Bitcoin At All-Time High.

Bitcoin Price: Bitcoin continued its rally to hit a fresh all-time high at $126,198 before slumping 1 per cent to $124,140. Bitcoin is +0.79% in the last 24 hours with a circulating supply of 19.93M. The uptober effect, a historical trend, where bitcoin prices appreciate substantially in October, the record inflow in ETFs and Fed rate cut have led to a historical rise in Bitcoin price.

According to Binance, in the past 30 days, the price of Bitcoin gained 12 per cent around $13,761.

The ongoing U.S. government shutdown reinforced the broader “debasement trade”, driving parallel demand for both crypto and gold, CoinSwitch Markets Desk explained to News18. On-chain data points to sustained accumulation, with exchange reserves continuing to decline, it added.

The appeal of Bitcoin is linked to its limited supply. A total of 21 million bitcoins will exist ever, making it a stable and lucrative investment asset for investors.

CoinDCX research team said that as Bitcoin bulls gain traction, institutions become activated, with more than 500 BTC transferred from Coinbase to an unknown institutional wallet. Meanwhile, BlackRock’s IBIT nears $100B AUM, topping in profitability despite being among the newest, it added.

Meanwhile, Ethereum sustains above $4600, BinanceCoin above $1200, and XRP trades close to $3. Solana rises above $232 and is among the top traded tokens. The top gainers for the day include MYX Finance with a jump of over 31.5%, followed by Starknet by over 19.72% and PancakeSwap by over 12%. On the other hand, Pump.fun drops by 5.65%, Hyperliquid by over 3% and Monero by over 2.14%.

Bitcoin Price Outlook

From a technical perspective, Bitcoin is seeing a resistance near $127,000, while support levels are clustered between $120,000 and $122,000. Momentum indicators such as the MACD remain positive, CoinSwitch Market Desk added. A decisive breakout could set the stage for a move toward $130,000 and beyond, whereas failure to clear resistance may prompt a near-term correction.
