Bitcoin ($BTC), the leading crypto asset, has surpassed 125K today to record a new all-time high. As per the latest data obtained from CoinMarketCap, BTC is trading at $125,449. Back in August 2025, $BTC set all-time high of $124,457.12. Later, it dipped below $110k providing a perfect opportunity for re-accumulation. Today, it has recorded a new price high with an impressive 14.55% weekly surge. Today’s significant surge shows the extent of positive optimism in the crypto market.

Bitcoin Re-gains Momentum with Positive ETF Inflows and US Govt Shutdown

As of September 19, 2025, Bitcoin ($BTC) was struggling below $110k. The BTC spot ETFs have received significant inflows since the beginning of October providing the much-needed support to Bitcoin for its next leg up. This proves the narrative once again that October is a bullish month for cryptocurrencies that is why it called Uptober by crypto enthusiasts.

On 3^rd of October, the last trading day of this week, Bitcoin Spot ETFs collectively recorded almost $1 billion inflows. The exact number as per the data taken from SoSoValue is $985 million. This is the primary reason behind today’s pump.

Currently $BTC is trading above $125,000, up 2.27% over the last 24-hours with the trading volume of $47.19B and the market cap of $2.49T. In the same line, $BTC has shown the same trajectory over the past week with the rise of 14.55% which has changed the mindset of crypto traders toward Bitcoin.

Coming towards the second reason behind this pump, the US govt shut down has helped bring BTC back to its track. The US congress failed to agree on funding legislation. Due to this, the US govt was shut down on 1^st of October 2025 with thousands of workers sent to homes without pay. This has caused uncertainty. Amid this uncertainty, people are using Bitcoin as a hedge. This has proved the second reason behind BTC’s new all-time high.

$BTC Price Prediction: What would be the Bitcoin’s Next Mark as per Expert Insights?

October has proved itself to be ‘Uptober’ for the crypto market as significant crypto analysts are predicting the major Bull Run happening this month. Based on the Bitcoin’s previous daily, weekly and monthly price movement, crypto experts believe that $BTC could hit $131,700.22 by the end of October 2025 and eyeing $140k by the end of 2025.
