Bitcoin held its position around the $100,000 mark this week, experiencing moderate volatility as traders digested recent gains. The leading cryptocurrency briefly touched $102,500 before returning to its current trading range between $97,000 and $101,000.
Ethereum has outperformed the broader market, rising 12% over the past three days to hit $7,800, its highest level since December. Analysts attribute the surge to the successful implementation of the network’s latest technical upgrade, which has increased transaction speeds and reduced gas fees.
