El bitcoin supera los 81.000 dólares al subir casi un 5%

Bitcoin broke past the $81,000 mark, climbing nearly 5% in value, according to recent market data. This significant surge follows the announcement of a U.S. Treasury debt buying plan, which has rekindled interest in the digital asset. The leading cryptocurrency has once again surpassed the psychological barrier of $80,000, a level not seen since May of last year.

At the close of European exchanges, Bitcoin was trading at $80,943, despite experiencing a 7.6% decline this year and a 29.6% drop since its all-time high in October 2025, when the price peaked at $126,000. The recent growth in Bitcoin's value can be attributed to the U.S. Treasury's recent measures, which aim to double the volume of its long-term bond purchases and use the General Account to support the long-term segment of the bond market.

These initiatives have injected liquidity back into the market, reviving interest in Bitcoin, which has historically benefited from increased market liquidity. While U.S. inflation remains above the 2% target, any indication of a significant cooling of this indicator in the coming months could provide further impetus for Bitcoin, driven by a more accommodative monetary policy outlook.

In the final months of 2026, seasonality may also play a role, with historical data suggesting that the fourth quarter often delivers the best performance of the year for Bitcoin.
