Background
On October 21, 2025, Bitcoin's price has been observed generally ranging between $107,000 and $111,000. This comes amidst a broader "downward streak" in the cryptocurrency market, characterized by a "fear zone" in sentiment. Earlier in October, Bitcoin had climbed above $126,000. Recent market activity includes significant ETF outflows and large-scale liquidations, contributing to current volatility. Coinciding with this, a Federal Reserve conference on payments innovation, stablecoins, and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) is taking place on October 21, 2025, which could potentially influence future crypto market dynamics.
Considerations
The specified price options for this market range from $105,000 to $123,000 or higher. While Bitcoin reached over $126,000 earlier in October, reported prices on the resolution date are generally positioned at the lower end of these options. Traders should consider the current market sentiment and recent price trends when making predictions.
