A combination of institutional interest, economic uncertainty, growing acceptance, and technological progress is driving Bitcoin’s surge.

 
Many factors contribute to Bitcoin’s upward momentum. First and foremost, increasing institutional adoption plays a pivotal role.

Moreover, growing mainstream acceptance and awareness are fueling demand. More merchants are accepting Bitcoin as a form of payment, making it increasingly accessible to consumers.
