BTC Surges Past $79,300 Resistance Level
Bitcoin has broken through its $78,000 resistance level and is now trading above $79,300 for the first time in 11 weeks.
This represents a 3.8% gain over the past 24 hours, with CoinGecko data showing a total market cap of over $1.57 trillion for BTC alone.
The surge in price has been accompanied by increased trading volume, with approximately $51.9 billion worth of Bitcoin changing hands over the same period.
Investor Kevin O'Leary recently stated that he has narrowed his crypto portfolio to Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) only, citing a lack of institutional durability in alternative tokens.
