Bitcoin hits record high just shy of $112,000

UNITED STATES, JUL 9 – Bitcoin's price surge to $112,000 was driven by Nvidia's stock rally and increased corporate bitcoin purchases that exceeded inflows into bitcoin exchange traded funds, analysts said.

  • Bitcoin reached a new all-time high just above $112,000 in mid-May 2025, primarily on U.S. markets and backed by strong institutional demand.
  • This surge followed growing trust in Bitcoin as a reserve asset, fueled by corporate treasury conversions and institutional endorsements, marking a structural shift in market psychology.
  • Additional factors included a rally led by Nvidia’s $4 trillion market cap milestone, rising Bitcoin ETF inflows exceeding $75 million, and a 6.46% jump in Bitcoin open interest within 24 hours.
  • Data showed Bitcoin trading near $111,000 while its trading volume increased over 38%, and Santiment noted the breakout followed panic selling by some retail investors.
  • This record high suggests Bitcoin's transition to an essential holding as long-term investor wallets hit record levels, and it signals amplified appetite amid macroeconomic instability and advancing crypto legislation.
