Bitcoin (BTC) Price Rallies 5% to Set a New All-Time High Above $106,000

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Rallies 5% to Set a New All-Time High Above $106,000

Bitcoin price rallied nearly 5% in a day to set a new all-time high above $106,000 on Dec. 15 as speculation of it becoming a United States reserve asset continues to grow.

Bitcoin BTC price today is $105,645, and it topped out at $106,554 but has since fallen slightly to $106,000, TradingView data shows. Its previous high was $104,000, which was set on Dec. 5. It is now up nearly 16% over the last month and over 55% since the US presidential election on Nov. 5.

It comes as Strike founder and CEO Jack Mallers said US President-Elect Donald Trump could potentially issue an executive order designating Bitcoin as a reserve asset on his first day in office on Jan. 20.

“There’s potential to use a day-one executive order to purchase Bitcoin,” Mallers stated, adding:

“We'll have to see what happens with the administration and how quickly they can get their footing and start issuing orders. But I think there will be a lot of pressure from the Bitcoin community.”

Meanwhile, Satoshi Action Fund CEO Dennis Porter says a third Bitcoin reserve bill is in the works at the state level — however, he didn’t reveal which state would follow Texas and Pennsylvania's lead.

“We had Pennsylvania, and we had Texas. And now we have another state coming on board. And they sent me the draft. So I know it’s real,” he said during a Dec. 15 X Spaces. Porter added he expects at least 10 states to introduce a Bitcoin reserve bill in total.

Financial analysts also tip a 0.25% interest rate cut from the US Federal Reserve on Dec. 18, which could push Bitcoin’s price even further in the coming months.

Bitcoin’s market sentiment is currently in the “Extreme Greed” zone at a score of 83 out of 100, according to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index.

It hasn’t been higher since Dec. 5, when Bitcoin broke through the $100,000 milestone.
