As of June 5, 2025, the price of Bitcoin is approximately $105,031, with a 24-hour high of $105,993.1 and a low retracement to around $104,500. Compared to last month, the price has risen nearly 10% from $95,000, but recent fluctuations have intensified, with short-term volatility around 1% to 2%. Daily trading volume has rebounded, and market liquidity remains active.
Against the backdrop of tightening regulations on cryptocurrency assets in many countries, Bitcoin continues to demonstrate strong resilience, with continued inflows of funds and mining activities supporting its price. For newcomers, it is essential to closely monitor the real-time price differences of Bitcoin across different exchanges and make reasonable use of stop-loss and take-profit tools.

Market News and Trends

1. Long-term holders continue to move large positions
   Data shows that long-term holders in the 1 to 5 year range transferred approximately $420 million worth of Bitcoin to exchange addresses in the past 24 hours, marking the fifth largest single-day movement since February 2025. This behavior typically signals potential profit-taking or short-term selling pressure. If large amounts flow into the exchanges, it may intensify downward pressure in the short term.
2. Analyst Sminston With predicts a new high.
   Famous Bitcoin researcher Sminston With pointed out at the end of May that based on the 365-day moving average and power law model, the BTC price still has an upside potential of 100% to 200%, with the cycle peak possibly between $220,000 and $330,000. The current price is only about 2 times below the model trend line, which is highly consistent with historical cycles.
3. Institutional investors have increased their holdings of Bitcoin derivatives again.
   Several hedge funds and family offices have intensified their allocations to Bitcoin futures and options in the past week, reflecting institutions’ optimistic expectations for future upside potential. Meanwhile, the leverage ratio in the market has contracted, indicating a cautious acceleration in risk appetite.

Expert Opinions and Predictions

• The medium to long-term bullish logic remains strong.
  From a macro perspective, a new breakthrough is expected around mid-August. As regulations in multiple European and American countries become clearer, the entry threshold for institutions has decreased, and the number of compliant exchanges has increased, which will attract more capital influx. In addition, the overlapping effect of the Bitcoin halving cycle may become apparent by the end of 2025.
• Market sentiment is cautiously optimistic.
  Although some analysis suggests that the short-term market may be under pressure, on-chain data shows that long-term holders have not exited on a large scale, and mining hash rate remains high, indicating that the on-chain ecosystem continues to thrive. With moderate fluctuations, the price is expected to form new support in the range of $110,000 to $120,000.

Newbie investment advice

1. Properly plan your position and control risk.
   For beginners, it is not advisable to concentrate all funds into a single investment; consider building positions in batches and setting reasonable stop-loss levels. Given the current volatility, it is recommended to set short-term stop-loss at 5% to 8%, and for medium-term take profit, refer to 10% to 15%.
2. Pay attention to on-chain data and policy dynamics
   In addition to technical analysis, it is necessary to pay attention to on-chain holding changes in real time, such as the movements of Bitcoin whale addresses and exchange reserve data. At the same time, regulatory policies have a significant impact on price, so closely monitor regulatory trends around the world.
3. Use a dollar-cost averaging strategy to gain a cost advantage.
   If you are not confident in accurately timing the market, you can adopt a weekly or monthly dollar-cost averaging approach to smooth out costs and reduce the risk of making a one-time bottom-fishing or chasing-the-top investment.
4. Choose a reliable trading platform and wallet
   Beginners should choose mainstream compliant exchanges to ensure stable fiat channels and withdrawal channels. For large holdings, it is recommended to use hardware wallets or multi-signature wallets, and never store large amounts of Bitcoin for extended periods on exchanges.
5. Continuous learning and patience
   The cryptocurrency market is highly volatile, and beginners need to remain patient. By reading news, research reports, and on-chain data, they can continuously improve their understanding of the Bitcoin ecosystem and technology. In the long run, adhering to value investing may yield greater returns.
