Why Bitcoin is up 1.5% today
Analysis
Bitcoin rose about 1.5% over the past 24 hours as it pushed back toward the $62K level alongside continued focus on ETF-related flows and positioning, which Cointelegraph highlighted in its market update. While another Cointelegraph report noted Hashdex is shutting its smallest Bitcoin ETF, the broader ETF-flow narrative remained a key driver of sentiment rather than a clear bearish catalyst.
