The cryptocurrency market experienced a remarkable rebound last week after experiencing a sharp downturn at the end of September. Investor interest has been rekindled as demand for safe-haven assets surged, fueled by uncertainty surrounding the US government’s first shutdown in six years. Bitcoin (BTC), particularly, is gaining traction, with experts predicting it may reach new all-time highs of $150,000 before year-end. This rebound is being driven by investors seeking security amid market volatility and a potential surge in demand for Bitcoin as a safe haven asset. Notably, France’s central bank’s ballooning financial deficit might further propel Bitcoin, potentially leading to billions of euros in new money printing by the European Central Bank (ECB), signaling increased liquidity flowing into Bitcoin. 1
