#BitcoinHashRateSurge Bitcoin reaches $100,000 yet again; what's behind this meteoric rise?

On Monday morning, Bitcoin surpassed the $100,000 mark for the first time in

2025.

Institutional investors' return and increasing Bitcoin accumulation are likely the

main forces propelling the price over the critical threshold.

The short-term positive indication for the BTC price is the shrinking Bitcoin

supply on exchanges.

With a surge to $101,184, Bitcoin (BTC) finally crosses $100,000 in 2025 on

..Monday. Coinglass data shows that the number of options trades has increased

by about 100% in the last 24 hours, which is likely driving Bitcoin's price spike. /

Investors are hoping that at the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump

two weeks from now, Trump would enact policies and regulations that are

favorable to cryptocurrency.

The recent rise in Bitcoin's value may be attributed to two main market factors:

the resumption of institutional capital inflow and a decreasing quantity of BTC

on exchanges.

These two triggers are propelling Bitcoin to a $100,000 rally.

Institutional investors' interest in Bitcoin dwindled in the last two weeks of

December. Nevertheless, according to statistics compiled by Farside Investors,

there was a string of days when institutional interest in Bitcoin was low. This

was followed by a resurgence of interest in early January.

Friday saw Bitcoin's highest net inflow volume since mid-December 2024, with

$908.1 million flowing into its US-based Spot ETFs. The most valuable

cryptocurrency by market cap is seeing a return of institutional investment,

which is the usual interpretation.
