The crypto market has started the week on steady ground, with Bitcoin trading between $111,085 and $112,040 in the past 24 hours. Despite some selling pressure, Bitcoin has held firm, showing resilience and keeping its dominance intact. 

According to CryptoBusy, Bitcoin’s strong volume-to-market cap ratio of 1.29% and declining volatility, dropping from 60% to 30% are now attracting institutional attention.

“Bitcoin is edging closer to gold’s risk profile,” said CryptoBusy, highlighting BTC’s growing appeal to large investors.

Bitcoin Price Analysis: Key Levels to Watch

On the technical side, Bitcoin is building bullish momentum. On the 2-hour chart, BTC is testing resistance near $111,922, with EMA indicators clustering between $111,000 and $111,500.

A bullish crossover on the MACD is signaling upside momentum, and traders are watching whether Bitcoin can push past the 200 EMA.

• Short-term target: $113,000–$114,000
• Next breakout target: $125,000–$128,000 if September momentum continues

Bitcoin vs Gold: Historical Trends

Analysts note that gold typically lags behind Bitcoin by around 100 days due to its greater liquidity and broader adoption.

“Gold historically leads Bitcoin… but with gold’s rally showing signs of peaking, attention is shifting to whether BTC can follow with its own breakout in Q4,” noted analyst Joe Consorti.

Research firm Tephra Digital also reinforced this view, stating:

“Bitcoin’s correlation with global money supply and gold suggests BTC could reach between $167,000 and $185,000 if past trends repeat.”

Gold and Silver Competition

While many are bullish on Bitcoin, not everyone agrees. Silver has surged above $41, its highest price since 2012, drawing investor interest toward traditional safe havens.

Economist Peter Schiff argues Bitcoin still lags behind:

“Measured against gold, Bitcoin remains 16% below its 2021 peak,” he said, adding that mainstream media is misreading the gold rally.

In Schiff’s view, the real drivers behind gold’s rise are:

• Rising unemployment
• Ballooning U.S. deficits
• Interest rate cuts
• A weakening dollar

“These will ultimately fuel soaring inflation and push gold even higher,” Schiff warned.
