Uptober is in full swing: Bitcoin has just made a new all-time high at US$125,559 (AU$189,929) and, with it, has lifted the whole crypto market. Although sentiment seems muted – with the Fear and Greed Index at 59, or neutral – the total market cap now sits at US$4.22 trillion (AU$6.38 trillion).
With BTC’s market cap at US$2.46 trillion (AU$3.72 trillion), it has become the seventh-largest asset globally, ahead of Amazon and just behind silver. Analysts at The Kobeissi Letter said that “it’s still early”, as BTC still has room to grow to reach parity with gold amid a decline in the role of the US dollar.
As we enter the new era of monetary policy, gold and Bitcoin are thriving as the USD declines.
The Kobeissi LetterSo, how high can BTC still go? Twitter analyst CrediBULL Crypto, who has almost half a million followers, has set his sights on the US$150k (AU$227.2k) target.
He wrote that he believes the next leg of the bull run is underway, declaring, “We blast through it… the next leg to 150k+ has begun.”
He noted that any pullbacks into the US$108–118k (AU$163–178k) zone would likely become strong demand areas as traders close underwater shorts, calling potential dips there “a blessing” before the move to higher highs.
