Bitcoin has officially surged past $93,700 on April 23, 2025, marking a new local high and reigniting speculation over whether the world’s largest cryptocurrency is on track to break the $100,000 milestone sooner than expected.
In the last 48 hours, BTC has climbed over $10,000, driven by both market sentiment and strong technicals. The current rally started around $83,500 and accelerated quickly through key resistance zones, confirming a strong bullish continuation pattern.
Bitcoin Price Analysis
On the 7-day chart, Bitcoin shows a clean breakout from a low-volatility range that held for most of mid-April. After bouncing near $83,300 on April 20, buyers stepped in with increased volume, driving the price steadily upward.

The support at $88,000 was flipped into a solid base over the weekend, and since then BTC has not looked back. As of today, it’s testing the upper band near $93,720, the current session high.
Technical indicators confirm the bullish setup:
- RSI is currently in the 72–75 range, suggesting momentum is strong but approaching overbought territory.
- Volume remains elevated, especially during upswings, signaling real demand behind the move.
- Short-term moving averages (20/50 EMA) are fanned out in a bullish structure, with no immediate signs of exhaustion.
If BTC manages to consolidate above $92,500 in the coming sessions, many analysts believe that a push toward $96K–98K is likely before attempting the psychological $100K level.
What’s Driving the Rally?
While macroeconomic factors and institutional flows continue to play a background role, this week’s rally appears to be fueled primarily by market structure and trend-following.
On-chain data shows a steady drop in exchange reserves, signaling that investors are moving BTC off exchanges, potentially to hold in cold wallets or custody solutions. This trend has historically been associated with bullish sentiment and reduced sell pressure.
Meanwhile, ETF activity remains strong, and futures funding rates are stable, indicating the rally isn’t purely driven by leverage — a healthy sign.
Final Thoughts – BTC’s Path to $100K
Bitcoin has now closed several days in a row with higher highs and higher lows — a classic uptrend. With the $90K milestone now firmly behind, the conversation is quickly shifting to when, not if, $100,000 will be reached.
For now, the market remains bullish, but traders should stay alert for any short-term corrections, especially if price stretches too far ahead of key averages.
If the current trend holds, and volume remains consistent, BTC could challenge $96K as early as this weekend — putting six-figure territory well within reach for Q2 2025.
