Synopsis
Bitcoin price increased beyond $105,000. This surge happened because of reduced global tensions and more investments in ETFs. Ethereum also saw a rise. Other cryptocurrencies like Solana and XRP also gained value. Market experts suggest that if the US Federal Reserve indicates interest rate cuts, Bitcoin might rise further. Regulatory changes are also supporting this upward trend.

Sathvik Vishwanath, Co-Founder and CEO of Unocoin, said the current surge is part of a broader trend driven by institutional support. “Bitcoin has swept liquidity at $100K and now eyes the $110K–$112K zone. If bulls defend $102K, the next leg could aim for $120K,” he said.
The CoinDCX Research Team highlighted that this momentum coincides with regulatory tailwinds. “The Federal Reserve has removed the ‘reputational risk’ clause penalising Bitcoin and crypto. Saylor’s MicroStrategy added another $26 million worth of Bitcoin, now holding 592,345 BTC valued at $41.87 billion,” they said. They also pointed out that Europe’s Blockchain Group recently bought 75 BTC, pushing its total holdings to 1,728 BTC.
The Crypto Fear and Greed Index climbed to 65, re-entering the ‘Greed’ zone, signalling rising investor confidence. Analysts warn, however, that elevated funding rates could lead to temporary pullbacks.
“Capital is rotating into majors, and with Bitcoin dominance at 64.5%, this signals market strength. But traders should stay cautious near $110K—whether it’s a breakout or bull trap will shape the next wave,” Vishwanath added.
As markets await Powell’s remarks, traders are watching closely for cues on interest rate policy. Any dovish signal could amplify the current momentum, possibly pushing Bitcoin toward new all-time highs.
