As Bitcoin (BTC) has surpassed the $30,000 mark, investors across the globe have taken note of the growing potential of crypto assets. This major milestone is also seen as a sign of faith in the global macro-economics and highlights the role cryptocurrency plays in offering an alternative to traditional finance sources. Recently, MicroStrategy, one of the largest Bitcoin (BTC) holders ended up in the green after 10 months of depths. This success story illustrates the resilience and value attached to the digital currency that hit an average price of $30,129.

The rising sentiment towards cryptocurrency is further underscored by its impressive status as the best performing asset class of 2023 with a reported 80% increase this year alone. Heads of business such Gaurav Dahake, the Chief Executive Officer at BNS Engineering, and Parth Chaturvedi, the Crypto Ecosystem Lead at CoinSwitch, are both highly optimistic of crypto's prospects in the coming months. While the former predicts BTC hitting $50,000 by mid-2024, the latter insists that Bitcoin's upcoming halving will spur bullish momentum. Both experts are confident in Bitcoin's capacity to continue to "decouple" or distance itself from traditional finance.

Fakhul Miah, the CEO of CreDa and Head of Growth for Elastos, supports the notion that Bitcoin's surge above $30K is indicative of an anticipated relaxation of monetary policy due to recent banking stress. He also believes that the industry's reception of Bitcoin has shifted from a primarily speculative asset to a viable investment, underlining the trust in its future.

Interestingly, Bitcoin (BTC) managed to skyrocket despite the liquidation of $174.2 million worth of trades in the past 24 hours, primarily from short positions. Reports also show that 31,864 traders were affected by the crash which is a testament to the digital asset's potential to recuperate volatility.

As 2019's Halving approaches, it is plausible that Bitcoin's value will continue to improve and make a lasting mark in the digital currency industry. Further examination of the phenomenon can be found in BeInCrypto's on-chain analysis. Ultimately, it is clear that the impressive performance of Bitcoin displays the immense trust in its future with investors from around the world turning to cryptocurrency for stability and security.
