Bitcoin’s long-term value as a strategic asset has been further cemented with its price now towards $105,000. More and more the people I talk to view cryptocurrency as a necessary element of their overall portfolio strategy. It’s a hedge against inflation and personal financial sovereignty. This change in perception is underpinned by an increasing institutional investment and the backing of high-profile advocates.
As of Sunday evening June 15, 2025, the price of one Bitcoin hovered around $105,528. Coatue Management’s Philippe Laffont just underscored how important Bitcoin has become—calling it “central” to strategy. With a weak correlation with equities, the cryptocurrency poses an alluring choice to hold as a diversifier.
The subsequent approval of Bitcoin ETFs has only helped to reinforce its standing in the financial realm. More than $132 billion is currently tracked by these ETFs, a clear sign of the institutional conviction behind this trend. Bitcoin inflation hedge properties due to its limited supply and global demand make Bitcoin ever more attractive.
Even Donald Trump's media company has formalized its Bitcoin Treasury initiative, highlighting the cryptocurrency's increasing acceptance across diverse sectors. This latest development further cements the growing belief that Bitcoin will be at the center of personal financial sovereignty. First, it provides individuals the agency to self-custody their own financial assets away from centralized custodians.
Bitcoin’s increasing price enhances its aspirational value even further. Enough people think that “owning one Bitcoin” is today’s version of the American dream. Its growing unattainability is a reflection of a deep-seated conviction in decentralized finance and sound money principles. No longer just a hedging or speculative investment, Bitcoin signifies a long-term commitment to a financial future outside of established institutions.
Bitcoin printing a golden cross. Its 50-day moving average recently crossed above the 200-day moving average, a so-called golden cross indicating a bullish trend. The near term resistance area is between $106,000 and $110,000 and the pivotal support areas are at $104,000 and $100,000.
