Bitcoin made a strong move higher over the last 24 hours, climbing past $69,000 for the first time since June. The sudden price surge caught the attention of traders across the market, pushing overall optimism up after weeks of sideways trading.

During a recent CNBC interview, SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci pointed to the current market cycle and tighter supply as major catalysts. He believes these supply dynamics could push the top cryptocurrency past the historic $100,000 milestone soon.

Traders are now watching to see if Bitcoin can hold these new price levels and build enough momentum to challenge its previous all time highs. Keep an eye on daily trading volume and broader market sentiment as the weekly close approaches.
