On Thursday, Bitcoin reached its current all-time high of $76,999. Market optimism is increasing as Bitcoin retested the $76,000 mark in Friday's trading session, reaching highs of $76,483 before slightly retreating.

According to CoinMarketCap data, Bitcoin is now priced at $76,160, up roughly 2% in the last 24 hours and 7% over the last seven days. The cryptocurrency's almost 80% gain in 2024, powered in part by a Federal Reserve interest rate reduction, outperforms traditional investments such as global stocks and gold.

Following many months of consolidation and sideways market activity, Bitcoin reached fresh all-time highs this week. According to Glassnode, volatility persists on options markets, but on-chain capital inflows rise, implying a steady stream of new demand.
