Bitcoin (BTC) has once again captured the spotlight, surging past the \$70,000 mark for the first time in over two months. The rally is fueled by a sharp rise in institutional interest, alongside renewed optimism surrounding spot Bitcoin ETFs and macroeconomic tailwinds.
At the time of writing, BTC is trading at \$70,843, up over 8% in the past 24 hours and 17% over the last 7 days. Analysts attribute the upward momentum to a combination of factors:
*BlackRock’s BTC ETF inflows** have topped \$1.2 billion this week, showing steady interest from traditional investors.
*US economic data** suggests a cooling inflation trend, raising the possibility of a Federal Reserve rate cut in the next quarter.
*Crypto-friendly regulations** in key jurisdictions like Hong Kong and the UAE are reinforcing global investor confidence.
> “We’re seeing a healthy mix of retail FOMO and institutional positioning,” said Rachel Lin, CEO of SynFutures. “Bitcoin is reaffirming its role as a digital hedge and a long-term store of value.”
Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) is also on the move, currently up 6% to \$3,850, driven by buzz around the upcoming Pectra upgrade and Layer 2 growth. Other altcoins such as Solana (SOL), Chainlink (LINK), and Toncoin (TON) have also posted strong double-digit gains.
