Crypto markets wrapped up the week with momentum on their side. Traders leaned risk-on, and the charts backed them up, majors closed strong, resistance levels were tested, and altcoins showed signs of life. It wasn’t just optimism, it was follow-through.
Bitcoin holds above US$107K as geopolitical relief, ETF inflows, and institutional buying drive confidence. Japan eyes tax reform, Mastercard expands access, and macro data paints a mixed but stabilising picture.
Bitcoin regains footing above US$101K after briefly falling below US$100K, as geopolitical tensions shake markets. Stablecoin regulation, blockchain adoption, and slowing network activity defined a volatile week in crypto.
Approaching its all-time high, Bitcoin sees cautious trading despite a record US$167 billion in crypto fund assets in May, driven by investor diversification. Ethereum derivatives surpass Bitcoin volume. BlackRock’s ETF grows rapidly.
As BTC Markets celebrates its 12-year anniversary on 1 June, CEO Caroline Bowler steps down after a transformative tenure.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs are driving momentum beyond US$100k. Price is being supported by reduced miner selling and a strong wave of global interest from institutions, policymakers, and retail investors alike.
