Bitcoin has experienced significant fluctuations, with a slide towards $90,000 after the post-election rally. Its price then rebounded, climbing above $96,000 ahead of Thanksgiving, moving closer to the $100,000 target. Crypto leaders, including Cardano Founder Charles Hoskinson, are optimistic, forecasting a surge to $500,000 amid the DeFi boom, while Tim Draper predicts Bitcoin reaching $120K by the end of 2024, and $250K in 2025.
Despite recent setbacks, including Bitcoin retreating from $100,000 after failing to break the resistant threshold, experts suggest that such pullbacks are normal. MicroStrategy bolstered its Bitcoin holdings with another $55,000 purchase despite its shares sliding. The company now owns over $37 billion in Bitcoin. Additionally, other companies such as Irma Energy and YouTube competitor Rumble are investing heavily in Bitcoin, reflecting their faith in the coin.
Various indications suggest the bull market is far from overvalued, with Bitcoin back on track for its best November since 2020. However, some anticipate a 30% correction ahead of a potential $100k rally. Bitcoinβs journey has been echoed in mining stocks with Iris Energy reportedly having an interesting Wednesday.
Meanwhile, political moves are also favouring the coin. Trump's Bitcoin backing could position El Salvador as a Key Ally, and a Bitcoin strategic reserve bill has been introduced in Brazil's Congress.
Analysts warn that trading tools associated with Bitcoin, like tech futures and ETF options, could experience a fall due to expected inflation data. Nevertheless, Bitcoin holds strong above $93k.
