Bitcoin has experienced a week of volatility, causing significant price fluctuations. However, it seems to have found a balance point, hovering between $68,000 and $69,000. On the other hand, Ethereum has resumed its upward trajectory, surpassing the $3,900 level, thanks to the approval of spot ETFs based on ETH in the United States.
Bitcoin, often seen as a trendsetter in the market, was greatly influenced by positive rumors surrounding the potential approval of spot Ethereum ETFs by the US SEC. After a notable increase of $5,000 on Monday, the cryptocurrency reached nearly $72,000, its highest point in weeks.
Unfortunately, the optimism was short-lived, and Bitcoin experienced a sudden drop to $66,250 just moments before the US SEC confirmed the approval of eight of these financial products. However, buyers stepped in and helped stabilize the price, allowing it to recover to $69,500 on Saturday. Despite this recovery, Bitcoin has not been able to surpass the $70,000 mark and is currently trading around $68,500, down 1%, with a market capitalization of $1.35 trillion.
Meanwhile, Ethereum not only continued its upward trend but also solidified its position above $3,900 with a 3.5% increase. Its strong performance indicates resilience in a market where other large-cap cryptocurrencies are moving slowly.
In the world of meme coins, PEPE continues to surprise with a 13% increase since yesterday, reaching a new all-time high of just over $0.000017. Other cryptocurrencies like FLOKI and BONK also showed notable performances with similar valuations.
