Key Points

  • Bitcoin (BTC) hits a new all-time high of $100,000, boosting market confidence.
  • Market projections suggest further growth, with targets ranging from $150,000 to $500,000.

Bitcoin (BTC) has recorded a new all-time high by reaching the $100,000 mark. This milestone was achieved following a 5% price increase during a trading day.

As the world’s largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, Bitcoin’s new high has significantly boosted market confidence. This comes after the coin had stumbled in the past few weeks. The market cap also soared to $2 trillion, marking an increase of 5.74% at the time of reporting.

Supporting Factors and Future Projections

Data from CoinMarketCap indicates that the price continued to surge, hitting $103,700. Concurrently, volume trading rose by 33% to $91 billion, with the majority of the market sentiment being bullish, at up to 80%.

The price movement was bolstered by the nomination of Paul Atkins as Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) by Donald Trump. This nomination has brought a positive sentiment to the market, with support coming from Ripple’s Brad Garlinghouse and Congressman Tom Emmer due to Atkins’ pro-crypto stance.

Furthermore, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s recognition of Bitcoin as a competitor to gold has provided a perspective that this digital asset is commonly recognized as a safe-haven instrument asset class.

Bitcoin Price Targets

Beyond the $100,000 target price that has already been reached, institutions and crypto personalities still believe that Bitcoin will continue to grow. A new target ranging from $150,000 to $500,000 has been set for the next few years.

Bernstein Research has a bullish target price for 2025 of $200,000. This projection has been updated from $150,000 due to the rise in institutional demand.

Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, predicts that the Bitcoin price could rise up to $250,000 in just 2 years. He believes that this target price is the lowest to achieve, yet the highest target is $500,000.
