Most traders expect Bitcoin price to hit new highs throughout 2025, and charts suggest ETH, SOL, SUI and AAVE could be the top-performing altcoins this year.
Bitcoin (BTC) reached the six-figure mark for the first time on Dec. 5, signaling a significant milestone for the cryptocurrency markets. One of the primary reasons for the gains was the sustained inflows into United States Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said in a Dec. 17 post on X that spot Bitcoin ETFs’ assets under management stood at $120 billion, just shy of gold’s $125 billion. He said that Bitcoin funds competing with gold funds within 11 months of launching was “unreal.”
