Bitcoin (BTC) just hit a new milestone, closing its daily candle above $75.6K for the first time ever. The flagship cryptocurrency surged to an all-time high of $76,243 on Wednesday before settling around $75K early Thursday during European trading. This strong price movement has eased concerns of an immediate selloff, bolstering positive sentiment in the market.
Bitcoin’s fear and greed index has climbed to 77 percent, indicating “extreme greed” among traders. The recent U.S. election, which saw the re-election of several pro-crypto candidates, has further fueled investor confidence, drawing FOMO-driven traders back into the market.
Analysts expect the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England (BoE) to announce interest rate cuts today to encourage economic growth. With a favorable shift in the U.S. political outlook for crypto, many investors are increasing their cryptocurrency holdings.
Even traditional gold investors are beginning to view Bitcoin as a hedge, especially after Donald Trump’s re-election this week.
In the last 24 hours, stablecoin issuers have injected over $3 billion across various blockchain networks, especially on Ethereum. Spot On Chain data shows that Tether’s Treasury issued $1.845 billion in USDT to major exchanges, with most going to Binance and smaller amounts to Coinbase, OKX, and Kraken.
Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire also announced that nearly $2 billion in stablecoins were issued over the past week, with $1.2 billion minted in just the last 24 hours.
Historically, rising stablecoin supply has been seen as a positive market signal, as it suggests investors are preparing to buy more assets.
Significant cash inflows to U.S.-based spot Bitcoin ETFs over the past week further support the likelihood of a bull rally. With stablecoin activity surging and renewed optimism in politics, the crypto market may be gearing up for another strong rally in the days ahead.
