Why Is Bitcoin Price Up Today?

Bitcoin price today is up 1.73% and currently exchanges hands around $93,976.0. Since hitting an all-time high of $93,400 BTC, it has been consolidating. During this sideways movement, Bitcoin set up a new ATH of $93,980 on November 19, but due to a lack of follow-through, it has slipped back into the range.

Regardless, the long-term outlook remains bullish and can be attributed to the conclusion of the US elections. As a result of this, BTC broke out from its seven-month consolidation.

*bitcoin price updated as of 11 PM.

Value of BTC hovers around $93,976.0 as of November 20 with the year-to-date gain from 121% as of November 20. Although altcoins have shot up in excess of triple digits, Bitcoin is catching up but Ethereum’s YTD performance stands at 40% and is lackluster.

Although Bitcoin is the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, Bitcoin’s popularity is due to its first-mover advantage and its being a secure, decentralized network. In addition, many narratives, like digital gold, inflation hedges, and uncorrelated assets, have kept BTC at the forefront of the crypto market since its inception in 2009.

BTC Price Today is Bullish

Industry veterans’ speculation of a bull run post-US elections was right and Bitcoin is likely to end November and 2024 on a positive note. Many even expect a six-digit target for BTC by the end of November and is due to the historical returns. History shows that Bitcoin has always performed massively in the fourth quarter.

Historical Bitcoin Price Performance

With that said, if Bitcoin price continues to set up new ATHs in November and December, its market capitalization, which stands at $1,859.2 billion, could push toward the $2 trillion mark.

Bitcoin: The Largest Cryptocurrency

While Bitcoin’s market cap hovers around $1,859.2 billion, with Ethereum, the duo controls nearly 65% of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization which stands at $2.40 trillion. Despite the seven-month consolidation, Bitcoin’s $1.3 trillion market cap remains strong, anticipating it reaching $2 trillion in 2025.

BTC’s 24-hour Trading Volume

Being the top crypto has its benefits; more people tend to flock toward the asset. Likewise, BTC’s 24-hour trading volume stands at $80.7 billion. With a major portion of this volume being contributed by Binance, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges. Binance’s share of BTC’s 24-hour trading volume is made up of spot and perpetuals trading. While spot volume hovers around 11%, perpetual volume stands at 41%. Exchanges like OKX, Bitget, etc, follow Binance.

The forecasts hint at a common bullish trend for Bitcoin in the long term, similar to what was obsered betwene 2025 and 2029. Between the next two decades, BTC will note a bullish explosive trend that pushes it up to have an average price between $2.9 million and $3.3 million per coin.

Disclaimer:

Investors should take these long-term predictions with a grain of salt and consider that these forecasts are bound to change depending on the macroeconomic and geopolitical landscape at the time.

Will Bitcoin Price Hit $100K Today?

The one-hour Bitcoin chart shows clearly that the overall trend is up. BTC has produced higher lows for the past week, which shows buyers are paying a premium to accumulate Bitcoins.  Furthermore, the $87,982 to $93,400 range is being breached to the upside due to bullish momentum. Ideally, a breakout from consolidation often leads to a move that scales the height of the range. In this case, a retest of $98,817, aka the 200% Fibonacci extension level, is likely.

If the buying pressure continues, this bullish trend could propel BTC to retest the 261.8% Fibonacci extension level of $102,164.
