🚀 Bitcoin climbs to $108K - outperforming broader equities
🌐 Ethereum outpaces BTC - with 2% overnight gain
💪 Bitcoin Cash rallies again - weekly gains near 9%
📈 ETF decisions loom - with Grayscale and single-crypto filings in focus
Bitcoin is trading around $108,000 this morning on a wave of renewed optimism, outperforming the broader US stock market, which it’s been tracking closely in the past few weeks. Beating Bitcoin this morning, though, is Ethereum (ETH), which has gained more than 2% overnight. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) continues to stand out among the large-caps, rising another 4% in the past 24 hours, bringing its weekly gains to about 9%.
While many altcoins are dipping into the red this morning, Berachain (BERA) is a notable exception, rising roughly 4%.
Bitcoin’s more than 3% rise over the past week, and its consolidation around current price levels, is being cited by some as reinforcing its narrative as a flight-to-safety investment, particularly relevant given the current macroeconomic uncertainty.
In regulatory news, the Securities and Exchange Commission is set to decide by Tuesday next week whether Grayscale can convert one of its multi-crypto funds into an exchange-traded fund (ETF). This decision may influence other pending ETF applications tied to single cryptocurrencies such as Litecoin, Solana, XRP, and Dogecoin. As the weekend approaches, traders are watching closely, will Bitcoin make another push toward its all-time high of around $111,200?
