Bitcoin Breaks Records Hit 100000 Dollars

As predicted, Bitcoin’s price has crossed $100,000 before 2024 ends. The current price of Bitcoin is $103,118.73. Bitcoin has become the first cryptocurrency to cross the $100,000 mark. The sudden boost in Bitcoin prices resulted from the change in the political scenario of the United States and the expectation of easing cryptocurrency regulations under Donald Trump’s presidency. 

Geoff Kendrick, global head of digital assets research at Standard Chartered, has said that this achievement became possible due to the increased institutionalization of the industry in 2024, especially as a result of the approval of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) earlier this year. The current price rise has happened as a result of the speculations that Donald Trump will start intense promotion activities and policy reversals to boost the state of cryptocurrencies as the major financial instruments of the country.

The price of Bitcoin had started to rise soon after the election results of the victory of Donald Trump came out. The current price is nearly 50% higher than the price of Bitcoins at the time of the election results. Trump’s proposed appointment of Paul Atkins as the chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is the immediate reason for Bitcoin’s price to rise over $100,000. The price was at a standstill just below $100,000 in the previous weeks, and this news of the appointment has come as a perfect boost for the same. 

The price of Bitcoins has soared more than 139% this year, thanks to the change in the political scenario of the United States. It has achieved this mark after facing many roadblocks such as the collapse of FTX in November 2022. Some analysts are hopeful that Bitcoin has the potential to hit the $125,000 mark before 2024 ends and will reach $200,000 by the end of 2025. 

Despite the hopeful situation, some analysts believe that the price of Bitcoin will fall to as low as $74,000. The chance of a pullback in the price is likely because Bitcoin’s price was at a stagnation point below $100,000 in the past weeks. The high volatility of the cryptocurrencies can also cause the price of Bitcoins to fluctuate.

Some analysts are also expecting the price to stoop as low as $45,000 and $60,000. However, cryptocurrencies are sure to rebound to unexpected highs given their potential and the conducive market.
