ETH and XRP Lead the Charge

Bitcoin (BTC) regained $120,000 on Thursday with modest gains, but the spotlight shifted to Ether (ETH) and XRP, which saw a surge in response to recent legislative developments in the United States.

Ether (ETH) jumped 8% to cross $3,600 for the first time since January - indicating a 40% increase in just two weeks.

XRP recorded a daily increase of 20%, reaching $3.64, its highest level in 2025.

These moves come after the U.S. House of Representatives passed three key bills on cryptocurrencies before the congressional recess in August.$ETH
