🤯 Bitcoin Breaks Records Again!

Bitcoin just did it—it finally hit $100,000!

Yep, one Bitcoin now costs more than a decent car or the down payment of a dream home.

Last night, it peaked at $101,250, reaching $102,549 at the time of writing, all thanks to a frenzy of Bitcoin ETF investments that pulled in a whopping $676 million in a single day.

Clearly, investors are in full FOMO mode, and honestly, who can blame them? Bitcoin’s rise has been nothing short of meteoric.

Let’s rewind and appreciate the journey:

Back in 2009, Bitcoin was just a nerdy experiment worth zero. By 2011, it had climbed to a humble $1—barely enough for a coffee from a vending machine.

Fast forward to April 2013, and it crossed $100, hitting $111.

By December that same year, it smashed through $1,000, leaving early adopters grinning like they’d won the lottery.

Then came the iconic 2017 bull run in November, where Bitcoin soared past $10,000 and cemented its status as a financial game-changer.

And now, in 2024, it’s smashing records and rewriting the rules of finance.

Today, Bitcoin is so much more than “internet money.” It’s a legit alternative to fiat currencies, a rival to gold, and the stock market’s feisty younger sibling.

It’s also the driving force behind the booming DeFi movement, blockchain tech, and groundbreaking innovations across industries like health and education.

Oh, and the returns? Unreal.

If you’d invested $1,000 in Bitcoin in January 2024, you’d have doubled your money by 120%, thanks to its impressive growth this year alone.

Now go back to early 2020, and that same $1,000 would’ve ballooned by 1,220%.

But here’s the real kicker: if you had invested $1,000 in Bitcoin back in 2013, you’d be sitting on a life-changing $1.4 million today!

This milestone isn’t just about Bitcoin breaking records—it’s a bold statement about how it’s reshaping the global economy.

It’s proof that bold bets can pay off, that innovation thrives even in chaos, and that digital currency is no passing trend—it’s a full-blown revolution.

So, the next time someone tells you Bitcoin isn’t “real money,” just smile and show them the math.

And to all the Bitcoin HODLers out there, whether you’ve been riding this rollercoaster since the early days or just recently hopped on, congratulations on this massive milestone.

You stuck it out through bear markets, shrugged off the FUD, educated yourself, and kept stacking sats. We salute you.

Oh, and when Bitcoin hits $1 million (because, let’s face it, if it can go from $0 to $100,000, why stop there?), we’ll be here to celebrate again.

🔎 Market Insight

SUI broke out of the bullish pennant pattern two days ago. Yesterday, it retested the pattern and is now trying to rally into price discovery once again.

The next significant target is between $7 and $7.50.

On the other hand, TIA has fallen back into the resistance band ($7.99 - $8.64). Today, it is making another attempt to break through. We'll see if it can successfully close above the resistance band on the daily chart.

We believe TIA will break through very soon, so any rejection might be considered an opportunity to acquire more TIA.
