Bitcoin is poised for a historic moment. Today, there is a strong likelihood that Bitcoin will close at a new all-time high, around $92,500. While the cryptocurrency market operates 24/7, a new daily closing high would be a significant milestone on the charts. Additionally, tomorrow could mark a revolutionary event in the crypto market with the introduction of Bitcoin ETF options.

Following the introduction of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US this year, which have been some of the fastest-growing funds, options are expected to further fuel institutional involvement.
- New investment opportunities: Options will enable investors to employ more sophisticated investment strategies, such as hedging their positions or speculating on Bitcoin's price movements.
- Potential impact on Bitcoin's price: The introduction of options could increase Bitcoin's price volatility. While the launch of futures contracts a few years ago had a net negative impact, the introduction of ETF options is expected to enhance the market's predictive power regarding future price movements.
Can Bitcoin continue to rise?
Not necessarily. The introduction of options is just one of many factors influencing Bitcoin's price. Other factors such as regulations, geopolitical events, and macroeconomic conditions can also significantly impact the cryptocurrency market. Recently, there has been much talk about adopting Bitcoin as a strategic reserve in the US, but this will only become clear next year with the start of the new administration. Interestingly, some forecasts suggest Bitcoin may not stop at $100,000 but could even reach $200,000. The cryptocurrency market has recently surpassed the $3 trillion mark for the first time since 2021.
