Why Bitcoin is up 1.6% today
Analysis
Bitcoin rose 1.6% over the past 24 hours as investors reacted to signs of expanding mainstream access, with The Block reporting Charles Schwab opened a waitlist for direct bitcoin trading ahead of a targeted Q2 limited launch. That positive catalyst likely outweighed CoinDesk’s note that multiple ETF-flow and liquidity indicators suggest the market is “thinning from the inside,” which can temper upside but doesn’t preclude short-term gains.
