BTX Insights｜Will Bitcoin Break $100,000 This Week?
Bitcoin Nears Record Highs as Market Eyes Six-Digit Milestone
On Thursday, Bitcoin surged by 3.6%, reaching a peak of $97,892, edging closer to the $98,000 mark. Since Donald Trump’s election victory on November 5, the total cryptocurrency market capitalization has soared by approximately $900 billion, reflecting growing optimism about favorable regulatory changes.
Policy Boost: Push for a “Crypto Czar” in the White House
Trump’s transition team is reportedly considering creating a new position in the White House dedicated to digital asset policy. This “Crypto Czar” role would be the first of its kind in the U.S., providing the industry direct access to one of its biggest supporters. Orbit Markets co-founder Caroline Mauron stated, “The $100,000 psychological barrier is within sight, and the market expects prices to rise rapidly.”
Institutional Support Fuels Momentum
Since Election Day, 12 Bitcoin-focused ETFs in the U.S. have attracted $5.8 billion in net inflows, pushing their total assets above the $100 billion milestone. This demonstrates institutional investors’ confidence in Bitcoin as a viable asset class. Additionally, Bitcoin giant MicroStrategy has announced plans to increase its convertible senior note offering by nearly 50% to $2.6 billion, aimed at further Bitcoin purchases. The company now holds approximately $31 billion in digital assets, cementing its transformation into a Bitcoin asset manager.
$100,000 Target: When, Not If?
The market’s focus has shifted from “if Bitcoin will break $100,000” to “when it will happen.” Bullish options trading reflects this sentiment, with significant bets placed on Bitcoin surpassing six figures by December 27. IG Australia analyst Tony Sycamore remarked, “While the path to $100,000 may not be entirely smooth, demand appears insatiable.”
Regulatory Clarity and Strategic Bitcoin Reserves
Trump has pledged to establish a supportive regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and even proposed creating a strategic Bitcoin reserve. While the feasibility and timeline remain uncertain, the announcement has boosted market confidence.
A New Chapter for Bitcoin and the Crypto Industry
From policy breakthroughs and institutional backing to surging market sentiment, Bitcoin is on the cusp of achieving the historic $100,000 milestone. This achievement not only underscores the growing maturity of the digital asset industry but also highlights its increasing significance in the global financial landscape. The combined forces of policy and market support are paving the way for a transformative era in cryptocurrency.
