So, as of May 21, 2025, Bitcoin has officially broken its previous all-time record, hitting around $109,800 before settling back to about $109,400. This jump comes after a solid recovery from April’s drop when it was around $75,000, which is a 47% increase in just over a month.
There are a few things driving this uptick:
Institutional Money Flow: Spot Bitcoin ETFs are experiencing some serious net inflows, which shows that big players are getting back into the game.
Political Moves: The U.S. Senate’s push for a bill to create a stablecoin regulatory framework is seen as a big thumbs up for the crypto space.
Strategic Bitcoin Reserve: In March 2025, Trump signed an executive order to set up a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, making the U.S. a significant Bitcoin holder and showing government backing for digital currencies.
With all this happening, I’d love to know what you guys think:
Do you reckon this is just the start of a long bull run, or are we due for a pullback?
How do you see the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve affecting Bitcoin’s value in the long run?
Any particular price points you’re keeping an eye on in the near future?
There were three times that bitcoin get to all time high few hours ago. The first was $109500. The second was $109800 which occurred like almost 2 hours before the first one. But the all time high right now later occurs after bitcoin fall to $106080 and rose up back to get to $110725 which is the all time high right now.
Yes but the price we are going to may not be much significant anymore. I may be wrong.
Probably as more countries will also want to have bitcoin reserve
$139000 to $150000. Although my prediction two years ago was $170000.
in 2021 it reached $70k because if you look at the costs of mining around the world, there were places that had mining costs of $75k/btc in 2021, meaning those people seen anything below $75k as discount, meaning some were willing to buy anything below $75k and see it as discount. which meant 2021 healthily tested near the worlds mining cost ceiling
this year that ceiling is above $400k already
so although some thing $150k is a health 2x last cycle ATH...
the potential ceiling to test is much higher
i personally thing estimates of $150k are too low, and other influencers $1m is too high and totally pulled out their asses, but $400k is a fair figure thats backed by markets stats of world mining cost ceilings
Everything is coming into place.
I do believe that we will be seeing mega bullrun, institutional money are no joke and if we got so many inflow of capital from passive investors, then expect the price to go up explosively.
I honestly watching for $200k at the end of the year, I think it can happen.
A big correction might be delayed a little. There might be little corrections every now and then probably because of whales taking profit. We have seen how the price dips all of a sudden but followed by an equally sudden rise. I am looking at this as a sign that the buying pressure can easily absorb any selling pressure thrown at the market right now. The demand is so strong. And it might not stop anytime soon. There is so much to look forward to even in the near term. The US has not even begun to acquire Bitcoin.
Correction will be pretty much normal especially in a market like the crypto market. The only question is how deep those corrections will be. Even we are in a bull run, we don't expect the market to go up, and up, because along the way, there will always be sellers that will take profit. It's a matter of "Is the correction a healthy one or not?"
No idea TBH, but many look at it as a positive thing so if that happens, since the sentiment around it is positive, there's a huge chance that it will pump the price of Bitcoin. let's take note that the market is heavily driven by the sentiments of the investors. of course, there will always be manipulation, but for most of the time, sentiments of the retail investors drive the market. As for the specific price targets that I'm watching, I predicted in the past that $115,000-$120,000 will be the peak price of it, but looking at the market, it seems like we are heading at around $130,000-$140,000, and I will not be surprised if we will reach as high as $150,000.
Bitcoin at $200,000? Possible, but as somebody that's conservative with his predictions, I don't think that it will happen... at least this year.
Without the fear, the market will rise, and nothing will stop the liquidity from pouring in properly.
I hope we won't see anything preventing us to achieving a new ATH
And exactly yesterday been Thursday, which also happens to be "Bitcoin Pizza Day" Bitcoin just crossed another new All-Time-High again worth $111,935 per BTC at exactly 6:35p.m Nigerian Time as shown in the image below, but also 5:35p.m Universal Time. Which is literally a good sign as we continue this current bull period. Because with the momentum to which I see Bitcoin skyrocketing this period, I won't be surprised if it crosses $120k per BTC, because such speculation is highly possible at this moment, which will be of bigger advantage to all of us who had held Bitcoin all this while.
Bitcoin Breaks $109K ATH Is This the Start of the Next Mega Bull Run? I dont know bro it could be yes it could be another yes with little I said No hahaha.
The truth is we gonna see it this year bitcoin already reach new ath at 111K level my target for this year or next year still the same is 150K heck I also want altcoin rise soon
We've already reach new all time high, so there's nothing preventing us, unless we average investors stop pouring our money but I doubt that. We are in the bull run and so with that our mindset is to continue to hold and not sell. On the other hand, just go accumulate more if we have the money. Just do what's best - DCA grind another for the next six months and then see how it goes. Liquidity will always be there though, as there are a lot of investors or traders around the world. And I think there will still be a big news coming in that will really push the price around $150k-$180k in the last quarter. So for now take advantage of it and wait for the peak price of Bitcoin as what the OP says is true that we will see a mega bull run this cycle.
There's going to be a correction but it's not certain because of the known factors that is thought to be the reason why price is pumping. I said before that the bull price for this year could be between $120k - 150k, so if price doesn't correct before continuing the move to the upside, then we could see more bull movement for this year but next year could be when the major correction is going to happen.
The $200k that users are generally mentioning is not the same as "Mega Bull Run", it is a small and regular bull run which I think is possible this year. But a Mega Bull Run is what we had in 2017 where price went from $1k to $20k (20x rise) so anything below reaching $2 million (20x $100k) is not a Mega Bull Run
BTC hit an all-time high for 2 days in a row, the first was 110,000, the second was 111,970, but today it experienced a slight correction of 108k. I am still confused about where BTC is going, is 120k the last point for BTC or maybe it will reach 150k. But strangely is that ETH currently doesn't seem to follow the BTC trend. Last year, when BTC reached ATH, ETH was in the 4k range, which I thought would reach ATH, but instead it experienced a very sharp decline and when BTC experienced a new ATH, ETH was still at 2,700. The question is, is this bullrun all popular coins following BTC?
I am sure that the correction will eventually come, but we have no idea when, and we have no idea how low. Like will it be this week? Will it be next week? Will it go back to 100k levels, will it go back to 90k? Will it go down even more? Will it be red for a week then be better, will it be red for just a day or a month?
We have none of these information. All we know is "it will not keep going up like this forever, so we will have correction eventually". And with that, it's always scary to keep holding, because it may keep going up a bit more before it goes down, but it may not neither, so it's hard to hold it at the moment. We should consider what we can get and would be better for all of us if we didn't starting selling already.
There has been a small dip, which I wouldn't even call a correction, it seems, caused by Trump's announcement to impose 50% tariffs on the EU. This negatively affected the stock markets and bitcoin somewhat, but it is at levels that if it were not for that news we could consider normal volatility. I believe that unless this or other news affects the markets very negatively as happened with the announcement of the tariffs previously, the next months will be of clear rise.
I remember Mark Hougan and Robert Kiyosaki predicts that this $200k which also can be considered as Mega Bull Run would gonna happen this year. So hopefully just like what happen from the past like year 2017 which its goes up to $20k would gonna happen to. Since this is provably amazing achievement what Bitcoin could ever get again especially that it can possibly strengthen up the wants of state and also for other counties to adopt and pass those bill to create their Bitcoin reserves.
$1k to $20k rise when December month came last 2017 is amazing situation happened before, so lets look forward for more updates if we could see a same like situation this year.
The both because for the fact that the market is bullish doesn't mean that it won't undergo some corrections. Corrections are inevitable because of market sentiments which means that as more inflows are making the market to become bullish, that is how traders are selling which makes the price to experience corrections and since bitcoin is not a stable coin, the activity in the market always have impact immediately so when there is outflows, the market bleeds but after then it rises again after some investors seizes the opportunity of a correction to buy more bitcoins at cheap prices.
Corrections are a normal state for bitcoin whose price always fluctuates. The market strengthens and hits new ATHs due to high inflows - while corrections are due to higher selling pressure. I am not surprised why the market corrected after the ATH - but the continuous rise without stopping is definitely a surprise.
This a big bullish start - no, the market is still on the same track since the price exceeds the 2021 ATH. The market has remained bullish since then - we were even at $70K+ when the market bottomed out a while ago. Further ATHs are expected - of course as long as support can be maintained.
