Bitcoin surged to an all-time high of ?107,000 on Tuesday, buoyed by expectations that governments and large institutions may bolster their reserves with the cryptocurrency amid heightened economic uncertainty.
Key Drivers:
Strategic Reserve Speculation:The rally was fueled by speculation that central banks and sovereign wealth funds are exploring Bitcoin as part of their strategic reserves to hedge against global market instability.
Institutional Adoption:Growing institutional interest, highlighted by recent announcements of Bitcoin-backed ETFs, has further fueled the bullish sentiment.
Macroeconomic Factors:Persistent inflation concerns and lower real yields in traditional markets have led investors to Bitcoin as a hedge against fiat devaluation.
