Grok AI, the artificial intelligence model developed by X, has projected Bitcoin may reach $200,000 by the end of 2025, based on analytical models tracking institutional adoption and supply-demand dynamics. Bitcoin is currently trading around $110,000, with the AI citing accelerating institutional inflows through ETFs and treasury allocations, the cryptocurrency's capped supply of 21 million coins, and growing demand from nations and corporations as primary drivers. The forecast emphasizes data-driven analysis rather than speculation, as Bitcoin maintains a market capitalization of $2.19 trillion with daily trading volume exceeding $72 billion.

Bitcoin traded above $114,500 as crypto lender Ledn crossed $1 billion in Bitcoin-backed loans issued in 2025, reflecting growing institutional demand for crypto credit. Trump-linked American Bitcoin expanded its treasury to 3,865 BTC valued at $445 million after purchasing an additional 1,414 BTC worth $163 million. Technical analysis suggests a potential move toward $124,000 if bulls maintain current support levels.

Bitcoin traded at $115,185, gaining 1.40% over 24 hours as markets responded to reports of a US-China trade framework agreement. The cryptocurrency's market capitalization stands at approximately $2.29 trillion with daily trading volume exceeding $56.6 billion. Washington and Beijing reached the framework during weekend negotiations in Kuala Lumpur, with the agreement expected to be finalized at Thursday's APEC Summit in South Korea.

Ethereum is trading around $3,984 with a 24-hour volume of $16.5 billion and a market capitalization of $480.9 billion. A symmetrical triangle pattern on the 4-hour chart points to a potential breakout toward $4,300. Technical indicators show mild bullish momentum, with the RSI near 58 leaving room for upside movement.

Ethereum traded at $3,951.37 with a 24-hour volume of $25.6 billion and market capitalization of $476.9 billion during European hours. The asset remained constrained below $3,930 resistance despite gaining 0.06% over 24 hours. Institutional inflows and spot ETF optimism continue to support long-term sentiment while traders monitor tightening price action.

Bitcoin fell to approximately $111,546 after $40.56 million in long positions were liquidated within 24 hours, data show. The liquidations followed BTC's failure to break resistance near $114,000, triggering a consolidation phase that reduced market leverage. Ethereum led total liquidations at $44.4 million during the same period.

Bitcoin traded at $111,307 with a 2.05% gain in 24 hours, but analyst Charles Edwards warned that quantum computing advances may pose the greatest risk to the cryptocurrency. Edwards stated at Token 2049 that without a cryptographic upgrade within a year, Bitcoin could face its worst bear market as quantum systems approach the capability to break elliptic curve encryption. The analyst emphasized that the network requires immediate action to address this existential security threat.

Bitcoin stabilized around $109,000 following two major regulatory developments. U.S. President Donald Trump pardoned Binance founder Changpeng Zhao on October 23, 2025, ending an 11-month legal process. The European Union imposed sanctions on Russian cryptocurrency exchanges and the ruble-backed stablecoin A7A5, targeting platforms allegedly linked to sanction evasion.
