$100,000 Bitcoin

December 5, 2024

ONE Bitcoin is worth around $103,000 this morning.

The original cryptocurrency peaked at $103,500 - a historic all-time high - pushing its market cap past the $2 trillion mark.

For context, that places Bitcoin alongside tech giants like Google and Amazon, both valued at approximately $2.2 trillion.

It’s a mixed bag across the crypto markets today. TRON and XRP are seeing steep sell-offs, while others like The Sandbox (SAND) and Synthetix (SNX) have posted solid gains. Ethereum is also riding Bitcoin's coattails, up 4% over the past 24 hours.

Some analysts suggest this rally could have more room to run, with Bitcoin’s breakthrough at $100,000 likely to draw even greater public and institutional interest. Let’s see.
