      Bitcoin skyrocketed to $107,587.79 yesterday, marking a historic all-time high as anticipation builds around the Federal Reserve’s expected interest rate cut tomorrow.

      The cryptocurrency has seen an astonishing 145% rise in 2024, solidifying its position as a key asset in the financial landscape.

      Analysts attribute this meteoric growth to several converging factors:

      • Heightened expectations of a weaker US dollar
      • The potential for an expanded money supply
      • A wave of optimism surrounding crypto-friendly regulatory changes anticipated under the incoming Trump administration.

      The Federal Reserve’s projected 0.25% rate cut is seen as a potential catalyst for continued Bitcoin momentum, as lower interest rates historically bolster risk-on assets by making traditional safe-haven investments less attractive.

      Furthermore, regulatory clarity promised by the Trump administration, coupled with increasing institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies, is driving confidence among both retail and institutional investors.

      Bitcoin’s record-breaking rally highlights its growing appeal as a hedge against inflation and a store of value in an era of economic uncertainty.

      Many believe that the cryptocurrency could continue its upward trajectory, especially if the Fed’s policy moves align with market expectations, further supporting the bullish sentiment surrounding digital assets.

          2024 has been one of the most momentous years for bitcoin to date. 2025 will be interesting too. The key challenges it could face are from the US central bank and inflation. The rate cuts for 2025 are already priced in, it’s likely to be more about to what degree the cuts deviate from expectations. If the Fed really moves to curb inflation bitcoin, other altcoins plus equities, junk bonds etc could suffer.
