Bitcoin hovers near 1,000 as crypto momentum grows

Bitcoin (BTC-USD) continues to soar, with the digital currency hovering near a fresh record past $111,000 per token on Thursday. This surge in price is being driven by institutional buying, a crypto-friendly environment, and a growing appetite for an alternative store of wealth amid concerns over US debt levels.

The cryptocurrency reached an all-time intraday high past $111,700 as a massive tax-cut bill moved through Congress, signaling a growing interest in digital assets. Matt Hougan, CIO of Bitwise, noted that the government’s willingness to increase deficits and print more money has prompted individuals to seek alternative currencies as a hedge against traditional fiat currencies.

Investors are also growing uneasy with rising bond yields, a sign that the market may be losing faith in the sustainability of US debt levels. Hougan mentioned that there appears to be a shift in investors’ long-term appetite for debt, leading them to explore alternative investment options like bitcoin.

Institutional buying has played a significant role in lifting bitcoin prices in recent weeks. The promise of spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and a favorable regulatory environment under the Trump administration have spurred increased demand for the digital currency. More than $8 billion has flowed into bitcoin-related ETFs in the past month alone, highlighting the growing interest from institutional investors.

Since President Trump took office, bitcoin has rallied 60%, benefiting from the administration’s token-friendly framework. Key appointments, such as placing cryptocurrency advocate Paul Atkins as SEC chair, have signaled a positive outlook for the industry. These moves have contributed to bitcoin’s strong performance in recent months.

The recent push higher in bitcoin prices coincides with a key procedural win in the Senate for legislation to regulate stablecoins. This bill, which could face a final vote soon, is seen as a significant step towards broader adoption of cryptocurrencies.

In a further boost to the industry, crypto exchange Kraken is reportedly planning to offer “tokenized equities” of popular stocks like Apple, Tesla, and Nvidia to non-US customers. Additionally, Coinbase recently became the first cryptocurrency exchange to join the S&P 500 index, marking a symbolic milestone for the industry.

As the industry continues to gain momentum, more companies are adding bitcoin to their balance sheets, further validating the digital currency’s position as a viable alternative investment option.

Overall, the future looks bright for bitcoin as it continues to break records and attract institutional interest, signaling a shift towards digital assets as a store of wealth in uncertain economic times.
