Bitcoin continued its steady upward movement over the past few hours following yesterday\u2019s sharp volatility, briefly reaching 81,350 dollars for the first time since late January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most large cap altcoins have shown limited movement on the daily timeframe. Ethereum and TRON recorded modest gains, while XRP, BNB, and Dogecoin edged slightly lower. Meanwhile, HYPE is trading above 43 dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin Reaches a New Local High<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin\u2019s attempt to break higher last week was rejected at 79,500 dollars, as sellers regained control and pushed the price below 75,000 dollars by Wednesday. This drop followed the decision by the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates unchanged for the third straight time in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The asset quickly recovered in the following days, testing 79,000 dollars again on Friday after reports emerged that Iran had sent a new peace proposal to the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the proposal was rejected, Bitcoin held steady near 78,000 dollars on Saturday and briefly climbed to 79,300 dollars on Sunday after another proposal reached Washington. That too was turned down, sending BTC back toward 78,000 dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Momentum shifted on Monday when buyers pushed Bitcoin above 80,000 dollars for the first time since January 31. The rally briefly stalled after reports claimed Iran had struck a US Navy vessel, causing BTC to drop to 78,400 dollars. However, once the report was denied, the cryptocurrency rebounded strongly, climbing past 81,300 dollars earlier today to set a new three month high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At present, Bitcoin is trading just below 81,000 dollars. Its market capitalization has climbed to nearly 1.62 trillion dollars, while its dominance over the altcoin market is approaching 59 percent, according to CoinGecko.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toncoin and MemeCore Lead Daily Gains<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The standout performers today are Toncoin and MemeCore, both posting gains of around 30 percent. TON has risen to approximately 1.80 dollars, while M has reached about 3.50 dollars. Morpho has also advanced, though more modestly, gaining about 10 percent to trade near 2.15 dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethereum is approaching 2,400 dollars after a slight increase, while TRON has climbed to 0.34 dollars despite ongoing legal challenges involving its founder Justin Sun and the Trump associated DeFi project WLFI. Interestingly, the WLFI token itself has gained around 7 percent on the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other assets such as Cardano, Bitcoin Cash, Monero, and HYPE have posted moderate gains between 2 and 3 percent. In contrast, XRP, BNB, DOGE, and Solana are slightly in the red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has increased by another 30 billion dollars, now exceeding 2.75 trillion dollars based on CoinGecko data.#crypto#cryptonews https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a> https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
