Bitcoin Price Eyes New Highs as Whale Activity Signals Bullish Trend

Key Insights:

  • Whale wallets are accumulating Bitcoin fast, showing rising confidence.
  • Historical patterns suggest whale accumulation often precedes major Bitcoin price rallies.
  • Bitcoin dominance breakdown may ignite an altcoin rally.

Bitcoin price is gaining upward momentum as institutional demand rises, driven by increasing whale accumulation and technical patterns that suggest further upside. Now, analysts are expecting key breakouts between $116,000 and $165,000 as BTC price rises to new highs. According to data from CryptoQuant, Bitcoin might be starting the next part of its long-term bull run.

Whale Accumulation Continues to Build Bitcoin Price Upward Pressure

According to CryptoQuant data, whales played a key role in the recent increase in Bitcoin prices. There has been an increase in accumulation by addresses that hold 1,000 to 10,000 BTC, except for those linked to exchanges and mining pools. The recent 30-day change in holdings surpassed its 30-day simple moving average, resulting in a historical bullish signal.

Whale accumulation, according to CryptoQuant, is usually followed by an increase in the Bitcoin price. Analyst CQ Julio commented that rising whale balances are “associated with higher Bitcoin prices.” This trend indicates that investors are confident about the long run, suggesting higher valuations ahead.

As of this week, BTC price traded near $108,900. Whales are investing more, which is boosting the price right now. These large players seem to be strengthening their positions, which could help Bitcoin price reach a new all-time high.

BTC Dominance Breakdown Signals Possible Altcoin Surge

While whale activity signals confidence in Bitcoin, another key indicator is showing possible rotation. Analyst CryptoGoos pointed out that Bitcoin’s dominance has collapsed after witnessing a fall from an ascending wedge structure. A retest of the downward trend has shown the breakdown is likely.

Bitcoin dominance was previously forming higher highs and lows. Notably, a recent break below the trendline indicates that relative strength is falling. CryptoGoos stated that Bitcoin dominance is weakening a lot, which may lead investors to focus more on altcoins.

If the trend holds, Bitcoin’s dominance could fall as low as 62%. A decline in dominance typically precedes altcoin rallies. As investors move away from BTC, more money could go into Ethereum and Solana. Enthusiasm about Bitcoin’s leadership is waning slightly now that its price has dropped slightly.

Analysts Predict Bullish Path to $165K

Furthermore, Javon Marks believed Bitcoin price is on its way to breaking through to $116,652. He indicated that the target is almost reached, as the asset just needs to rise by 6.6%. Should the trend keep going, Bitcoin price could rise to $165,745 within the next few months.

Marks further added that when the economy is in such a state, prices often rise. The chart demonstrates that there are holdings and changes of direction, and all occur within clean breakout areas. A move to $165,000 would offer investors 40% more profit.

Max also believes that Bitcoin price can rise to $140,000 before the end of Q3 2025. He cites that every time the price dips, it soon rises again. His accompanying chart

These bullish forecasts reinforce the macro narrative. Many investors are waiting and hoping that high demand will lift prices even more.

Technical Setups Align with Accumulation Momentum

The technical landscape supports these projections. BTC price is currently strengthening as it trades above its previous lows and gains more support on longer charts. The RSI and MACD momentum indicators are showing signs of a renewed bullish trend, but without signs of overbought.

The support level for BTC price at $100,000 is both psychological and technical. Traders believe that $116,000 is the upcoming breakout level, and investors are also monitoring Fibonacci targets that guide them to around $140,000 and higher.

With whales buying up cryptos and investor sentiment improving, the market likely will continue in an uptrend. If the economy remains stable and ETFs flow normally, Bitcoin price might hit $165,000 sooner than expected.
