Bitcoin struggles: fall to USD 111,000 – hope for a price turnaround!
Bitcoin (BTC) is currently under pressure as it trades around $111,000 on October 22, 2025. This development follows a notable decline after Bitcoin hit a high of $126,000 earlier this month. Loud FXStreet Bitcoin has performed poorly compared to the Nasdaq-100 (NDX) and gold this year.
So far in 2025, Bitcoin has only gained 13.5%, while the Nasdaq-100 has risen by 19.8%. The correlation between Bitcoin and the stock market has increased in recent weeks, while the relationship with gold has weakened significantly. Currently, the 30-day correlation between BTC and Nasdaq is 0.44.
Volatility and decline
A flash crash on October 10 caused a significant decline in Bitcoin's performance, which combined with recent volatility resulted in a decline to a four-month low of $103,500. Although Bitcoin managed to recover slightly, traders are showing increasing caution. They recorded smaller gains on positive trading days, while larger declines were observed on negative days.
Funding rates for Bitcoin have been negative since the crash on October 10th, marking the first period of negative funding rates since May 8th. This situation is accompanied by an increase in open interest of 15,800 BTC over the past week, indicating increasing activity from short traders.
Optimism for the future
Nevertheless, analysts at the company K33 remain optimistic about the future of Bitcoin. They point to strong fundamentals and possible macroeconomic drivers that could have a positive impact on the market. Institutional adoption of Bitcoin is growing, with BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF nearing $100 billion in assets under management. Financial advisors are also increasingly incorporating BTC ETFs into their portfolios, potentially making it easier to access Bitcoin through 401(k) products.
Analyst Lunde highlights that BTC scarcity could become an increasingly important driver for the market. Despite the current challenges, the crypto market is showing signs of stabilization, giving investors hope for a speedy recovery.
Overall, Bitcoin's development remains closely linked to its performance compared to traditional markets and increasing institutional interest. The coming weeks could be crucial in determining whether Bitcoin emerges from its current period of uncertainty.
