Bitcoin, the top cryptocurrency, just crossed $100, 000. On December 5, it reached an all-time high of $103, 679, after starting at just a few bucks in 2011. Despite critics from big finance and economists, Bitcoin kept climbing. Now, with a new government that likes crypto, everyone's wondering: what's next?
Some experts see this as a big moment. Petr Kozyakov, the CEO of a crypto company, said Bitcoin could be used by everyone, just like the internet. The new president's crypto-friendly approach has been a boost. Since the election, Bitcoin's value shot up by 54%.
One reason for this rise is Bitcoin ETFs, which became a thing in January. These gave Bitcoin more credibility, and investors are loving them. But not everyone agrees on what happens now. Some think Bitcoin might drop to $85, 000 soon. Others say it could hit $110, 000 by the start of 2025.
What does this mean? Well, it shows how divided people are about Bitcoin's future. But one thing's clear: it's becoming more popular and accepted. Where will it go from here? That's the big question.
