$BTC Bitcoin ($BTC) – May 2025: News, Developments, and Predictions

Bitcoin ($BTC) is currently trading around $104,000, which marks a significant increase compared to the levels at the beginning of the year. The main driving factors are the influx of institutional capital through approved spot ETFs, a stable post-halving sentiment, and expectations of changes in monetary policy in the USA.

The market is preparing for key inflation data (CPI) on May 14. If inflation is lower than expected (e.g., below 3.3%), it could strengthen confidence in an early reduction of interest rates, which could push BTC even higher. Conversely, higher inflation could slow down the growth or temporarily trigger a correction.

Prediction: If sentiment remains positive and CPI is not surprisingly high, it is not excluded that BTC will test the $110,000 level in May. However, the market remains sensitive to macroeconomic news and regulatory signals, especially in the USA and EU. Long-term, analysts expect that if the trend of ETF purchases and low supply on exchanges continues, BTC could approach the $120,000–$130,000 mark in 2025.
