Bitcoin Price Hits $109K All-Time High: Is This the Start of a New Bull Run?
-
BTC $ 84,051.38 (0.70%) 
Bitcoin price surged over 3.3% to a new all-time high of $109,114, driven by strong institutional demand and potential nation-state adoption.
Over $264 million in Bitcoin and $1.25 billion in altcoins were liquidated, mainly from long traders.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen significant inflows, reaching over $1.5 billion year-to-date, indicating strong institutional interest.
Bitcoin (BTC) has just crossed a major milestone, closing last week above $101k and surging by over 3.3% in the last 24 hours to reach a new all-time high (ATH) of around $109,114. This sharp rise signals the start of a fresh parabolic rally, fueled by rising demand from institutional investors—and soon, potentially nation-states.
Let’s dive in and explore the factors behind this rally and what’s likely to happen in the coming days.
Massive Liquidations in the Market
Bitcoin’s rapid price increase after retesting the $100k support level triggered massive liquidations in the leveraged market. In just 24 hours, more than $264 million worth of BTC was liquidated, mainly from long positions. The altcoin market experienced similar volatility, leading to $1.25 billion in forced liquidations, with $911 million coming from long traders.
Institutional Investors Boost Bitcoin’s Rally
Bitcoin’s strong rally is supported by institutional investors who are looking to hedge against global inflation and ongoing economic uncertainty. US spot Bitcoin ETFs, in particular, have seen massive growth in net cash inflows since the beginning of the year.
According to the latest market data, US spot BTC ETFs have seen more than $1.5 billion in net cash inflows year-to-date. As a result, these ETFs now have a total of $38 billion in net inflows and hold a combined $120.95 billion in assets.
Bitcoin’s Technical Outlook: What’s Next?
From a technical analysis perspective, Bitcoin’s price is forming a megaphone structure on the daily chart. After bouncing back from the lower boundary last week, Bitcoin is well-positioned to rally towards the $114k level in the near future.
While the bullish trend is strong, short-term traders should be cautious of a possible “sell-the-news” reaction after tomorrow’s inauguration of Donald Trump. Additionally, Bitcoin may be entering a macro consolidation phase before continuing its bullish momentum.
