Bitcoin Price Soars Above $80k as Analysts Eye Record-Breaking Targets

The Bitcoin price has surged above $80,000, with analysts predicting a potential run towards $100,000. According to Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan, the US Treasury's intervention in long-dated bonds has created conditions that put bitcoin on a path to a new all-time high.

Hougan argues that efforts to suppress long-term rates strengthen the hard-asset case for Bitcoin, as it prefers 'a little financial repression'. He links the rally directly to debt, yields, and renewed debasement concerns.

CryptoQuant's Julio Moreno believes a decisive break above $83,000 would confirm the new bull market. However, short-term profit-taking risks are elevated after the surge.
