Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high above $112,000, driven by increasing global investor demand and significant liquidation of BTC shorts.
This price rally helped the total crypto market capitalization rise to $3.47 trillion, below the record $3.73 trillion from December 2024.
Factors contributing to the rally include President Trump's new tariffs, on-chain accumulation, and Bitcoin's growing status as a safe-haven asset.
Analysts observe a shift towards spot buyer dominance and decreasing exchange reserves, signaling potential for a supply shock-driven rally in Bitcoin.
