Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of $97,900 this morning, following last night’s rally. The surge was driven by growing optimism for crypto, fuelled by headlines emphasizing Bitcoin’s increasing importance in the corporate world and rising capital inflows into the asset.

MicroStrategy is expected to raise $2.6 billion to purchase more Bitcoin, with MSTR surpassing a $100 billion market cap and topping US trading volume last night.

Several corporate treasuries are following the likes of MicroStrategy by adding Bitcoin to their reserves, with Acurx Pharmaceuticals reported to have purchased up to $1 million worth of Bitcoin.

There has been overwhelming buying of January calls as we approach the Trump inauguration rally.

What’s Next?

With BTC holding firmly above the 97k mark, it’s now closer than ever to that 100k milestone. Throughout the week, our desk observed aggressive demand in March and June Calls, signalling investors’ long-term bullish sentiment for next year.

BTC spot ETFs have extended their winning streak to three days, with a total of $1.84 billion in net inflows during that period. The BTC ETF has been the biggest driver of additional capital into Bitcoin this year, with US-based ETFs accounting for $29.4 billion in net flows.

As we continue to see strong demand for BTC alongside further easing of monetary policy by global central banks, BTC prices are likely to remain supported as we approach the end of the year.
