Why Bitcoin is up 1.4% in the last hour
Analysis
Bitcoin rose 1.4% over the past hour as traders appeared to respond to a more constructive policy and sentiment backdrop, after Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said the “Clarity Act” will pass and that “Bitcoin bottom is in,” which may have boosted near-term risk appetite. The move also came amid volatile positioning after a hotter PPI print triggered roughly $363M in Bitcoin liquidations, with follow-through buying helping keep the uptrend intact, per AMBCrypto.
