The breakthrough of Bitcoin at 100K means that the price of Bitcoin has surpassed the $100,000 mark.
According to 21 Economic Network, as of May 9, 2025, 7:30 AM Beijing time, the Bitcoin price was $102,826, with a 24-hour increase of 5.75%, successfully returning above the $100,000 level. This is the first time since February 2025 that it has broken through this important psychological barrier. From the intraday market, Bitcoin previously rose from a low of $93,327 to a peak of $101,678, forming a clear breakthrough rising pattern.
Previously, Bitcoin had also broken through 100K multiple times in December 2024. For instance, on December 5, according to OKX market data, BTC surpassed 100,000 USDT. On December 12, Bitcoin again broke through $100,000, driven by U.S. inflation data and expectations of interest rate cuts.
The price of Bitcoin breaking through 100K has been influenced by a variety of factors, such as institutional fund inflows, changes in U.S. political policies, global liquidity changes, and market sentiment. Significant purchases of Bitcoin by some companies, as well as the cryptocurrency policy of the newly elected U.S. President Trump, have all played a role in driving the price of Bitcoin.
