According to @Andre_Dragosch, a rotation of just 1.7% of gold’s market value into Bitcoin could double BTC to about 200,000 USD, highlighting BTC’s high price sensitivity to marginal flows, source: André Dragosch on X, Oct 18, 2025. Using World Gold Council estimates that the total value of above-ground gold has been roughly 13–16 trillion USD in recent years, a 1.7% shift implies about 220–270 billion USD of potential inflows, source: World Gold Council. At 200,000 USD per BTC and a circulating supply near 19.6–19.7 million coins, Bitcoin’s market value would be around 3.9 trillion USD, implying a market-impact multiple of roughly 14–18x versus the notional inflow; traders should monitor BTC dominance, spot BTC ETF net flows, and gold outflows for confirmation of rotation, source: Blockchain.com circulating supply data; arithmetic based on price × supply; issuers’ daily ETF flow reports; LBMA gold market statistics.

According to Altcoin Daily, BTC should be valued at least one-third of gold’s total market capitalization, which the author says implies roughly a 4x upside from here. source: Altcoin Daily on X Oct 14, 2025 To benchmark the claim, traders can estimate gold’s aggregate value using the World Gold Council’s above-ground stock data and the LBMA gold price to translate tonnage into market capitalization. source: World Gold Council Gold facts and above-ground stocks; LBMA Gold Price USD One-third of that gold valuation can then be compared to Bitcoin’s live market capitalization from TradingView, with an implied per-coin target derived by dividing by circulating supply reported by institutional data providers such as Glassnode. source: TradingView market capitalization; Glassnode circulating supply Key catalysts to monitor for convergence or divergence include the BTC/XAU ratio, net creations and redemptions in U.S. spot BTC ETFs enabled since January 2024, and movements in real yields that historically influence gold demand. source: TradingView BTC/XAU; U.S. SEC orders approving spot Bitcoin ETFs Jan 2024; World Gold Council research on gold and real rates; Federal Reserve FRED TIPS yield series

According to the source, a social post claims BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) became the fastest ETF to reach $100B in AUM, and traders should confirm this via the official iShares product page, SEC EDGAR disclosures, or Bloomberg before acting on the headline. source: BlackRock iShares; U.S. SEC EDGAR; Bloomberg For trading impact, focus on net creations and redemptions across U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs because flows, not headline AUM, drive primary market BTC demand. source: SEC Rule 6c-11; iShares ETF creation/redemption primer In 2024, sustained net inflows into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs coincided with BTC upside, making daily flow prints a key short-term signal to monitor. source: CoinShares Digital Asset Fund Flows; Bloomberg Actionable checks: verify IBIT’s latest basket files, authorized participant activity, and aggregate U.S. spot BTC ETF net flows; persistent positive creations tend to support BTC on risk-on sessions. source: BlackRock iShares; ETF issuer basket files; CoinShares Digital Asset Fund Flows

According to the source, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) bought 7,720 BTC worth $969.95M on Oct 6, 2025. This claim has not been independently validated via BlackRock iShares’ official IBIT daily holdings disclosure or SEC filings at the time of writing, per BlackRock iShares and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Per BlackRock’s IBIT prospectus, spot creations are backed by physical bitcoin held with the custodian, so confirmed net creations of this size would reflect material BTC acquisition via the primary market, a factor traders track for liquidity and basis dynamics, per the BlackRock iShares IBIT prospectus. To validate and quantify trading impact before positioning, market participants should check BlackRock iShares’ IBIT daily holdings and DTCC share creation data, per BlackRock iShares and the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation.

According to the source, US-listed Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows every day this week, totaling roughly $3.2B worth of BTC acquired, indicating persistent primary market demand, source: X post dated Oct 5, 2025. Consistent net creations in spot BTC ETFs require authorized participants to source or deliver BTC to the trust, which can tighten circulating supply in spot markets, source: SEC S-1 filings for US spot Bitcoin ETFs and BlackRock iShares Bitcoin Trust prospectus. Traders commonly track ETF net flows alongside exchange BTC balances and CME BTC futures basis as demand proxies and liquidity gauges, source: Farside Investors ETF flow tracker, Glassnode exchange balance dashboards, and CME Group futures and basis education.

According to @AltcoinDaily, Bitcoin (BTC) is up roughly 100 percent over the past year as of Oct 3, 2025 (source: @AltcoinDaily post on X). Traders can verify the one-year change by comparing BTC-USD closing prices from Oct 3, 2024 to Oct 3, 2025 on Yahoo Finance and TradingView, which show a similar year-over-year doubling over that window (source: Yahoo Finance BTC-USD; TradingView BTCUSD Index). For trade setup, the prior cycle all-time high near 73,800 is the critical resistance; a sustained weekly close above that level points to trend continuation, while repeated rejection implies a range-bound market with mean-reversion risk (source: Coinbase BTCUSD historical ATH on Mar 14, 2024; TradingView BTCUSD chart). To gauge demand, monitor U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF daily creations and redemptions published by issuers such as iShares IBIT and third-party dashboards, which provide timely flow data for confirmation (source: iShares Bitcoin Trust daily flow reports; Farside Investors spot Bitcoin ETF flow tracker).
