Bitcoin Price Prediction: BTC Hits Wall at $109K as ETF, El Salvador, and Miners Boost Bull Case

El Salvador’s government has quietly added 240 BTCs since signing a $1.4 billion loan deal with the IMF in December 2024. That agreement restricted the country from expanding its Bitcoin position, but loopholes have allowed continued accumulation, now totaling 6,209 BTC. President Bukele’s strategy of buying one BTC per day remains in effect, albeit outside formal state accounts. Despite a 44.5% year-over-year decline in crypto inflows to El Salvador in Q1 2025 , the country’s unwavering stance sends a strong signal to markets: BTC adoption, at least in some parts of the world, remains very much alive.

Miners Strengthen U.S. Market Control; BTC Supported According to JPMorgan, U.S.-listed miners now control 31.5% of the global Bitcoin hashrate—the highest share on record. Riot Platforms, Hive Technologies, and CleanSpark lead the charge, with a combined 99% year-on-year increase in hashrate capacity. Meanwhile, network growth stood at 55%. NEW: Davinci Jeremie claims “Bitcoin mining is becoming a geopolitical arms race now.” Currently the US leads the way with 36% of the total hash rate. pic.twitter.com/ZZxD34kGOI — Cointelegraph (@Cointelegraph) May 30, 2025 Despite a modest drop in hash price, miner valuations have surged $2.4 billion this year, with Riot alone accounting for 20% of that gain. This shift consolidates institutional infrastructure in North America, supporting the argument that Bitcoin is maturing into a fully fledged asset class. Bitcoin Technical Outlook: Bulls Lose Grip at $108,950 Bitcoin is currently trading at $106,647, down 0.52% on the day. The 1-hour chart shows BTC retreating from symmetrical triangle resistance near $108,951. The long upper wick on the rejection candle, combined with a bearish MACD crossover, indicates waning momentum. Bitcoin Price Chart – Source: Tradingview Support now lies at the 50-period EMA ($106,656) and horizontal levels at $106,196 and $104,633. A break below these could trigger a deeper slide toward $103,132. Levels to Watch: Resistance: $108,951, $110,406 Support: $106,196, $104,633, $103,132 Trade Setup: Bullish: Long if BTC reclaims $109K with volume Bearish: Short on breakdown below $106,196 with target near $104,633 Despite bullish macroeconomic headlines, price action remains range-bound, keeping the Bitcoin price prediction neutral. For now, patience and precision remain key.
