What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that runs on blockchain technology without a central bank or government backing, functioning as both a speculative trading asset and a store of value. Its price is shaped by layered forces: broad drivers such as US interest-rate policy, institutional ETF flows, and macroeconomic risk appetite set the trend, while adoption news, regulatory developments, and sentiment toward other major tokens such as Ethereum add further pressure. On a narrower level, exchange activity, large holder movements, and halving-cycle dynamics can move prices sharply. Traders follow Bitcoin for three reasons: its round-the-clock liquidity, its position as the crypto market's benchmark asset, and the trading opportunities created by its historically high volatility. In early 2025, the US established a strategic Bitcoin reserve and Bitcoin later reached a new all-time high near $126,210 on October 6, 2025, driven by strong institutional inflows and regulatory clarity, before falling by more than half to around $60,000 in the following months as risk sentiment cooled.
