Bitcoin’s Weekend Breakout: Price Breaks All-Time High Record Again – Here’s What We Know
Bitcoin broke its all-time high price record at $119,292.62.
After this historic high, the price has retreated somewhat and is currently trading at $118,979.14. Bitcoin, which has gained 9.22% over the past seven days, has once again attracted investor attention.
In the last 24 hours, the cryptocurrency market saw a total of $205.37 million in liquidations. $83.77 million of these liquidations came from long positions and $121.59 million from short positions. The assets that saw the most liquidations were as follows:
BTC: $41.13 million
ETH: $35.06 million
XRP: $15.32 million
XLM: $10.69 million
Altcoins like PENGU, DOGE, SOL, and HBAR also saw liquidations worth millions of dollars.
“Bitcoin has historically been highly correlated with tech stocks, and that trend continues,” said Nic Puckrin, crypto analyst and founder of Coin Bureau. Bitcoin, which has risen around 21% since the beginning of 2025, has also been supported by the Trump administration's crypto-friendly policies, including the creation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve and the expansion of digital asset holdings.
Pepperstone research strategist Dilin Wu stated that the underlying reason for this rally is the ongoing structural inflows from institutional investors. Wu also emphasized that companies continue to accumulate Bitcoin, noting that firms like MicroStrategy (MSTR) and GameStop (GME) are adding BTC to their balance sheets.
Trump Media Technology Group (DJT) reportedly filed an application this week requesting approval to launch a “Crypto Blue Chip ETF” with approximately 70% of its portfolio comprised of Bitcoin.

Next target 8%? US mortgage rates soar to a three-year high as “higher for longer” trades sweep the real estate market
U.S. mortgage rates are experiencing a sharp upward surge. In just over a month, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate has climbed by a full percentage point, reaching above 7.5%, the highest level in three years. As a result, homebuyer demand has plummeted, and existing home sales in September are expected to show a significant decline.
Bank of America Hartnett: Interest rate hikes become the biggest bullish factor, the logic of ending the bond bubble is spreading
Bank of America strategist Hartnett has made a counterintuitive assessment: the most favorable event for the stock market before the end of the year would be for the Federal Reserve to proactively raise interest rates in October—using a tightening move to curb the out-of-control long end. If the Fed proves its willingness to control inflation and term premium through an October rate hike, the market may actually stop worrying about the 10-year yield surging toward 6%, thereby easing pressure on stocks. Currently, while US stocks have not yet been brought down by interest rates, cracks are quietly spreading in South Korean brokers, French government bonds, and CCC-rated credit bonds.
Goldman Sachs chart: "Gasoline prices determine the US midterm election"! Prediction market shows "Democrats have a 65% chance of sweeping both chambers"
A recent report from Goldman Sachs shows that the Iran war caused oil prices to surge from $3 to $5 per gallon, while the Democratic Party's lead in the general ballot simultaneously expanded from 5 to 9 percentage points—two trends that closely align. Goldman Sachs believes that Hurricane Isaias, once again impacting 63% of offshore capacity in the Gulf of Mexico, has made oil prices a true "ballot decider." Bank of America warns that if the Senate sweeps both chambers, it will trigger significant risk aversion, potentially causing the stock market to plunge by over 10% and weakening the US dollar.
