Bitcoin Soars to New All-Time High of $115,000: But Why?

On the 10th of July, 2025, Bitcoin (BTC) reached an unprecedented milestone, the $115,000 barrier. It’s another all-time-high price that early investors couldn’t even dream of, let alone arrive at. 

Those who have like crazy hoarders since the early days feel less like nutters on a sinking get-rich-quick ride to Crazy Town. But that crazy boat could sail back there at any time, so before prices go full volatile, let’s look at the happenings that could be causing this upward pressure on price.

What ARE the recent events that have propelled Bitcoin towards this fabled moon that every crypto bro or sis dreams of?

Institutional Adoption

Corporate adoption is playing a critical role in the upwards pressure on the BTC price. Multiple companies have increased their Bitcoin holdings significantly since the start of 2025. 

For instance, in June 2025, Metaplanet 1,234 BTC for $132.7 million. Metaplanet Inc is a Japanese company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange that has shifted its focus to Bitcoin. Established in 1999, it has a background in finance, trading, real estate, but has now pivoted to BTC.

Metaplanet now , after some recent Bitcoin buying sprees. Also, financial mammoth BlackRock is still , and now owns more Bitcoin than MicroStrategy, who themselves are like a squirrel hoarding nuts in Autumn.

The design platform Figma made headlines in July with a and plans to buy US$30m more, marking one of the largest corporate Bitcoin buys of the year. 

DDC Enterprise, a NYSE-listed company to acquire Bitcoin for its treasury, signalling a significant commitment to integrating cryptocurrency into its financial strategy. The company sells convenient ready-to-cook plant-based meals. Who would have ever thought that a food company would get in deep with Bitcoin? That there is a vibe that transcends the tech company frequency, which is interesting in itself.

And you know the corporate bros. They all just sit around copying each other until it’s a last-man-standing survival death match. It seems like the last-man-standing scenario is a while away yet.

Looking Ahead

The Bitcoin-accumulation trend is expected by some analysts to continue, driven by a crypto-friendly regulatory environment under the Trump administration. Others say this is the end of the cycle. However Bitcoin seems to have entered a new phase of being seen as an asset ripe for treasury holdings.

But let’s not get overexcited, sweaty, and be buying the mega yacht just yet. Volatility is always stalking the crypto markets, and all of this could come crashing down at any moment. 

A lot of things affect crypto prices. Aliens could arrive from space, and cause all markets to crash. Donald Trump could decide to retire to Vanuatu. Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto could wake from his deep sleep and sell all his Bitcoin holdings at once. Anything could happen that could trigger the price of Bitcoin to plummet to the floor like a drunken sailor. 

Short-term volatility remains a possibility, but from here, it seems that the long-term outlook for Bitcoin could be strong.

As Bitcoin continues to break records, it is actually showing that there is growing acceptance of cryptocurrencies in the global financial system. 

Hopefully more retail buyers can get a hold of some before Blackrock inhales it all.
