Bitcoin: A new ATH crossed, and it's just the beginning

in #cryptocurrency17 days ago

Bitcoin, a measure of alternative financial markets, has surpassed $76,800, marking a significant milestone. It's a staggering number, to be sure, but many analysts claim it's only the beginning of a book that may become a bestseller.

Why has the cryptocurrency king risen so quickly, and what has the potential to make him even more successful? Let's investigate the unseen reasons behind this bullish movement.

It is amazing to observe how institutional investors, who were initially hesitant, have evolved into significant market participants.

Nominal open interest surpasses 15,000 Bitcoin, and CME futures trading activity has skyrocketed, reaching a height of $13.15 billion on November 6.

Contrary to popular belief, such behavior is not the product of irrational speculation. These actions reveal a strong belief that bitcoin is much more than just a wager. This lever is strategic.

And why the newfound zeal? There are several aspects involved. First, institutional portfolios have been revitalized by the increasing use of spot Bitcoin ETFs.

Subsequently, the red wave of pro-crypto politicians changed the political landscape in the US, reducing uncertainty and fostering investor confidence.

It is no accident that almost $1.1 billion in open interest was added on the same day; rather, it is the result of a well-thought-out plan.

Between predictions and technical evaluations: will a bitcoin reach $85,000 or higher?
It's no secret that cryptocurrency enjoys playing with the unknown. This time, however, analysts concur that the price of Bitcoin may soon reach $82,000 to $85,000.

An analyst's invaluable compass, the Fibonacci extension tool, has already projected a target of $82,367. The order book's depth indicates that demand is prepared to consume the remaining supply, and the support levels in the $77,000–78,000. Let's just say that the field is open to more surges.

The relative stability of options is another feature that distinguishes this rally. JJ, a HighStrike derivatives specialist, claims that implied volatility has subsided, indicating that the market may have reached its bottom.

Because of this, traders can think about purchasing long-term options without worrying about abruptly going back on the roller coaster. After all, the US elections' lack of tumultuous movements was a comforting indication—a rare instance of crypto smiling calmly.

Secret Motivators: Monetary Strategy and Geopolitics
Monetary policy continues to be an important but frequently overlooked issue. Markets, including cryptocurrency, reacted wildly to the US Federal Reserve's move to lower interest rates by 25 basis points.

An explosive environment is what you get when you combine it with the rumor that the US may be building a strategic reserve of Bitcoin. One in which investors are joining the movement rather than only observing Bitcoin's growth.

The belief that Bitcoin has not yet reached its full potential is only strengthened by the rise of MPs who are supportive of cryptocurrencies and expectations for further interest rate lowering. Every each large purchase appears like the spark that could ignite the next major fuse, and the air is charged with electricity.

Thus, Bitcoin sits on the precipice of new promises after enduring storms and skeptics. And if history has taught us anything, it's that the best is frequently still to come in the Bitcoin space. In addition, Ethereum is working on a project.
