# 🟣 New Bitcoin All-Time High Unlocked > $100k Coming in 3 Weeks? **Published by:** [Web3 Academy](https://paragraph.com/@web3academy/) **Published on:** 2024-03-06 **Categories:** cryptocurrency, web3 **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@web3academy/bitcoin-hits-new-all-time-high ## Content GM DOers! 😎 Bitcoin is up 15% in the last week, 54% in the last month, 150% in the last 6 months, and almost 200% in the past year. 🚀 Source: TradingView Due to Bitcoin’s incredible rally over the past year, it has hit a new all-time high yesterday, at $69,000. 🥳 Binance @binance #Bitcoin has officially broken it's all time high on #Binance! $69,000 9,811 20:34 • 5 Mar 2024 Immediately after kissing new highs, $BTC dropped to $59,000 (this is normal), only to bounce back quickly to around $65,000. Source: TradingView The immediate bounce made it clear that the demand for Bitcoin is immense and with the halving coming in about 45 days, many are wondering if this could be the top for Bitcoin or if this is just the start of the real bull market. Source: CoinMarketCap I think this is just the start of the real bull market. To show you why, I will cover: Bitcoin’s inflows & the huge demand Bitcoin’s potential massive supply shock Can Bitcoin double in the next 3 weeks? Should you hold $ETH or $BTC right now? Let’s go! ⏬ Bitcoin’s Inflows & Huge Demand 🌊 Ever since the ETF approval, the demand coming from TradFi has been overwhelming for Bitcoin. The total $BTC held in ETFs is now at all time highs, nearing 800,000 $BTC. Source: Apollo Keep in mind though, that most of this Bitcoin is still being held in Grayscale’s $GBTC, the fund out of which investors are exiting for 2 reasons: Grayscale is charging a 1.5% yearly management fee, which is 5–6 times higher than other ETF issuers. A lot of investors bought GBTC at a 40% discount, and now it's at 0%, so they are taking profits. So, if we exclude $GBTC from this discussion, we can see that BlackRock’s $IBIT ETF is leading the way, becoming the preferred Bitcoin ETF (as expected). Source: Apollo By the way… Even with the significant $GBTC outflows, the net flows are still positive. On Monday, ETFs added an extra 8,800 Bitcoin to their holdings. Source: Apollo With over $560 million flowing into ETFs, Monday marked the 5th biggest day in terms of inflows. Bitcoin Archive @BTC_Archive JUST IN: $562m #Bitcoin ETF inflows yesterday. The 5th biggest day! 3,009 18:06 • 5 Mar 2024 Oh, and let’s not forget that the Bitcoin ETF is blowing the Gold ETF out of the water. Will @WClementeIII Bitcoin ETF inflows have absolutely blown Gold's out of the water. Not even close, utterly dwarfed, decimated. Thanks for playing, non-fixed supply boomer rock enjoyoors. 4,460 1:07 • 3 Mar 2024 Apart from the huge demand for Bitcoin ETFs, we also have BlackRock planning to buy Bitcoin ETFs for its Strategic Income Opportunities Fund ($BSIIX) to diversify and potentially enhance the fund's returns. Watcher.Guru @WatcherGuru JUST IN: BlackRock files to purchase #Bitcoin ETFs for its Strategic Income Opportunities Fund. 9,783 3:44 • 5 Mar 2024 Then we also have Stanford allocating 7% of their portfolio to Bitcoin. Bitcoin Archive @BTC_Archive JUST IN: Stanford University's Blyth Fund has bought #Bitcoin with a ~7% allocation of the total portfolio. 7,804 4:00 • 5 Mar 2024 As predicted before, TradFi is FOMOing into Bitcoin at all-time highs. Love to see it. A Massive Bitcoin Supply Shock is Brewing ♨ So we already established the demand for Bitcoin is through the roof. Let’s see if there’s enough supply to match this demand. Spoiler alert: There’s not enough Bitcoin for everyone! Bitcoin on exchanges is at around 2.3 million $BTC, levels not seen since 2017. This means that only a total of 11% of all the Bitcoin in existence is sitting on exchanges right now. So demand is high, and nobody is selling. When it comes to newly issued Bitcoin, there’s only around 800 Bitcoin being mined per day. In about 45 days, this number will be cut in half. A massive supply shock is just around the corner for Bitcoin! Quinten | 048.eth @QuintenFrancois Supply shock #Bitcoin 143 14:51 • 5 Mar 2024 Can Bitcoin DOUBLE in 3 Weeks? 🚀 Here’s the deal… When an asset surpasses its all-time high, it enters price discovery – i.e., it reaches a price level for which there is no historical reference, leading the market to explore and establish a new value based on current supply and demand dynamics. When Bitcoin exceeds and sustains above the $69,000 threshold, it will enter a phase of price discovery. Historically, during such phases, Bitcoin has typically doubled in value within just three weeks, on average. Dylan LeClair 🟠 @DylanLeClair_ The time it took $BTC to double after previous breaks of ATHs: Dec 2020: 18 days March 2017: 84 days Nov 2013: 10 days March 2013: 18 days 6,286 22:56 • 4 Mar 2024 Why is this happening over and over again? It’s simple: People ignore assets when their prices are low and only notice them when they hit record highs. Slowly, then all at once – you know the drill. This creates a flywheel where the higher the price, the higher the demand. ♻ That’s why we’re now seeing ETF demand at an all-time high, led by TradFi investors. When it comes to retail investors, we have signs that they’re lurking back. Coinbase keeps crashing Crypto gurus are growing insanely on YouTube and X Google searches for “Bitcoin” are up massively All of this will intensify once Bitcoin enters price discovery and hits new highs every day. When this happens, your uncles & aunts will come calling, asking you how they can buy crypto. At that point, nobody can predict how high Bitcoin will go and whether or not it’ll double in ~20 days post-ATH like it did in the past. It’ll be complete mania. Regardless of what happens, 1 thing is for sure! We will have continuous pull-backs. No bull market is a straight line up. There will be days and weeks when we’ll experience 10%, 20% or even 30% drops! Make sure you’re expecting them. I have a PRO report coming up soon that’ll teach you how to prepare for that. upgrade to get it in your inbox. Go PRO Today Wrapping Up — $ETH or $BTC? 🤔 Bitcoin is a great asset. I have no doubt it’ll reach and surpass $100,000 during this bull cycle. But is Bitcoin the best opportunity for investors right now? I would argue it’s not! Why? Because historically, whenever Bitcoin surpassed its ATH, it was the start of $ETH outperforming $BTC big time. Here’s what happened in 2020: $BTC did a 3x from $20k in just a few months $ETH did an 8x from $550 in that same time period Kyle Reidhead @KyleReidhead The last time #bitcoin passed previous cycles ATH, a few days later marked the low in $ETH/$BTC $ETH then massively outperformed Bitcoin for the next year $BTC did a 3x from $20k in just a few months $ETH did an 8x from $550 in those same few months Will history repeat? 9 6:51 • 5 Mar 2024 Will history repeat? I don’t know. But from a risk/reward perspective, I personally prefer to hold $ETH instead of $BTC during these times. I’m interested in your take, though! What’s your biggest bag?
