$BTC O Bitcoin surpassed $90,000 today, April 22, 2025, for the first time in seven weeks. This increase is driven by factors such as the rise of gold, which reached $3,500 per ounce, and distrust in American assets, leading investors to seek Bitcoin as a hedge, according to Valor Econômico. Additionally, Paul Atkins' ownership of the presidency of the SEC in the U.S., known for being favorable to cryptocurrencies, also contributed to the optimism, according to Empiricus.
