With this appreciation, the 24-hour has reached above $46B, suggesting the potential move to achieving exclusive price hikes in the near future. In addition to this, Bitcoin accounts for a $1.96T in terms of market capitalization. Simultaneously, Bitcoin’s fully diluted valuation has also jumped to $2.07T. At present, out of maximum Bitcoin supply of almost 21M $BTC, up to 19.86M $BTC is in circulation. Hence, scarcity is again emerging as a key force in the price upswing of the asset.

Especially, it attracts those who privately intend to have a hedge against rising inflation or diversify their investment portfolio. Now, the market onlookers are keenly observing Bitcoin’s price movement as it is nearing the psychological level of $100,000.Reaching Psychological $100K Level Could Lead to Further Price HikesMany analysts view the $100K mark as a key resistance level that could trigger further gains. On the other hand, many think the current price zone is a noteworthy profit-taking area. Overall, the current upward price trajectory of Bitcoin is making waves across the cryptocurrency market. Moreover, amid the latest developments like Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade, Bitcoin ($BTC) is continuously maintaining its key position with the inclusion of more and more institutional capital.
