New Delhi: Leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin surged past the $1,21,000 milestone for the first time on Monday. According to data from CoinMarketCap, the cryptocurrency went up 2.75 per cent at $1,21,097.94 in early trade.

Market capitalisation of Bitcoin reached at $2.41 trillion, up 2.85 per cent, with trading volumes at $60.69 billion, up 33.12 per cent, the data showed. This year alone, the cryptocurrency has surged more than 29 per cent, according to reports.


Ethereum, the second largest cryptocurrency, jumped 3.28 per cent to $3,054.96, with market cap at $368.77 billion and trade volume at $21.62 billion, CoinMarketCap data showed. According to market watchers, Bitcoin’s surge is driven by longer-term institutional buyers and this will propel it to $125,000 in the next month or two. “Institutional demand remains a major driver, with US Bitcoin ETFs surpassing $50 billion in net inflows to date. BlackRock alone holds over $65 billion in BTC, while corporate treasuries continue to accumulate,” said Himanshu Maradiya, Founder and Chairman, CIFDAQ.

Optimism is also fuelled by the US President Donald Trump administration’s pro-crypto stance pushing for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and easing ETF approval norms. “Macroeconomic shifts like a weaker dollar, rising treasury demand, and sovereign credit downgrades are further positioning BTC as a hedge. With regulatory clarity improving and Coinbase entering the S&P 500, Bitcoin’s case as a mainstream asset has never looked stronger,” he added.

Importantly, this rally is not purely retail-driven. It reflects the increasing role of virtual digital assets in diversified investment portfolios and a growing recognition of the value of Bitcoin.

“Momentum is also being supported by advancements in tokenization, clearer regulatory frameworks, and the expanding adoption of Web3 infrastructure,” said Kushal Manupati, Regional Growth and Ops Lead of South Asia at Binance.

The US House of Representatives is slated to start deliberations on a series of crypto bills on Monday, aimed at providing a clearer regulatory framework for the industry.
