Bitcoin (BTC) has hit a new all time high of $111,087, up 3% in a day and finally breaking above the long held resistance zone of $108,000. The daily close above the highs is a big deal for the crypto markets. BTC is now in a rising channel since April, with higher highs and higher lows. Technically the breakout is strong. MACD has just given a bullish crossover and the 50 day EMA ($96,956) is rising, the long term trend is strong. Bitcoin Price Chart – Source: Tradingview If BTC holds above $113,369, we may see the next resistance levels at $117,141 and $120,913. But price is at the top of the channel so a pullback to $108,000 could be a healthy reset and a second chance long. Regulation Boosts Investor Confidence Beyond the charts, Bitcoin’s breakout is being driven by big regulatory tailwinds. In Texas, the state lawmakers approved Senate Bill 21 , allowing the state to create a Bitcoin reserve. Once signed into law, Texas will be the second US state after New Hampshire to hold crypto on its balance sheet, a big step in legitimizing Bitcoin as a treasury asset. JUST IN: The Texas House has officially passed the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill (SB21). Using rainy day funds, Texas could purchase 217,654 BTC assuming a BTC price of $109,219.

This tighter framework will attract institutional capital and solidify Bitcoin as a regulated and strategic hedge in global finance. These policy changes reduce uncertainty and mean crypto is becoming part of the mainstream financial infrastructure – key for long term adoption and capital inflow. Macro Tailwinds Fuel Bullish Outlook for Bitcoin Bitcoin’s rally comes as traditional markets are getting nervous. A disappointing US Treasury auction pushed 20 year bond yields above 5.1%, 10 year and 30 year yields are also spiking. This bond market chaos is driving investors to Bitcoin as a macro hedge. Geopolitical tensions – tariffs and currency concerns – are also eroding faith in fiat systems. $110K BITCOIN HAS ENTERED THE CHAT Bitcoin just cracked six figures guess it finally remembered the password.
