Bitcoin is exhibiting remarkable momentum. During today's Asian session, it came close to reaching the $90,000 level despite trading below $65,000 just a week ago.
Donald Trump's victory and the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts hold more significance for the cryptocurrency market than even the most optimistic forecasts predicted. Many analysts had set $100,000 as a target for spring next year, but at this rate, we could see $100K by the end of this week.
Bitcoin's seven-day rally now exceeds 32%. This volatility caused $700 million in liquidated short positions on futures markets, the highest losses since April when BTC briefly surpassed its previous peak of $73,000.
Futures on other assets, including Solana (SOL) and Aptos (APT), saw over $25 million in liquidations, reflecting a rapid return to riskier positions.
As previously noted, this surge is directly linked to Trump's victory. Many experts estimate that the Republican win could push the cryptocurrency market's total capitalization to $10 trillion by the end of 2026, up from the current $3 trillion. However, short-term price corrections are likely, mainly after BTC surpasses the $90,000 level.
