This week, both the crypto and precious metals Markets are on fire as Bitcoin and gold push new highs as the U.S. Federal Reserve decided to hold its key interest rate steady on Wednesday, January 29, maintaining it in the range of 4.25%–4.5%. This decision has provided fuel for asset appreciation, leading gold to a record high of $2,859 per ounce and pushing Bitcoin (BTC) closer to its all-time high of $109,000 last seen on January 20, 2025.
As of press time, Bitcoin is trading near $104,000, just 5% below its record high. With strong market momentum, analysts expect a breakout soon. Given the strong upward momentum in the broader financial markets, analysts believe a new all-time high could be just around the corner.
Gold has officially broken through a decade-long resistance level, signaling the potential for a strong continuation rally. Based on historical patterns, this breakout could push gold price toward $3,000+ in the near term, with even higher targets at $3,200–$3,500 in 2025. If momentum remains strong, could $4,000 gold be on the horizon?
February has historically been a strong month for Bitcoin, with an average return of +15.66% and a median of +15.32%.
Some of its best February performances include:
2021: +36.78%
2013: +61.77%
2017: +23.07%
2016: +20.08%
With historical trends favoring Bitcoin’s performance in February, it’s possible that BTC could break its $109,000 record and surge even higher in the coming weeks.
Analysts predict that Bitcoin price could surge to $125,000 based on the Inverse Head & Shoulders breakout pattern shown in recent technical charts. This classic bullish setup suggests strong upward momentum, with BTC already breaching key resistance levels. If this trend continues, BTC may even surpass $130,000 in 2025, fueled by institutional adoption and growing market optimism.
With gold already at record highs and Bitcoin just 5% away, investors are watching closely. If BTC follows its strong February trend, it could break $109K soon. Will Bitcoin make history first, or will gold cross $3,000? 2025 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for both assets—stay tuned.
Will Bitcoin set a new record before gold reaches $3,000? Stay tuned—2025 is shaping up to be a historic year for both assets.
