Is $100,000 the Magic Number to Bring Back Bitcoin Investors? Anthony Scaramucci Makes a Bold Case to Buy BTC Now.

Key PointsSkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci believes long-term Bitcoin holders viewed $100k as a key price level.

Anthony Scaramucci, founder of SkyBridge Capital, believes that big, round numbers attract investors, and in the case of Bitcoin, $100,000 is an important level to consider. This number may seem like a mere coincidence, but it actually highlights a crucial aspect of the cryptocurrency market. Scaramucci points out that even after a rally, Bitcoin is still more than 33% below its all-time high reached in 2025.

The cryptocurrency took a massive tumble, dropping from above $100,000 to significantly below that figure. According to Scaramucci, the reason behind this decline is that long-term holders of Bitcoin viewed the big round number as a sell trigger. This is not an unusual reaction, as significant round numbers such as the S&P 500 index have also been met with scrutiny when passed.

As illustrated in a Getty Images image, the market reacts to these milestones, and Bitcoin is no exception.
