As gold continues to set new all-time highs (ATH) – trading at $3,333 per ounce at the time of writing – Bitcoin (BTC) has seen more subdued price action, consolidating in the mid-$80,000 range. However, analysts suggest that the top digital asset may soon mirror gold’s recent momentum. Bitcoin Set To Follow Gold’s Momentum? In a recent post on X, crypto trading account Cryptollica hinted that BTC may be poised to replicate gold’s historic price movement seen over the past few months. The account shared the following chart, highlighting the striking similarities between the price actions of gold and BTC. Source: Cryptollica on X The chart shows both gold and BTC forming a macro-bottom around early 2023, followed by a rejection at the range top in early 2024. Gold eventually broke out in the following months, while BTC lagged slightly, breaking out around November 2024. Related Reading According to Cryptollica, BTC now appears to be breaking out of a consolidatory wedge pattern, with a potential mid-term target as high as $155,000. Currently, Bitcoin’s ATH stands at $108,786, recorded earlier this year in January. BTC is also likely to benefit from several favorable macroeconomic trends. For example, the global M2 money supply is expected to increase in 2025, a development that typically supports risk-on assets like Bitcoin. BTC Maturing As A Safe Haven Asset Beyond technical chart patterns, BTC has demonstrated remarkable resilience amid escalating global tariff-induced uncertainty. According to the latest The Week On-Chain report, both gold and BTC have performed well during the ongoing tariff war. The report notes: Amidst this turmoil, the performance of hard assets remains remarkably impressive. Gold continues to surge higher, having reached a new ATH of $3,300, as investors flee to the traditional safe haven asset. Bitcoin sold off to $75k initially alongside risk assets, but has since recovered the week’s gains, trading back up to $85k, now flat since this burst of volatility. The report also mentions that BTC recently experienced its largest price correction of the 2023–25 cycle, a -33% drawdown from its ATH earlier this year. However, this correction remains relatively modest compared to those seen in previous market cycles. Related Reading The following chart illustrates BTC bull market correction drawdowns since 2011. As shown, the recent -33% correction is the shallowest among past cycles, with the deepest being -72% during the 2012–14 bull market.

This is evidenced by recent outflows from Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs). At press time, BTC is trading at $84,694, up 0.7% in the past 24 hours.

Bitcoin Price Action Says Bottom Is In, Analyst Reveals What’s Coming
Este artículo también está disponible en español. Crypto analyst Master Ananda has asserted that the bottom is in for the Bitcoin price following its massive crash below $80,000 last week. In line with this, the analyst revealed what to expect next from the flagship crypto. In a TradingView post, Master Ananda claimed that the bottom is in based on the current Bitcoin price action. He stated that last week’s drop, touch-and-go, is the perfect bottom signal. The analyst further remarked that $78,300 can be taken as the bottom, which represents a 28% decline from BTC’s all-time high (ATH) of $109,000. Related Reading Master Ananda also noted that this was a classic retrace, as there always is one after a strong bullish breakout. He explained that this classic retrace is good for the Bitcoin price because the flagship crypto will take its time to build up strength. The analyst added that taking time to grow is good, and is the only way it can work if BTC is to move higher in the long term.

Master Ananda then suggested that the flagship crypto could reach $200,000 next month. Master Ananada then advised market participants to buy and hold seeing as the low is in for the Bitcoin price. He added that the market is giving a second opportunity, as market participants have the chance to buy at relatively low prices. The crypto analyst also mentioned that BTC is in an accumulation phase and asserted that it will go up and continue to grow in the long-term. BTC Regaining Momentum Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto also affirmed that the Bitcoin price is regaining momentum. He noted that BTC has reacted strongly to the Kijun acting as support on the weekly chart. The analyst added that a weekly close above the Tenkan at around $94,000 would confirm a shift in momentum and reinforce the bullish case for the flagship crypto. Related Reading Meanwhile, in another X post, the analyst asserted that the Bitcoin bull market is still on. He claimed that there was no bear market in sight according to the Supertrend indicator. As such, the analyst believes that it is not yet time to be bearish. His accompanying chart suggested that the Bitcoin price could still rally to above $200,000 before the bear market kicks in. At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $92,000, up over 5% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
