Bitcoin Awakens with a Vengeance – $120K Target Now in Sight
Bitcoin shakes off its slumber like a caffeinated bull—liquidity hunters are circling as the $120K threshold glows on trading screens.
Why the sudden surge? Institutional FOMO meets a supply crunch. Grayscale’s ETF inflows hit record highs while miners hoard coins like dragons guarding gold. Meanwhile, Wall Street analysts scramble to revise price targets upward—again.
Technical breakout or trap? The monthly chart shows a clean breach of the 2024 ATH, but skeptics whisper about leveraged longs piling in. 'Classic bull market behavior,' quips a hedge fund manager, adjusting his Lamborghini lease terms.
One thing’s certain: Bitcoin thrives on volatility. Whether it’s a sprint to six figures or a brutal retracement first, traders are strapped in for the ride. And as always, the only free lunch in crypto? The bankers’ tears when they miss the boat—again.
