Bitcoin hits all-time high $125,000

Bitcoin hit a record high and was up nearly 2.7% at $125,245.57 on Sunday, October 5, 2025.

Bitcoin’s previous record was $124,480 in mid-August, buoyed by friendlier regulations from United States President Donald Trump’s administration and strong demand from institutional investors.

The world’s largest cryptocurrency by market value had risen on Friday for an eighth straight session, bolstered by recent gains in U.S. equities and inflows into bitcoin exchange-traded funds.

In contrast, the U.S. dollar retreated on Friday, posting multi-week losses against major currencies, as uncertainty surrounding a U.S. government shutdown clouded the outlook and delayed key data releases, such as payrolls, critical for gauging the economy’s direction.
