The real problem is DEBT….which will only get worse.” Kiyosaki is not the only one predicting a downturn in the near term, with analyst Arthur Hayes also predicting a mini crisis that could drive BTC to $70,000 before it skyrockets to $250,000 during a subsequent bull cycle.

We expect Bitcoin to hit fresh highs by the end of the quarter.” The analyst stated that BTC had returned to the pre-election volatility levels before the initial euphoria around a Trump presidency began.

The analyst stated, “Volatility has just run out of puff, and in the short term, that could spell danger for speculators. We’re in the neighborhood where volatility looks ready to kick higher, and that’s important because it could be deadly for both sides of the market.” Bitcoin (BTC) Price Analysis Bitcoin (BTC) is struggling to move past $107,000 as buyers struggle to build momentum to retest its all-time high. The flagship cryptocurrency was trading around $104,000 before a sudden drop took the price to a low of $101,580. While sellers have the upper hand at $107,000, buyers have not ceded ground and kept BTC above $100,000. This is because of the growing institutional adoption of the asset in 2025. Spot Bitcoin ETFs registered $4.2 billion in inflows between January 1 and January 24, 6% of all ETF inflows, according to Eric Balchunas, senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg. However, while institutions are scooping up BTC , retail investors are booking profits. Data from CryptoQuant shows that retail investors sent 6000 BTC to Binance while Bitcoin whales have recorded inflows of 1000 BTC . BTC plummeted to an intraday low of $97,766 on Monday as markets collapsed thanks to DeepSeek, a Chinese AI model. However, it recovered from this level to reclaim $100,000 and settle at $102,064. Buyers attempted a recovery on Tuesday but lost momentum after reaching $103,797. As a result, sellers took control and drove BTC down by 0.69% to $101,362.

Source: TradingView Buyers retained control on Thursday as BTC rose to an intraday high of $106,296 before settling at $104,559. Sellers returned to the market on Friday after BTC failed to move past $107,000. BTC ultimately registered a drop of nearly 2% and settled at $102,816. The current session sees BTC marginally down as sellers try to lower the price to $100,000. If sellers push BTC below $100,000, we could see the price drop to $90,000. Buyers are expected to prevent a further decline, raising hopes of a recovery from this level. On the other hand, if BTC can push above $107,000, it could retest its all-time high and potentially move past $110,000. The RSI is just above the neutral zone. However, the MACD is bearish, indicating that sellers may have the upper hand. Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.
