After a weekend break, Bitcoin regained strength and climbed to a new all-time high of over $122,000 during Monday trading.
New week, new record
The price of BTC broke records on Monday, surpassing $122,000 for the first time in history. This increase came despite new 30% US tariffs on the EU and Mexico announced over the weekend. Michael Saylor, co-founder of Strategy, hinted that the company had recently made further purchases, which the community had expected as the company did not announce any purchases last Monday. Robert Kiyosaki, author of “Rich Dad, Poor Dad,” also added to the positive mood.
In his post, he praised Bitcoin for holding above key levels and said he plans to buy more. Bitcoin has recently been less sensitive to negative news that previously led to sharp sell-offs. For some investors, this is proof that the world’s largest cryptocurrency is maturing and gradually breaking away from traditional market psychology.
Altcoins are riding the wave
The record was preceded by several days of growth – since last Wednesday, Bitcoin has gained over $14,000. The growth was accompanied by positive signals from well-known figures in the crypto world, which strengthened investor confidence. Activity on the market also increased among small holders, indicating a return of broader retail interest.
The positive development also spilled over into altcoins. Ethereum surpassed the psychological level of $3,000 and trading volumes are growing again. XRP strengthened by more than 7% to reach $3, its highest level in recent months. Optimism subsequently spread to smaller digital assets, which began to attract more attention from investors looking for new opportunities.
