Jakarta, Pintu News – Bitcoin (BTC) saw an increase of more than 1% during Monday’s Asian trading session, marking a potential fifth consecutive day of gains.
During the Asian trading session, Bitcoin (BTC) recorded a gain of over 1%, which puts it on track to achieve a five-day winning streak, which is the longest since early October. From CoinDesk data, Bitcoin (BTC) jumped from around $91,480 to $92,500. At one point, the price even reached over $93,000. Other major cryptos such as Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Ethereum (ETH) also saw gains of between 0.7% to 1%.

Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research who was recently voted as a top crypto analyst, conveyed via Telegram message to CoinDesk that market sentiment is improving. According to him, both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) are transitioning to a bullish trending regime. “We are being constructive after the expiration of late December maturing options, anticipating that tax loss selling will subside and trading desks will gain flexibility to apply risk in the new year,” Thielen added.
Bitcoin’s (BTC) latest rise coincides with rising geopolitical tensions due to the US arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. This is increasingly seen as an indication that cryptocurrencies are attracting demand as a safe haven.
Ryan Lee, principal analyst at cryptocurrency exchange Bitget, stated via email that the simultaneous surge in various asset classes following the US military action in Venezuela is a classic example of flight to quality. “Safe havens like gold and silver saw sharp gains as investors priced in geopolitical risks that could persist or escalate,” Lee said.
Looking ahead, the market outlook remains bullish as long as Bitcoin (BTC) price holds above its 21-day exponential average. “Initial ETF inflows have been encouraging, and as long as Bitcoin (BTC) holds above its 21-day moving average, the short-term bias remains skewed to the upside,” Thielen said. On Friday, 11 Bitcoin (BTC) spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) attracted more than $471 million, the largest amount in a single day since Nov. 11, according to data source SoSoValue.
With back-to-back gains not seen in recent months, Bitcoin (BTC) is showing strong signs of recovery. Investors and analysts alike are optimistic about the near-term outlook, driven by improving market conditions and global geopolitical dynamics.
