💸$BTC updated historical maximum above $106,000 after Trump's statements about the reserve fund
On the night of December 16, 2024, the Bitcoin rate rose above $106,000, updating the historical maximum. The asset was marked by growth for the seventh week in a row.
According to the data of the interactive table of the Ministry of Finance, the cost of the first cryptocurrency as of 09:00 is $105,000. The increase on the weekly chart is 3.95%.
In addition to Bitcoin, most other large crypto assets in terms of capitalization showed a small increase. Cryptocurrency $ETH rose by 3.34% to $3,974.
Two factors could be the likely drivers of growth — the mention of US President-elect Donald Trump's Bitcoin reserve in a media interview and the inclusion of MicroStrategy in the Nasdaq-100 index.
