Crypto Market Cap Approaches $4 Trillion as Bitcoin Breaches $100,000

Crypto investors rejoiced on Thursday as Bitcoin finally hit the highly anticipated $100,000 milestone.

BTC soared to an all-time high of $103,680 before retracing to $101,000. The world’s most valuable digital asset is now worth more than $2 trillion, making it the seventh-largest asset ahead of Saudi Aramco ($1.8T) and behind Google ($2.13T).

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump congratulated the crypto community on his Truth Social platform, positing, “CONGRATULATIONS BITCOINERS!!! $100,000!!! YOU’RE WELCOME!!! Together, we will Make America Great Again!”

Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) gained 1.5% and 2.5%, respectively, as the overall crypto market capitalization rose 3% to $3.85 trillion.

The rally is being fueled by spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which continue to attract brisk inflows. Ether ETFs pulled in $324 million over the past three trading days, while Bitcoin funds racked up over $1.5 billion in inflows over the same period.

Among the top 100 digital assets by market capitalization, SUI, Worldcoin (WLD), Render (RNDR), and HYPE were the day’s biggest winners, rallying by 11% or more.
