Highest One-day Rise Since Mid-June
As technology and growth companies have been shaken in recent weeks by concerns about the Federal Reserve raising interest rates faster than anticipated to contain inflation, Bitcoin had its highest one-day rise since mid-June of 11 percent or more. This is a remarkable rebound after weeks of volatility. Meanwhile, US stocks rose, with the high-tech Nasdaq gaining ground despite the week’s high level of volatility, including Amazon’s substantial expansion and Meta Platforms’ poor results.
These coordinated movements demonstrated how Bitcoin has become significantly more widespread as an individual portfolio in the wake of the recent volatility. Another crypto asset listed, Riot Blockchain, saw its share price rise when it announced that its Bitcoin output had more than quadrupled in January from a year earlier, thanks to the market’s comeback.
According to CoinMarketCap, the Bitcoin price today is $41,420.67 USD with a 24-hour trading volume of $30,449,733,330 USD. Bitcoin is up 9.08% in the last 24 hours.
