    1. Fed Meeting and 2025 Outlook
Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high of $106,352 on Sunday before slightly retracing to $104,700. This 2.72% daily increase cements Bitcoin’s place as a maturing asset class, driven by growing institutional demand, corporate treasuries, and ETF adoption. Crypto analyst Rachael Lucas described the milestone as a “significant evolution” for Bitcoin, reflecting its shift from retail speculation to a more legitimate investment vehicle.

Factors Behind Bitcoin’s Rally

Several catalysts have fueled Bitcoin’s recent rise. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s comments on creating a strategic crypto reserve have bolstered market sentiment. Meanwhile, MicroStrategy, with its $44 billion Bitcoin reserve, recently announced its inclusion in the Nasdaq 100, reinforcing confidence in institutional crypto adoption. Additionally, Bitcoin mining giant Riot Platforms revealed the acquisition of 5,117 BTC at an average price of $99,669 per coin, showcasing strong faith in Bitcoin's future.

Fed Meeting and 2025 Outlook

Eyes are now on the upcoming U.S. Federal Reserve meeting on Wednesday, where a 25-basis-point rate cut is highly anticipated. Analysts believe this decision could further propel Bitcoin’s bullish trajectory. Presto Research analyst Min Jung noted that the crypto market is also closely watching developments tied to Trump’s January inauguration.

With its current momentum and growing institutional interest, Bitcoin is well-positioned for further gains as the year closes and the market gears up for a potentially bullish 2025.
