Bitcoin Reaches New All-Time High of $109,220 Today, Ending Investors' Four-Month Wait

Bitcoin's price reached a new all-time high of $109,220 today, ending investors' four-month wait. After breaking the former high of $108

Bitcoin (BTC) price finally hit a new all-time high (ATH) today, reaching $109,220 to smash the former high of $108,900.

The new ATH comes after a four-month wait from investors, who saw the price tag get tantalisingly close to the crucial level on several occasions.

However, with the new high hit, BTC is likely to continue its uptick in the coming days, though this does raise the potential of profit taking at the hands of investors.

Still, past data shows that even during the January 2025 ATH, the exchanges did not see much inflow immediately after the ATH, which makes it likely that investors might refrain from selling until strong signs of a market top appear.

Nevertheless, BTC eventually noted a downtrend as the market cooled down and profit-taking began. This led to BTC falling to $74,508 over the course of the next three months. Whether this will happen again is yet to be seen.

Standard Chartered is still hyper bullish on Bitcoin

Earlier this week, Standard Chartered seems to be hyper bullish regarding Bitcoin. Speaking to BeInCrypto, Geoff Kendrick, Head of Digital Assets Research at Standard Chartered, stated that Bitcoin is still on course to hit $500,000 before the end of Trump’s second administration.

“We are also incrementally more bullish on Bitcoin as we expect more investors to gain access to the asset and as volatility falls, we believe portfolios will migrate towards their optimal level from an overweight starting position in Bitcoin.”
