Bitcoin Stands Strong Amid Trump, Fed, and Chaos — $100K in Sight?
What if Bitcoin was about to rewrite history… alone? While stock markets plummet in free fall and gold takes a pause after its last glow, the first cryptocurrency proudly holds its head high. It no longer clings to the wheel of its elders. No. It gallops ahead. A phenomenon that some already describe as the great decoupling. A new era where Bitcoin no longer follows anyone, not even gold. And in the distance, like a star in the sky of financial imagination: 100,000 dollars. Analyst fantasy? Leap of faith? Or simply the logical continuation of a scenario already written…
The scenario could have looked like a remake of 2020: shocking announcement from the White House, panic in the markets , massive sell-off of risky assets. And yet… Bitcoin held strong. While American stock markets were down 10.65% and gold, despite a historic peak of $3,167, was down 4.8%, BTC climbed 4.5%, once again crossing the $84,700 mark.
On X, James Seyffart is astonished:
I am really a bit shocked by Bitcoin’s resilience. I never believed it would hold above $80,000 in such a massive sell-off of risky assets… Even gold is down?
The same sentiment is echoed by Crypto Rover, who exclaims:
American stocks are crashing. Gold is crashing. Bitcoin is rising. An incredible force!
This is where enters an old couple from the financial world: gold and Bitcoin. The famous “gold leads, Bitcoin follows“, a theory that has returned like an obsessive refrain among analysts.
What if history were to repeat itself? In 2019 already, gold rose by 15%… before the Bitcoin price exploded by +170%.
This time, some, like MacroScope, see in a return to 100K “a strong signal that a new long-term movement is underway“. A passing of the torch. A rite of passage.
The mythical barrier of $100,000 is no longer just a shiny number that dazzles in the dreams of maximalists. It’s a milestone, a signal. For some, crossing it would mark the beginning of a new long-term cycle, a cycle where Bitcoin definitively emancipates itself from its status as an alternative asset to become… an obvious choice.
But beware of the sirens. The BTC/XAU ratio, which measures Bitcoin’s strength against gold, shows a bearish fractal, identical to the one that preceded a massive drop in 2021. If the scenario repeats itself, a correction towards $65,000, even $20,000, is not excluded. Yes, even in this golden dream, the ground can shift beneath our feet.
And as if that weren’t enough, the economic horizon remains turbulent: the Fed curbs enthusiasm, pushes back hopes for rate cuts, while Donald Trump raises the threat of a global trade war.
So, dream or reality, is this threshold of $100,000? One thing is certain: Bitcoin is in the process of inventing its own grammar. It writes its score against the clock. And while indexes stumble, precious metals hesitate, it carves its path towards the unknown, altitude, audacity. For Arthur Hayes, this rising tension orchestrated by Trump could well become the very essence of a new bullish cycle: “ the tariffs will propel gold and Bitcoin to new heights.” The best may still be to come.

Vaulta and VirgoCX team up to launch stablecoin remittance app VirgoPay
Web3 banking firm Vaulta has announced a strategic partnership with digital asset provider VirgoCX Global Holdings to launch VirgoPay.
VirgoPay will be a cross-border remittance network that integrates stablecoins to reduce transfer fees and speed up transactions.
Set to launch in May, VirgoPay will use Vaulta as its default settlement layer, enhancing the reliability and efficiency of international payments, according to a release shared with crypto.news.
VirgoPay will allow users to fund transfers through traditional payment methods—such as bank transfers, e-transfers, and card processing—or directly via crypto wallets.
Stablecoins will serve as an intermediary, enabling near-instant transactions and reducing fees by up to 70% compared to traditional remittance services.
“Cross-border payments remain costly and slow, often requiring access to banks that some regions lack,” said Yves La Rose, CEO of Vaulta Foundation. “Virgo is addressing this by leveraging stablecoins and demonstrating the power of Vaulta’s Web3 Banking OS.”
The partnership aligns with Virgo’s mission to improve financial accessibility.
“Stablecoins for payments will be the first killer app for distributed ledger technology,” said Adam Cai, CEO of Virgo. “VirgoPay is excited to partner with Vaulta to make global money movement seamless.”
Phase one of VirgoPay’s rollout will connect financial hubs in the U.S., Canada, Hong Kong, Argentina, Brazil, and Australia.
A second phase will expand the network into South America, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, targeting the $1 trillion remittance market projected by 2029.
Vaulta, formerly EOS Network, continues to expand its financial infrastructure solutions, with additional partnerships expected to be announced soon.
