Bitcoin Starts 2026 With Strong Momentum

[cryptohog]

Bitcoin has begun 2026 on a solid footing, climbing 6.54% year to date despite ongoing geopolitical uncertainty. The move signals renewed strength after a cautious end to 2025, as market optimism slowly returns across risk assets.

Earlier this week, Bitcoin briefly surged above $95,000, its highest level since early December, before consolidating near $93,230. Analysts point to a mix of fresh New Year capital allocations, easing post-tax selling pressure, and rising demand for alternative safe-haven assets following heightened global tensions.

ETF inflows have reinforced the recovery narrative. On January 5 alone, Bitcoin-related ETFs recorded nearly $695 million in inflows, marking their strongest single day in three months and suggesting institutional interest is rebuilding.
