. This phenomenon, observed during previous market peaks, suggests a possible correction in the short to medium term. Yet, this warning is not unanimously accepted. Institutions such as Steno Research and VanEck adopt a more optimistic view. According to them, the bullish trend could continue until the end of 2025, driven by increasing adoption and evolving regulatory frameworks. VanEck even estimates that Bitcoin could reach $180,000, while Ethereum may exceed $6,000 by the end of next year. In light of these divergent forecasts, a question arises: should investors expect new price spikes or, on the contrary, take their profits before a possible market reversal?
Between Trumpian euphoria and the cold mechanics of the Fed, bitcoin swings, a fragile king of a kingdom of uncertainties.
The year 2025 starts on uncertain grounds for bitcoin. After reaching a peak of $108,000, the cryptocurrency quickly lost ground, falling back below the symbolic threshold of $100,000. This level, both psychological and strategic, has become a fragile equilibrium point where buyers and sellers are at odds. On one side, optimists believe this consolidation phase paves the way for a new bullish impulse, with potential recovery towards record levels. On the other side, proponents of a bearish scenario anticipate a more pronounced correction, which could bring BTC down to $76,000, a level corresponding to a key support zone. Beyond these contrasting forecasts, several factors contribute to the uncertainty. Additionally, macroeconomic tensions, particularly the upcoming decisions from the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed), add further pressure on investors. In light of this uncertain climate, the coming weeks are poised to be critical for bitcoin. The outcome of this battle at $100,000 could well dictate market trends for the remainder of the year.
For the first time in 2025, bitcoin has crossed the $102,000 mark today, marking a significant turning point for the world's best-known cryptocurrency. This spectacular rise is attributed to 4 key factors that have converged to propel the price of bitcoin to new heights.
Crypto is going through a pivotal period, and industry analysts are holding their breath. A historical signal, observed only twice in the last eight years, seems to indicate an imminent altseason. For investors and crypto enthusiasts, this news could well redefine short-term opportunities.
Bitcoin continues its bullish momentum for the seventh consecutive day, settling at $99,513 this Monday, while Ethereum consolidates its position above $3,600.

Amid revolutionary announcements, technological developments, and regulatory upheavals, the crypto ecosystem continues to prove that it is both a territory of limitless innovations and a battleground of regulatory and economic conflicts.

Bitcoin reaches $99,562, breaks a key resistance level, and is charging straight towards $100,000! However, what surprise awaits BTC? A rise to $120,000 or an imminent correction to $92,000? Let's explore technical trends and perspectives together.
Financial markets are on the brink of a new cycle of monetary easing, marked by strategic decisions from major central banks. Following the American Federal Reserve, which began reducing its key interest rates last September, it is now the People's Bank of China (PBOC) that is preparing to take the lead. Beijing plans to lower its interest rates further to stimulate the economy and counter the heightened deflationary pressure on the yuan, a phenomenon that worries Chinese authorities and weighs on investor confidence. In light of this situation, Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX and macroeconomic analyst, anticipates a chain reaction in the financial markets. He asserts that the combination of a looser monetary policy in China and a favorable environment in the United States will enhance the appeal of alternative assets, particularly bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. According to him, this injection of liquidity, coupled with a reorientation of institutional capital, could trigger a massive rally in the cryptocurrency market during the year 2025.
The year 2024 has been marked by a spectacular rise in the value of cryptocurrencies, with Bitcoin reaching an historic peak of $108,135. However, this meteoric growth has also led to a troubling increase in kidnappings and extortions targeting crypto traders and investors.

Bitcoin reached a historic milestone in 2024. In just one year, $19 trillion flowed through its network, an absolute record that marks the end of two years of declining transaction volumes. This spectacular recovery reflects the return of investor confidence, driven by several major events. The approval of Bitcoin ETFs in the United States facilitated the entry of institutional capital, while the April 2024 halving reinforced the scarcity of BTC, which fuels demand. Meanwhile, the network has significantly strengthened, with a hashrate at an unprecedented level of 1,000 exahashes per second. Behind these staggering figures, a shift is taking place: Bitcoin is consolidating its status both as a store of value and as a global transactional infrastructure, raising questions about its future and its role in traditional finance.

The Bitcoin network has just reached a historic milestone, achieving a record hashrate of 1,000 exahashes per second (EH/s) on January 3, 2025.

Over the span of a year, the network's hashing capacity has doubled, increasing from 510 EH/s in January 2024 to this unprecedented level, illustrating the scale of investments in the industry.
