This market asks whether Bitcoin will record a qualifying intraday price of at least $100,000 again before January 1, 2035, not whether it has ever crossed that level. Bitcoin is currently reported around $73,000–$77,000, but it previously reached roughly $126,000, while the long horizon leaves substantial opportunity for another cycle-driven spike. Institutional access through spot ETFs and regulated exchange-traded infrastructure supports the YES case, although volatility, leverage, regulation, technological competition, macro liquidity, and possible loss of institutional demand remain meaningful risks. External sentiment does not provide an exact 2035 match, so the existing 98-cent quote is retained; shorter-horizon projections showing a sizable chance of $95,000 by year-end 2026 are directionally supportive but are not a substitute for the decade-long event.
