After a consolidation phase under its previous peak, Bitcoin establishes a new ATH, confirming its bullish momentum. Let's examine the prospects for BTC's evolution.
The sector of crypto related to artificial intelligence is experiencing rapid growth in 2024. After a chaotic period marked by high volatility and geopolitical challenges such as U.S. restrictions on AI chip exports to China, the market has regained new momentum. This spectacular recovery has resulted in a 208% growth over the year, propelling the total market capitalization of the sector to $61.5 billion. Several dynamics are at play behind this remarkable rebound. On one hand, the increasing adoption of blockchain solutions powered by artificial intelligence has bolstered the credibility of these technologies. On the other hand, the heightened demand for utility tokens that can support expanding ecosystems in areas such as gaming, entertainment, and decentralized services has solidified this trend.

The bankruptcy of FTX has been a real earthquake in the history of the cryptosphere. It has deeply shaken investor confidence and revealed significant structural flaws within the industry. Nearly two years after its collapse in November 2022, the bankrupt exchange is back in the spotlight with an ambitious reorganization plan, recently validated by the American judiciary. This plan includes an unprecedented repayment to creditors, which will begin on January 3, 2025, with a promise of restitution of up to 118% of the declared debts. To orchestrate this operation, FTX relies on well-known players in the sector. Kraken, experienced in such procedures after having played a key role in managing the Mt. Gox case, and BitGo, an expert in secure crypto custody, have been chosen to handle the repayments. Their involvement offers both security and transparency, two essential values to regain the trust of the creditors and ease the persistent tensions.

Every movement of its Bitcoins raises questions and speculations, awakening old demons in investors. The latest episode: the transfer of 1,620 BTC valued at 172 million dollars, shortly after a new record for Bitcoin around 107,000 dollars. This is enough to stir the markets without shaking their stability.
"In an age of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." This phrase by Orwell, taken from 1984, resonates strongly in our digital age and illustrates the struggle against censorship. Growing centralization threatens freedom of speech and individual sovereignty. States and institutions exploit censorship to control discourse, limiting innovation and diversity of ideas. Bitcoin stands as a powerful alternative to these drifts. Its decentralized architecture protects transactions and information from any attempts at control. By ensuring user autonomy, Bitcoin upholds the fundamental principles of a free and resilient civilization. Resisting censorship is crucial to preserving progress, openness, and creativity. In a world where censorship mechanisms proliferate, Bitcoin embodies a trust technology. This fight for freedom goes beyond economic issues: it lies at the heart of a genuine civilizational battle.
