Bitcoin spent about nine months stuck below $110 K before finally pushing past 
that ceiling this month. The move up to $123,000 shows real buying power. 
According to EliteOptionsTrader, a crypto expert, many investors see this as 
the start of something bigger. Related Reading: Avalanche Shatters Record With 
20M Transactions—Is Real-World Use Finally Here? Key Catalysts Driving The 
Surge Based on examination by EliteOptionsTrader, one of the biggest factors 
is the potential approval of a spot Ethereum ETF. Bitcoin’s own ETFs have 
pulled in billions from major institutions, and a greenlight for Ethereum 
could send more money into crypto overall, lifting Bitcoin further. The US 
election is now behind us, and talk of Federal Reserve rate cuts in late 2025 
is fueling bets on a weaker dollar. Many traders view Bitcoin as a shield 
against political or economic swings. At the same time, hedge funds, sovereign 
wealth funds, and pension plans hold only small slices of Bitcoin so far. If 
they decide to jump in, that could push prices even higher. Bitcoin’s Road to 
$250K in 2025? 🚀$BTC has been consolidating under 110k for the last 9 months 
and finally broke out this month. As of now we already test 120k and looks 
like we are in route to testing 150k in the coming weeks. One thing to note,

EliteOptionsTrader (@EliteOptions2) July 15, 2025 Long Base Could Support 
Further Gains Bitcoin’s lengthy base under $110K sets a solid foundation. 
Breakouts after long periods of sideways action often lead to steep rallies. 
Still, it’s normal for prices to dip back toward the breakout zone. A pullback 
to around $115K–$118K could happen before any major surge. Traders will be 
watching support at $118K and resistance near $125K. Brewing Institutional 
FOMO Even after the rally, big players have only dipped their toes in. 
EliteOptionsTrader notes that a major allocation wave—from a large pension 
fund or insurance giant—could trigger fresh price discovery. And let&#8217;s not 
forget the April 2024 halving, which cut Bitcoin’s daily issuance by half. 
That supply shock often takes several months to show its full effect, but 
we’re seeing demand tick up already. Even with a strong start, the path up 
isn’t without hazards. Sharp corrections of 10%–20% are part of crypto’s 
genes. Any surprise rules from major markets could stall this run. Related

Says On Cautious Optimism And Targets If Bitcoin can clear $127K, the odds of 
a parabolic move rise sharply. Based on analysis by EliteOptionsTrader, a test 
of $150K in the next few weeks looks within reach. That said, aiming for $250K 
by year end will require all these factors to line up without a single major 
setback. Bitcoin’s latest breakout feels exciting, but traders should keep a 
close eye on how it handles new support levels. Riding the trend can pay off, 
yet managing risk is just as important as spotting the next high. Featured
