Bitcoin (BTC) Approaches Significant Profitability Milestone: Insights from U.Today
Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, reached a peak of $65,250 during Thursday’s trading session, marking its highest level since August.
The cryptocurrency market is closely monitoring Bitcoin’s price movements, especially as it approaches a significant profitability milestone. Data from an on-chain analytics platform indicates that Bitcoin is on an upward trajectory, leading to an increase in the number of holders making profits.
It’s noted that if Bitcoin surpasses the $65,000 mark, more than 90% of holders will see gains, a situation last seen in July when Bitcoin was unable to break through the $70,000 threshold. This situation raises the important question of whether the current conditions will lead to a different outcome.
In late July, profit-taking was observed after Bitcoin failed to get past the $70,000 level, resulting in a drop to lows of $49,050 on August 5 before recovering. As of the latest update, Bitcoin was up by 0.92% over the past 24 hours, trading at $64,536. Other cryptocurrencies, such as Shiba Inu (SHIB), Dogwifhat (WIF), and Worldcoin (WLD), also experienced significant gains as bullish sentiment lifted the market early Thursday.
In related news, the Federal Reserve’s recent announcement of its first round of interest rate cuts has spurred upward movement in risk assets like Bitcoin, with traders anticipating an additional 50-basis-point cut in November.
During a recent hearing before the Financial Services Committee, Gary Gensler, the Chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), reassured stakeholders that Bitcoin does not qualify as a security, reinforcing positive sentiment within the Bitcoin market.
Traders are eagerly awaiting insights on the potential pace of interest rate cuts from key Federal Reserve officials, including Chair Jerome Powell, along with relevant economic data.
