Stablecoin surge fuels Bitcoin: Will the $100K barrier finally break?
Bitcoin approaches the $100,000 milestone, driven by stablecoin inflows and strong on-chain metrics signaling bullish momentum.
- Consistent stablecoin inflows into exchanges are fueling Bitcoin’s price stability above $96,000.
- Bitcoin’s MVRV ratio at 2.69 and rising open interest suggest a bullish trend with minimal risks.
Bitcoin’s [BTC] journey toward breaching the $100,000 mark remains closely watched as the cryptocurrency maintains price stability above $96,000.
Despite achieving an all-time high (ATH) of $99,645 on 22nd November, Bitcoin has resisted significant corrections, trading at $98,083 at the time of writing. This resilience suggests a
strong foundation, with market participants awaiting its next move.One key observation behind this price stability has been the steady inflow of stablecoins into exchanges. According to SignalQuant, a CryptoQuant analyst, the trend of stablecoin net inflows has boosted Bitcoin’s ability to sustain higher lows.

According to the analyst, this steady inflow has minimized the potential for major sell-offs, reinforcing the bullish momentum seen in Bitcoin’s recent performance.
Market fundamentals and Bitcoin’s future path
To better understand BTC’s potential trajectory, it’s important to analyze key market fundamentals. The MVRV ratio, a popular on-chain metric, provides valuable insights.
The MVRV ratio is calculated by dividing Bitcoin’s market cap by its realized cap, reflecting whether the asset is overvalued or undervalued.

Historically, an MVRV ratio below 1 signals a market bottom, while values above 3.7 suggest a potential market peak. With Bitcoin’s MVRV ratio currently at 2.69, the metric indicates that the market is leaning toward optimism but remains below critical overvaluation levels.
This suggests room for further price growth while maintaining a cautious stance on overextension.
