Bitcoin’s bull run is going to continue as fundamental stars start to align. That’s according to analysts at research and brokerage firm Bernstein, who said on Monday that investors should be prepared for the next leg of the bull rally in Bitcoin and equities related to the alpha crypto. Bitcoin Has More Room To Run Bernstein analysts Gautam Chhugani, Mahika Sapra, and Sanskar Chindalia believe that the current bull market started in Q4 of 2023 following the anticipation of spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund approval in the United States, driving the price of BTC from $25,000 levels to past $46,000 by the time the funds started trading on Jan. 11, 2024. According to Bernstein, the massive inflows into the spot ETFs created the next tailwind. Their unprecedented success was not priced in, and Bitcoin skyrocketed to a record high of about $74,000 before the bulls took a temporary break. Finally, the victory of pro-crypto Donald Trump in the November presidential election further spurred the next huge bullish impulse following his campaign promises to make the U.S. the world’s crypto capital and establish a national Bitcoin stockpile. At the time, Bitcoin hit its historic high of $108,786 on Trump’s swearing-in day. “The next leg of the Bitcoin bull market is loading up with a confluence of several positive catalysts,” the analysts wrote. They think that the Crypto Task Force, led by Trump’s AI and crypto Czar David Sacks, will deliver the National Bitcoin Reserve with the directive of the president. Other Bitcoin Tailwinds That Could Drive Prices Higher In 2025 Bernstein strategists further added that Abu Dhabi’s sovereign wealth fund purchasing Bitcoin via the exchange-traded funds was bullish for the foremost crypto. Moreover, the new Trump regime recently announced a sovereign wealth fund (SWF). They also highlighted Strategy’s (formerly MicroStrategy) recent $742 million BTC purchase, taking its total stash to 478,740 BTC, worth around $45 billion at current market prices. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s repeal of SAB 121, a move that now allows crypto custody by banks, and strong year-to-date Bitcoin ETF inflows of nearly $5 billion are other catalysts noted by Bernstein. “The confluence of adoption by banks, institutional investors, corporates and eventually sovereigns (directly or via sovereign funds) is positioning Bitcoin as the clear challenger to gold,” the report said. “With Bitcoin at $2 trillion market value vs. $18 trillion market value of proven gold reserves, we see asymmetric upside for Bitcoin.” The Bernstein analysts have previously forecasted that the Bitcoin price would be valued at $200,000 per coin by the end of this year.

Samson Mow: $BTC's range-bound price suggests artificial suppression At Consensus Hong Kong 2025, Jan3 CEO Samson Mow suggested that Bitcoin's (BTC) recent price consolidation appears manufactured, Cointelegraph reported. He noted that BTC has peaked and remained in a tight trading range, which "doesn't look natural." He added that despite strong institutional and retail accumulation, including U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs and Strategy buying more BTC than is mined daily, BTC's price remains stagnant. Mow argued that significant selling pressure is counteracting this demand. He also pointed to FTX Exchange's ongoing creditor repayments, which are based on BTC'S 2022 price of around $20,000, as a possible factor adding to selling pressure.

Bitcoin struggles to hold gains, faces risk of drop to $92K Glassnode co-founders Yann Allemann and Jan Happel, through their X account Negentropic, highlighted Bitcoin's $BTC recent rebound from $93,500 to $95,000. However, each recovery is weakening, indicating low spot trading volume. The Risk Index signals further downside pressure, with Bitcoin vulnerable to a drop to $92,000 unless it reclaims the $97,000–$98,500 range.

A wallet associated with the now-bankrupt crypto exchange FTX moved 0.3 Bitcoin, worth around $29,000, in three separate transactions early Monday, according to Arkham Intelligence data . The move comes as the FTX estate is set to begin repaying its first creditors on Feb. 18. The motive behind these small Bitcoin transfers is unclear. Ethem Ozturk, co-founder of Muhabbit who first spotted them, speculates that they may be test transactions to make sure things go smoothly when the bigger payouts start. According to the latest update from Sunil Kavuri, who represents the largest group of FTX creditors, FTX will initiate distributions to “convenience class” creditors, those with claims under $50,000. Eligible creditors can expect to receive 100% of their adjudicated claim value, plus 9% annual interest calculated from November 2022, the month FTX declared bankruptcy. Repayments will be based on crypto values converted to US dollars at the time of FTX’s November 2022 bankruptcy. While FTX has recovered more than $16 billion in assets, customers may face losses due to the recent appreciation of Bitcoin and Ethereum. The exchange projects that approximately 98% of users will receive 119% of their claim value. FTX’s reorganization plan officially took effect on Jan. 3, and repayments will soon begin. The first group of creditors is expected to receive their reimbursements by early March. FTX will announce its plans for how the rest of its creditors will be repaid in the future.
