$BTC

Bitcoin (BTC) continues to be a dominant force in the crypto market, currently trading around $104,000. Despite recent geopolitical tensions causing some fluctuations, BTC has shown resilience, with a notable 61-65% gain over the last year.

The asset's market capitalization remains substantial, often accounting for around two-thirds of the total crypto market. On-chain data indicates a trend of institutional accumulation ("whales" buying) while smaller retail wallets show some hesitancy, potentially setting the stage for future upward movement. Discussions about its role as a "digital gold" persist, with ongoing debates on its safe-haven status amidst global events.
