Bitcoin (BTC) continues to hold a healthy uptrend around the $117,000 level, with multiple signals suggesting a new price peak could emerge within just a few weeks. Research from CryptoQuant indicates the market still has significant room to run, with a price target range of $120,000 – $150,000.
NVT Golden Cross: A Trend Expansion Signal
According to the latest report, the NVT Golden Cross (NVT-GC) tool — which compares Bitcoin's market cap to its on-chain transaction value — is currently sitting in neutral territory. This indicates the market is neither overvalued nor undervalued.
Historically, when the NVT-GC drops into negative territory, particularly below -1.6, Bitcoin tends to enter strong bullish phases. The most recent "buy" signal appeared in July 2025 when the indicator hit -2.8, after which BTC's price recovered sharply.
CryptoQuant emphasized: "The indicator is not at elevated levels — Bitcoin has not entered bubble territory. There is still plenty of room for price expansion."
Target: $120,000 – $150,000
Beyond the NVT-GC, several other technical tools also reinforce Bitcoin's bullish outlook. A MACD "buy" signal has been active since July, confirming that momentum remains intact. Meanwhile, the current price sits above the STH Realized Price (the average cost basis of short-term holders), which has historically been a precondition for the next strong rally.
Analysts believe Bitcoin may consolidate sideways in the near term to build up energy. However, in the medium term, a price range of $120,000 – $150,000 is entirely achievable — especially as the market moves into Q4.
Conclusion
Bitcoin is sustaining a steady uptrend with no signs of overheating. If the indicators continue to support the bull case, the market could see a fresh price explosion, pushing BTC close to or beyond the $150,000 mark before year-end.
👉 The question on everyone's mind: Can Bitcoin set a new all-time high before the end of Q4 2025?
