BTC Surges Past $79,000 as Trading Volume Skyrockets
Bitcoin (BTC) has broken above $79,300 for the first time in 11 weeks, marking a 3.8% gain in the past 24 hours.
The surge in price comes with a significant increase in trading volume, reaching approximately $51.9 billion according to CoinGecko data.
This move represents a clear break above the $78,000 resistance level that had capped multiple attempts in recent weeks.
Investor Kevin O'Leary has narrowed his crypto portfolio to Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) only, citing a lack of institutional durability in alternative tokens, according to Fox Business.
