Bitcoin in the fast lane: New highs due to economic turbulence!
On May 24, 2025, amid geopolitical uncertainties and a weakening US economy, the Bitcoin market is dynamic. According to an interview with crypto expert Roman Reher, who is active on the channel and blog Blocktrainer, there are positive signals for a potential Bitcoin rally. Current developments in the U.S. economy, including the loss of its top rating from Moody’s, rising government debt and a weaker dollar, are creating an environment that some analysts view as favorable for Bitcoin. Reher emphasizes that the weak dollar and the creditworthiness of the USA are seen as positive factors for the Bitcoin price.
Institutional investors, including Abu Dhabi's sovereign wealth fund and BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, are showing increasing interest in Bitcoin. This could give Bitcoin additional importance as a safe haven in economically unstable times. Reher sees the potential for Bitcoin to possibly reach a price target of $160,000 this year. Political developments in the USA could further promote Bitcoin as a strategic asset, while a possible acquisition of Bitcoin by the USA in the coming year is considered likely.
Influence of external factors
The uncertainties on the markets are further exacerbated by the trade war led by the USA. This leads to reduced stability of global markets, such as Crypto Magazine reported. The fall in 10-year US Treasury yields to a six-month low of 4.0 percent is creating buying opportunities for Bitcoin. However, experts warn of a possible “supply shock” that could be triggered by announced tariffs, which in turn could create inflationary pressures.
Investors remain optimistic. Bitwise’s Matt Hougan sees this as the best time to invest in Bitcoin. The Bitcoin market has only reached about 10 percent of gold's value and could have the potential to increase tenfold. Despite the challenges, Bitcoin has so far shown a more stable performance than the US technology sector, with the price remaining stable above $80,000.
Institutional purchases and market reactions
Bitcoin price saw a decline to $81,580 following the announcement of new tariffs. However, institutional investors used these declines as a buying opportunity. For example, Fidelity's FBTC and Ark Invest's ARK saw large inflows of $119 million and $130 million, respectively, while BlackRock's IBIT saw outflows of $116 million. Bitcoin trading volume rose an impressive 85 percent to $54 billion during this turbulent period. Analysts are now watching to see whether Bitcoin can break resistance at $86,900, while the Bull Score Index points to bearish market conditions at 20, its lowest level since January 2023.
