Bitcoin Surges to Become the 9th Largest Global Asset by Market Cap, Hitting a New All-Time High — $110,000 coming?
Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $74,134, reflecting a 17% increase over the past 30 days, with an 8% rise in the last 12 hours. Earlier today, Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of $75,300.
The recent price surge is widely attributed to Donald Trump’s victory in the U.S. presidential election. The crypto community is now eagerly anticipating announcements from Trump regarding favourable regulatory conditions for the crypto industry.
Bitcoin and the Election Cycle
Since Bitcoin’s inception in 2009, each U.S. election cycle has brought new highs, with prices never falling back to pre-election levels. As we move into 2025, bullish sentiment remains strong, fueled by expectations of Trump’s crypto-friendly policies. Despite a lower probability of aggressive rate cuts, the market anticipates around 1.8 rate cuts this year and three more next year.
This election cycle has also propelled Bitcoin to the rank of the 9th largest global asset by market cap, although it may slide down as trade volume decreases in the coming hours.
A prominent Bitcoin analyst has identified a Cup & Handle pattern on the BTC price chart, predicting a potential path to $110,000.
Dogecoin’s Potential Rally
Crypto analysts have suggested that Dogecoin (DOGE) could experience significant gains following Elon Musk’s influence on President Trump. Historical patterns indicate that if DOGE breaks its 0.50 Fibonacci retracement level, it could potentially rally to the 1.618 or 2.272 Fib levels, reaching between $4 and $23 if history repeats.
