NBA legend Scottie Pippen recently expressed his excitement for the surge in Bitcoin (BTC) prices.

As the price of Bitcoin (BTC) touched $105,700, many are interested in learning more about the dynamics behind this price movement and its impact on the global market. Here's a look at the latest developments.

Representatives of the US and Chinese governments reached an agreement in Geneva to reduce trade tariffs for 90 days. This agreement aims to ease international tensions that have affected global trade and financial markets.

According to data from Santiment, this announcement had an immediate positive impact on Bitcoin (BTC) prices and major stock indices. The market reacted quickly with a significant increase in the value of Bitcoin (BTC).

However, Santiment emphasized the importance of waiting for an official statement from Donald Trump regarding the details of this deal. The tariff reduction is expected to provide more room for economic growth for both countries and strengthen the Bitcoin (BTC) exchange rate in the global market.

Japanese company Metaplanet has announced a new Bitcoin (BTC) purchase that makes them the holder of more Bitcoin (BTC) than El Salvador.

With the purchase of 1,241 Bitcoin (BTC) worth $125.3 million, Metaplanet now has a total of 6,796 Bitcoin (BTC) in its long-term portfolio. This puts them above El Salvador which has 6,714 Bitcoin (BTC).

Metaplanet CEO, Simon Gerovich, revealed via Twitter that their strategy is to follow the Strategy playbook in accumulating Bitcoin (BTC). With a price per Bitcoin (BTC) purchased of around $100,967, this investment shows Metaplanet’s commitment to Bitcoin (BTC) as an asset of the future.

Although Metaplanet and El Salvador have shown growth in their Bitcoin (BTC) holdings, there is still another big player in this market. Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, owns 555,450 Bitcoin (BTC) valued at almost $58 billion.

However, they now lag behind BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF iShares which owns almost 572,000 Bitcoin (BTC). This large stake by BlackRock shows how major financial institutions are starting to seriously adopt Bitcoin (BTC) as part of their investment portfolios. It also signals an important shift in how the market views Bitcoin (BTC) as a viable and profitable investment asset.

With endorsements from big names like Scottie Pippen and global companies continuing to increase their investments in Bitcoin (BTC), the future of the cryptocurrency is looking brighter than ever.

Significant price increases and adoption by large entities show that Bitcoin (BTC) is increasingly accepted as a mainstream asset and not just a speculation tool.
