Bitcoin Dips to $108K Following Record High—But the Bulls Aren’t Running Scared Yet
Bitcoin’s price retreats from its latest peak—yet the market’s still betting big on crypto’s golden child. Here’s why the smart money isn’t panicking.
After kissing new highs, BTC sheds some gains—classic volatility or a sign of things to come? Traders shrug it off as healthy profit-taking (and maybe a few Wall Street suits sweating their over-leveraged positions).
Key indicators flash green: institutional inflows hold steady, retail FOMO lingers, and that ’number go up’ dopamine hit? Still very much in play. Meanwhile, traditional finance pundits clutch their pearls—right before quietly rebalancing their portfolios.

QCP also pointed to potential institutional catalysts ahead. One major firm, Strategy, is expected to channel proceeds from a $2.1 billion preferred share offering—yielding 10%—into Bitcoin purchases, which could fuel another leg up.
Still, analysts warned of macro risks on the horizon, including rising U.S. yields, a stronger dollar, and tariff uncertainty. While bitcoin may stay resilient, they noted, altcoins could face more turbulence if volatility returns.
