Bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency market have been growing in strength throughout the past few days and weeks, with buyers taking firm control of BTC as they send it to new all-time highs.
The crypto crossed the $1 trillion market cap milestone today, a monumental event that highlights just how far the crypto has come throughout the past few years.
One trader is now eyeing even further near-term upside, explaining that the next target for him sits somewhere within the lower-$60,000 region.
Bitcoin Shows Signs of Strength as It Crosses $1 Trillion Market CapAt the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading up 6% at its current price of $54,700. This marks a massive surge from its recent lows of $50,800 that were set yesterday evening.
The entire market is showing some immense signs of strength at the moment, except for DeFi altcoins which have been sliding lower as investors rush to gain exposure to Ethereum.
MicroStrategy completed their convertible note offering, which means that a billion dollars is about to be injected into BTC. This could be the source of the recent runup.
