Bitcoin Price Is Up 0.56% Today as US Treasury Secretary Says BTC's Becoming Store of Value

Highlights

  • Bitcoin price today is up 1.57% and is likely to continue this bullish outlook.
  • Although BTC could hit $100K in 2024, it is unlikely it can do that before November ends.
  • However, a move to $100K is possible before the end of 2024 when the liquidity is relatively less due to the holidays.

Bitcoin (BTC) price today trades at $98,444.0 as of 11 PM. BTC price hit a daily high of $98,831.0 today after rallying 4.59% on October 29.

Why Is Bitcoin Price Up Today?

Bitcoin price today is up 4.59% today and currently auctions around $98,444.0. Since the breakout from the seven-month consolidation and the $75k hurdle, the crypto market outlook has turned bullish. While a few altcoins shoot higher, the alt season is yet to begin.

*bitcoin price updated as of 11 PM.

Price of BTC trades at $98,444.0, bringing the year-to-date gain from 56% on October 20 to 108% as of November 18. Although many altcoins have shot up over triple digits, Bitcoin is catching up. Ethereum price’s YTD performance is lackluster, stands at 39%, and is well below BTC.

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.

Bitcoin Price Eyes Bullish End to 2024

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

With that said, if Bitcoin price hits a new ATH in November or December, Bitcoin’s market capitalization, which stands at $1,947.7 billion could push toward the $2 trillion mark.

Bitcoin: The Largest Cryptocurrency

 

While Bitcoin’s market cap hovers around $1,947.7 billion, with Ethereum, the duo controls nearly 65% of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization, which is $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 $113.6 billion. Binance, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, contributes a major portion of this volume. Binance’s share of BTC’s 24-hour trading volume comprises spot and perpetuals trading. While spot volume hovers around 11%, perpetual volume is 41%. Exchanges like OKX, Bitget, etc, follow Binance.

Bitcoin Blockchain Upgrades

With a market cap of $1.3 trillion, it is necessary for the network to remain secure, decentralized, and scalable. This is possible by upgrading the Bitcoin network regularly.

Here are some notable upgrades the Bitcoin network has received or planned to receive since its inception in 2009.

The bullish explosive trend noted up to 2029 will continue for BTC based on CoinGape predictions and potentially push the average price of BTC in 2050 between $2.9 million and $3.3 million. Investors should note that these long-term predictions can change and, hence, should be taken with a grain of salt.

How Will Bitcoin Price React to $3 Billion Buying Spree?

Michael Saylor, the CEO and founder of MicroStrategy, has increased the size of its convertible note from $1.75 billion to $2.6 billion. This suggests that the company will continue its BTC buying spree.

According to the announcement, the offering will close today, November 21, and is aimed at high-net-worth investors with a maturity of 2029. The blog also added,

“The notes will be sold in a private offering only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers.”

Investors need to note that the latest offerings has not finished yet, as MicroStrategy announces the new offering.

On a side note, here’s Michael Saylor’s tweet from two days ago.

Although this is fundamentally bullish for Bitcoin, the implication of this might not be felt in the short term. The lack of influence on BTC’s value can be attributed to over-the-counter (OTC) deals. Institutions or high-net-worth individuals use methods to conceal their buys in the short term and do not affect the market price of the underlying asset.

Regardless, the outlook is bullish, and the momentum is strong, so it wouldn’t be surprising if Bitcoin hits $100,000 before November ends.
