🚀 BITCOIN jumps above $53,000

5:13 PM 26 February 2024

📈 Bitcoin rallies to the highest level since December 2021

A significant shift in sentiment towards cryptocurrencies can be spotted in the afternoon today. Bitcoin erased previous losses and jumped almost 5% since noon. The coin climbed above $53,000 mark for the first time since early-December 2021. Altcoins are also experiencing strong gains amid stable inflows to ETH funds as well as lower outflows from Grayscale Bitcoin Trust.  Valuation gap between the biggest coins, like Bitcoin and Ethereum, and altcoins is narrowing. Bitcoin and Ethereum were the two cryptocurrencies that outperformed at the beginning of 2024 amid increased interest due to ETFs. Altcoins have been lagging behind up to now.
