Bitcoin is nearing a significant rally toward $100,000, driven by China's recent economic stimulus measures and Russia's move to use cryptocurrency in trade with China. Both technical charts and market fundamentals point to a bullish surge for the leading digital asset.

As the price of bitcoin consolidates near $64,000, it is being fought for by both bulls and bears. Both technical and fundamental research hint to a rally to $100,000 in the near future. Broad monetary stimulus measures and rate cuts were announced by China's central bank to stimulate the economy, which had a significant effect on Bitcoin.

China's Stimulus Sparks Bitcoin Optimism

On September 24, Pan Gongsheng, governor of the People's Bank of China (PBoC), proposed a number of steps to boost the Chinese economy. This comes as worries mount that the 5% growth target for 2024 would be unachievable. Reuters stated that important short-term interest rates will be slashed by 20 basis points, the reserve requirement ratio would be cut by 50 basis points, and monetary stimulus would be implemented.

Additionally, the PBoC intends to loosen regulations for second-home purchases and reduce interest rates on mortgages worth up to $5.3 trillion. The Shanghai Stock Exchange gained over 4% in just one day as a result of this. Following the lead of the Chinese stock market, stock markets around the world are up today. Nevertheless, in the midst of stock market purchases, the price of Bitcoin exhibits volatility.

Russia Turns to Bitcoin in Trade with China

"This is the most significant PBOC stimulus package since the early days of the pandemic," commented Julian Evans-Pritchard, an economist at Capital Economics.

Russian authorities' recent shift to cryptocurrency as a payment method for commerce with China is another factor that could cause Bitcoin's price to reach $100,000. Russia will reportedly pay China with bitcoin for military supplies, according to Moscow Times.

New Legal Framework Paves Way for Crypto Use

According to CoinGape, Russia's government is planning to implement a new legal framework that will allow a select number of importers to pay for Chinese goods using digital currencies. People from the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, various banks, and electronics firms were among them.

Among the world's most powerful economies are the member states that make up the BRICS Group, and they are the principal target. The member nations of this alliance are intent on dismantling the USD's hegemony.

Bitcoin Eyes $100,000 Amid Global Economic Shifts

Bitcoin price hopes for a new all-time high as market sentiment improves following 50 basis point Fed rate decreases. Bitcoin ETF spot inflows will not propel the next wave of price appreciation, according to experts.

The average price of Bitcoin is expected to rise to $100,000 to $150,000 this cycle, according to Wall Street titans, analysts, and financial specialists. A cup-and-handle pattern is also developing on the Bitcoin price chart, suggesting that a huge bullish rally could occur upon breakout. Bitcoin, however, must first consolidate and break above $67K before it can climb to $100,000.
