Bitcoin surged to $99,248 on May 8, 2025, targeting $120,000 after a $109,114 peak in January. Record ETF inflows and institutional buying drive the rally. Can corporate demand push Bitcoin to new highs?
ETF and Institutional Surge
Spot Bitcoin ETFs absorbed $10 billion monthly, with $1.54 billion bought in one day. BlackRock’s demand outpaces the 450 BTC mined daily, tightening supply. ETF purchases hit 24,534 BTC in 72 hours, boosting prices.
MicroStrategy holds 555,450 BTC, valued at $38.08 billion, signaling mainstream trust. Trump’s pro-crypto policies fuel institutional interest, with firms adding $180.3 million in April. The Federal Reserve’s April 24 decision eases bank crypto approvals.
Public firms now hold over 700,000 BTC, per market data. Exchange reserves dropped to a six-year low, reducing selling pressure. Tether-backed “Twenty One” secured 42,000 BTC, strengthening corporate adoption.
Bitcoin $120K Outlook
Bitcoin price rise 30% in 28 days, testing $100,000 after a $109,114 high. Analysts predict $100,445–$151,200, with Kalshi at $122K and Fundstrat at $250K. ETF-driven supply shocks fuel momentum.
Retail FOMO and $280 million in short liquidations add upward pressure. Trump’s tariffs, linked to a 14% dip, risk volatility. A 10% correction to $89K remains possible, per market analysis.
Breaking $100K could spark a $120K rally, with technical levels supporting gains. Bitcoin’s rise lifts altcoins, with 70 altcoin ETF filings signaling market growth. What’s your Bitcoin price prediction for 2025?
